Media Virus
hidden agendas in popular culture
Book • 1994
Douglas Rushkoff's "Media Virus" explores the ways in which ideas and information spread through culture, similar to biological viruses.
Rushkoff uses the metaphor of a virus to describe how memes and other cultural phenomena can rapidly spread and influence large groups of people.
The book examines the power of media to shape our perceptions and beliefs, and how this power can be used for both positive and negative purposes.
Rushkoff's analysis delves into the dynamics of cultural transmission and the ways in which media can be used to create social change.
The book's insights remain relevant in today's digital age, where the spread of information and ideas is faster and more widespread than ever before.
It encourages critical thinking about the messages we consume and the impact they have on our lives.
