Joel Plaskett's song on the subject is probably the best interpretation of 'hot and cool' media out there. Today, a special edition of The McLuhan Newsletter to share it with you.
I was at UCSD in 1980 and I signed up for classes in the media department, but when I mentioned McLuhan, they said, we don't pay attention to him. I had a serious argument with them and withdrew from the program. I still want to create a joint visual arts/media scholarship using the chapter on Movies in UM as a guide.

yes, I agree, it's much more convenient not to pay attention to McLuhan.
