[-empyre-] social media as revolutionary technology?

[Johannes Birringer]

PS.
I think i was not entirely evocative enough in the street dialectics i wanted to bring in,
away from the hi-tech concepts floated here on "design" of public interactives, or the  
metropolitan spectacle of BIG SCREENS. 
Jon Winet thinks of these "screens as collective and individually electronically-mediated
experiences". 

Maybe I misunderstood. But I don't think so.  Big Screens have not propelled me in my life, ever. 


Yes,  where is the low  streetlife?   (Dale asked this. 
<<Our use of mobile devices was very much to enhance the discovery of a place and to some extent the place's discovery of you>>)

when and how does it discover you? 

and all those rural roads?
