in Austria, exhausted and cold, walking around by myself outside the "porn castle", I go deep in thought about my appearance on the Taugshow the night before. the guest before me, a counterculture icon, thought that the present state of what he called 'information overload' on the web was a really bad thing. I realized in this video that I disagree in a very strong way.part of the video, around 2 minutes in, the audio cut out some of what I said because of the wind. I don't have a great camera, nor the means to get one right now, and I can't edit the video after it's shot, so I transcribed the bits of my little speech that are hard to hear. about 2 minutes in, read along here:(...) with media especially with news and information, we've just been taking what we've been given, and we have no tools or what we need to evolve, and adapt the tools to be able to sift through the information we get. and now that there's so much information it's forcing us to become consumers of information and consumers of our media, to *shop* for our media, and shop for information and shop for our news -- and the sources we get it from. and I think that that's really powerful. so, I'm all for information overload, because I think it can only make us better.
