Wearing a
book
Woodi: What drove our quest
to develop media?
Marshall: Kings commissioned effigies, churches told stories, and now it’s business diverting us with entertainment and games. Ads are the cave art of the twentieth century.
Woodi: Where will it end?

Woodi: Where will it end?
Marshall: In the future. Art is
anything you can get away with now. Maybe we will be wearing books soon. Think

Whatever human being go through daily; Morning, afternoon, evening and night are art. circumstance, inter-discipline and ads are art. Knowing how to appreciate, then we know what the beauty is.
Are you suggesting the model is a parallel for individual lives?
We start the day with a rigid rule like breakfast.
By afternoon we are religiously following a routine.
In the evening we indulge in commercial entertainment.
A day that echoes the evolution of culture?
