We complain daily about our framing galore media culture.
Do you want to help in CHANGING it?
Do trees ‘send’ us ‘messages’, when they communicate?
“This book discusses the systemic, philosophical answers, which media scholars propose here, and the new, post-systemic, scientific alternative."
They are quite different answers.
As the (signed but a new) author I need financial support to cover the contractual "advancement" by the author on the production costs of this book (a total of £3000).
'Tipping' the status quo in the content and media knowledge domain doesn't come free. But tipping it will be beneficial to all who communicate. Since we are all part of nature. We all communicate! But we do not all produce propaganda in order to do so. Whereas in the systemic media literature the words 'communication' and "propaganda" mean the same thing.
In scientific observation however, producing propaganda is never(!) the same as how, where and when propaganda "communicates".
What "a communication" in nature is, has been an enigma in media studies since the day that advertising and marketing rhetorics fused together into 'communication management'.
That's why, officially, media scholars frame 'communication' as either 'a sent message' or 'the unknowable'.
My book "Trees Send Us Messages, Don't They?" refutes that Classical Narrative.
Trees communicate. But do they 'send' us 'messages'? Really?
