The Medium is... different

I have to say reading the Medium is the Massage was a very different experience from a standard text. I found it interesting how the author used a mixture of imagery and text make his point. Sometimes using one or the other, other times just tiny bits of each. I guess the way its presented can send a different message.

Yes I agree with you.

A picture doesn't necessarily need a lot of words or any, it can tell the story iteself.

I enjoyed browsing through the book. It gets the imagination going.

I hadn't really thought of it in that sense as odd as it sounds. I mean about the picture telling a story. It's an interesting point I saw the pictures more as enforcing the text accompying them.
