@lukeburgis Know of Mark Stahlman, President of the Center for the Study of Digital Life? He guest-edited a special issue on McLuhan for the Catholic literary journal, Renascence: "I think we're now ready for the breakthrough that McLuhan lived his life waiting for." youtu.be/oPP1J37i2Bk?t=1022

@moltmannjuergen “Though he never coined the phrase, 'the medium is the messiah' may have been McLuhan’s ultimate perceptual insight. The 'medium is the message' may have been merely its conceptual phrasing.” - Read Mercer Schuchardt, The Reformation as Media Event, Second Nature @theccsn
