Hard News: Moving on, in reply to Chris Waugh,
sieved, screened, strained & riddled?
nothing is real
unless it’s filtered
through the media.…and nothing to get hung about.
Reality is easy with eyes closed…*Reality mediated by devices!

The only way forward!

OnPoint: Legal Context, in reply to Ross Mason,
restive missive or Shrodinger's catalogue entry?
Does a letter sitting in a letter box constitute it being “at rest”? In the postie’s bike bag? Sitting on my table unopened? Opened, read and put on the table?
Neither particle, nor wave, the letter exists at all points in the journey (alpha to omega) and none of them...

Hard News: Moving on, in reply to Geoff Lealand,
savour(y)ing the memories…
Should we express our disappointment, in the strongest terms, in a message to TV3? I will miss the sausage rolls but that is not the real issue.
In this context that could be taken as a PAS-try…

Iching for change…
Sorry to hear you are moving on, Russell,
or ‘rejuvenating your time’ or somesuch,
as the Government might say.hopefully you are not comletely
thrown out on the streetBut you are in good company,
and perhaps the move will give you time to …so…
I guess change is the only constant in life…
Past time NZOA got their own platform
The NZOA model seems, to me, to be an incomplete arc.
It invests large amounts of money into helping creating content, often quality content, of lasting significance, useful & illuminating cultural record, etc
But retains no interest in it’s longevity (I know remit – but that’s where the job-half-done bit comes in…)
Much gets lost behind paywalls (Heartland TV), some gets to NZ on Film, but where does the rest go?
Virtually into the aether – access gone – seems such a waste.
I know there is a Media 7 You Tube channel – but how long is that guaranteed for – You Tube could start charging or disappear…
and what happens to the Media 3 Facebook page – just a ‘Status’ change? or could TV3 make you take it down?
it seems fraught…
still they say it’s best to be thrown into choppy waters, less surface impact damage when there’s a bit of chaos when crossing the border between media (air/water)…Is there a ‘Best of Media7/3’ DVD, for future media courses around the country, and other punters?
I suppose GCSB and NSA have copies somewhere….
Now that would be a very good use of their server capacity!Meanwhile, on other platforms…. Luckily for mediaphiles Mediawatch is still there, has broad shoulders, and does excellent work!
As an afterthought, does the show’s demise mean you can publicise your viewer numbers again, to put the lie to Coleman’s assertions in that area – especially as other ministers are currently being shown to have ‘gamed the system’, and worse perhaps…
