Both Capote and Sayers participated in the discussion with McLuhan. This recording was made on reel-to-reel audio tape in 1970 and directly transferred to computer in 2005. Unfortunately, the exact date of the show was not noted, except that the show did take place before Christmas. All commercials and breaks were removed from McLuhan's appearance. --- The McLuhan Institute exists to explore and understand the personal and social effects and implications of technology, following the pioneering work of Marshall McLuhan.

Quarantime! takes its inspiration from the feverish activity going on across the innovation landscape, yet under the radar of the national media. Cable News provides a breathless feed of White House statements, public health statistics, and Federal Reserve actions. We want to focus on the contributions of scientists, artists, social entrepreneurs, and communities from which we all can learn. The show is entertainment and showcase of our collective ingenuity and innovation, curious and connecting. It’s built for a moment when our human, social, emotional and media needs are different than they were only yesterday. Its aspiration is to build a foundation and connections for a more resilient tomorrow that can emerge once this crisis ends and we build our future. --- The McLuhan Institute exists to explore and understand the personal and social effects and implications of technology, following the pioneering work of Marshall McLuhan.

I'd published a book in French about the Watergate scandal – my publisher was eager to have another book by me. He suggested, because that was all the rage at the time, that I do what we called a book interview with someone. You would do an in-depth interview and write the book in the first person and then the person interviewed would sign it. So I said Marshall McLuhan. --- The McLuhan Institute exists to explore and understand the personal and social effects and implications of technology, following the pioneering work of Marshall McLuhan.

Subscribe to TMI Newsletter for all updates: https://mcluhaninstitute.substack.com/welcome This recording is of Eric McLuhan's contribution (and a few questions/answers/comments following) to a panel at the MEA annual conference in June 2017. The panel's title refers to a book which had at the time recently been published, somewhat of a reaction to Eric McLuhan's book 'Media and Formal Cause' [Eric and Marshall McLuhan, NeoPoiesis Press, 2011]. Eric's book itself was a reaction to a discussion among people on the MEA mailing list which, according to Eric, forced him to delve deep into the subject to put the matter at rest - at least for and to his own satisfaction.   A few years later, presumably for their own satisfaction, several members of the MEA, (including Anton, Logan, and Strate, editors of the books and members of this panel heard at the end) published 'Taking up McLuhan's Cause: Perspectives on Media and Formal Causality', to which Eric McLuhan wrote an introduction.   It is a bit of a full-circle moment, as Eric was annoyed into researching and writing M/FC by the MEA, then wrote an intro to their published response, then closed the panel resulting from the book at the MEA meeting in 2017 - setting the record (as he saw it) straight while giving insight into the history of Formal Cause (as we know it), it's use to Marshall McLuhan and himself, and more.   Recorded June 24th 2017, at the 18th annual conference of the Media Ecology Association, held at St. Mary's College at Moraga, California. --- The McLuhan Institute exists to explore and understand the personal and social effects and implications of technology, following the pioneering work of Marshall McLuhan.
