| Sumario: | The article discusses consciousness and ways it may change. General semantics is cited as a system that urges observation of the outside world rather than internal impressions. It mentions various understandings of consciousness including animism, those of organized religions, and the false consciousness of rigid ideology. It sees future consciousness as affected by the kaleidoscopic nature of electronic media, as current and past consciousness has been affected by the linearity of books. |
