TV PRISONERS AND MENTAL

"The real culture is not the accumulation of information via television, in our computers or the Internet. The real culture only exists in the state to question the meaning of life and to serve and the search for values \u200b\u200bthat constitute the meaning of human life on the planet and society. "



of Valerio Pignatta


Statistics tell us that on average we spend watching television between 11 and 14 years of our lives, corrupt accomplices sofas that the "decency" has planted in every home. But thank goodness there are those who in those 14 years ago a lot of other things. Think ... 14 years ... And they say that TV does, however, know the world ... In 14 years if one can know the "real" world, traveling, talking, touching, smelling ... that it is far, I would say that 14 years of segregation in the cell-seated family to "voyeurizzare" the reality of others with the excuse of being a culture.


But unfortunately we got to the point where we confuse junk culture and information. The real culture is not accumulation of information via television, in our computers or the Internet. The true culture exists only on condition that question the meaning of life and to serve and the search for values \u200b\u200bthat constitute the meaning of human life on the planet and society. Here are some thoughts of well-known intellectuals who were interviewed on television and its relationship with human society:


Approval


'[...] is a television transmission system is based on the idea that all human beings are essentially similar [...]. The TV will not recognize the lush diversity of its users. People make thousands of different jobs, have varied hobbies, reading hundreds of thousands of different publications. The TV ignores the reality that human beings are not potatoes, but react to messages and interact.


People have little in common, if not its prurient interest and morbid fears and anxieties. Of course, television, aiming to reach the target at its lowest common denominator gets worse and worse every year. [...] The TV will die because it offends the very nature human tendency toward self-improvement and autonomy "(Gilder, George, Life after television. Big Brother will go the way of the dinosaurs? , Castelvecchi, Rome, 1995, p. 9)


"Basically, the job of TF1 [TeleFrance 1], for example, to help Coca-Cola to sell its product. To make a advertising message is perceived, it is necessary that the brain of the viewer is available . The vocation of our programs is its willingness to create this: If you entertain the viewer, relax and prepare the space between two messages. What we sell to Coca-Cola is a time of human brain available "(as the director of TF1, the leading French television channel, in Le Lay, Patrick, Les Dirigeants face au changement , Les Editions du Jour Huitième, 2004, quoted in Group Marcus of human misery Advertising , Eleuthera, Milano, 2006, p. 35)


"" The world is without gaps, "the city is terribly bored in the country, while the shows on the sea and mountains fill the eyes! Television thus cutting out and rebuilding the real ends up creating a screen between us and the real: "I see, but since there is the screen, the rest away. This becomes an attitude built: what I see on the street is as real as what I saw on the screen.


When I meet a beggar or an unemployed person, the address the same look superficial and disembodied living skeletons that appeal to the Third World that television shows regularly. It's exactly the end of the unreality: the confusion between the real world and the one shown.


Another aspect of the television not only leads to conformity and built by a relentless uniformity, but creates a climate general mental. "When thousands of images in our deep imprint in our ' unconscious', and all carry the same message Basically, this ends up being a crucial component of our behavior and our opinions."


The basic messages are violence and sex. [...] But the public really want these pictures? When I asked, viewers meet that television is "a commodity, a dream, and that does not matter", while admitting that they can not do without it. [...] Here is the main effect of television: kills the vacuum quilting brains (Porquet, Jean-Luc, Jacques Ellul, the man who had planned (almost) everything , Jaca Book, Milan, 2008, pp. 168-170)


Domain


"Nature of the picture tube and the radio frequency spectrum has shaped the power and limitations of television as a medium for information and as a cultural force. These technologies have imposed that television was a top-down (high-low), in electronic architecture, master-slave (master-slave): Many centers in transmission generate programs for millions of passive receivers, or dumb terminals. The scarcity of spectrum forces the television to adopt a centralized system, limited to relatively few channels, with no two-way communication "(Gilder, George, Life after television. Big Brother will go the way of the dinosaurs? , Castelvecchi , Rome, 1995, pp. 27-28)


"Most of the problems in front of which are also the parents do not have to deal directly with the TV itself, but with the control exercised over it . [...] One immediate solution would be ready to hand us, but it seems that many do not have ever thought: turn off the TV. [...] They do not really want to solve the problem. [...] Allow your child to three years to go around with a sharp knife? The permit to cross the street alone? [...] Obviously the child understands when you say one thing firmly "(Winn, Marie, Drugs television , Armando, Rome, 1978, pp. 177-178)


Reality


"Nothing escapes. There is always a camera hidden somewhere. It can be filmed without knowing it. You may be asked to redo everything in front of any television channel. It is believed to exist in the original version, not knowing that this is nothing but a special case of dubbing, a version for the happy few exceptional.


It is at the mercy of a retransmission snapshot of all the facts and all the gestures on any channel. one time we lived this as a police control. Today we regard it as an advertising "(Baudrillard, Jean, The perfect crime. The reality TV killed?, Raffaello Cortina Editore, Milan, 1996, p. 32)


" "Live from reality! Visit this strange world! Treat yourself to the thrill the real world. " [...] The subject of antiques seems to have a real object in contrast with industrial objects, but it is only a foreshadowing of the time when the minimum detectable object will be valuable as a relic of Egypt "(Baudrillard, Jean, Dial M for Murder perfect. The reality TV killed?, Raffaello Cortina Editore, Milan, 1996, p. 49)


"Initially [the image] a fiction built around us: when we move away from the increasingly natural, when we lost contact with reality "that was the substantial reality of our lives," the world of images making us think we still live in a world of ' water, wind, trees and animals. " The number of television shows on exotic animals and unspoiled open spaces will grow to the collapse of biodiversity and the disappearance of virgin spaces (Porquet, Jean-Luc, Jacques Ellul, the man who had predicted ( almost) everything , Jaca Book, Milan, 2008, p. 167)


Culture


"It is true that a picture can be worth a thousand words. But it is even more true that a million images do not give a single concept. Summarized in three points. First, the view is not known. Second, the knowledge can be helped by seeing. Third, the fact remains that to know that for concepts (known in the strong sense) everything unfolds beyond the visible. I'm sorry to see the remote but it is not so "(Sartori, Giovanni, Homo videns, Laterza, Roma-Bari, 1999, p. 149)
