Description:

Marshall McLuhan, with Jaqueline Tyrwhitt and Gyorgy Kepes, responded to crises in the 60s and 70s like what we now face: human-to-human violence on a planetary scale; catastrophic human to non-human relations; imbalanced human-to-machine relations. The three map out paths of hope as well as danger zones--geographies speaking to present stressors.
