Crouch_'Culture Intercom'

I actually really enjoyed this technological manifesto, it was over all a good read and I anticipated what was going to talked about next. Although,  I don't necessarily agree with all of it. You can tell right from the beginning that he seems to have a great interest in motion pictures as an art form. He wants to use it to as a global means of communication. Telling readers to film their experiences in the world and turn it into art. I liked how he spoke about the art form of motion pictures and how it could possibly change the world.

He wanted to achieve this advanced level of human understanding through the use of technologies, asking you to stray away from the normal use of language referring it to something destructive. I do believe that advances in technology are important, but spoken communication is one of the reasons we have even gotten to make such advances.

I was started picturing his description of the "Movie Murals" in the "Ethos-Cinema", but I began to wonder if his dislike towards the emotional-sociology approach of things was deep rooted and had a personal connection to him. All in all he was warning everyone to be prepared for the future, and in order to be prepared had to turn to international picture language. Overall very interesting!
