Bob Dobbs’ Diaries: Feb. 18/1965 (Toronto)



Dobbs: Mars, in your writing you use the symbolic cluster of Sex, Death, and Technology. Don't you think you should add Thought to that grouping?

McLuhan: Yes, I've been doing that lately. I indicate this when I say students want insights, not packages. From instruction to discovery.

McLuhan and Bob entered the movie house on Bloor Street to see THE SOUND OF MUSIC. McLuhan left after ten minutes muttering that entertainment is the new torture, but Bob stayed and traveled to the Old Country.
