I contemplate ongoing what temperature the internet is. It is usually high definition in multiple senses at once. TV the 50s and 60s was a cool medium due to the scan lines and shitty speaker on the side of the box (to which my dad taped a microphone to record the news doing his Ph.D. work at NYU). In U.M. I recall Marshall saying that "high definition TV would be a whole other thing." The internet is loaded with high def video combined with high def audio. Plus you touch the thing, and talk to it. So how would you start to work out this question, or are we beyond the hot/cool binary in addressing total digital conditions?
