This pretty little video reminds me somewhat, in a poor-man kind of way, of the early, pioneering work on pixilation by Norman McLaren. More importantly, to me, it highlights Marshall McLuhan's famous claim from the 1960s that forms the title of this post.

nice video..good to see you blogging again..
Sahil, you HAVE to read 'This Is Your Brain On Music' by Daniel Levitin - the bastard (alongside Levi Strauss), it would appear, has preempted me completely! (And there I was thinking I'd had my 'one' big idea of a lifetime. Typical.) I've often wondered what it was about a tune that 'got' me. This composition is very typical - even though I haven't heard it before, I know where it is going, if you know what I mean. BUT, I can't dislike it all the same, and herein lies the beauty of this manipulation. The video is delightful - I can't think of a more apt epithet. Can you?
found it on torrentz as an ebook! downloading it now :)
and, no, delightful seems, definitely, to hit the spot ;)
