	Interview: Derrick de Kerckhove by Blake Harris (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		De Kerckhove's close association with Marshall McLuhan during the 1970s, as translator, assistant and co-author, gave him privileged access to the working mind of one of this century's pre-eminent media philosophers.
		As McLuhan did before him, de Kerckhove contends that what appear to be marginal qualities of the media often have the most powerful effects.
		de Kerckhove: Well, for one thing, the generalized impact of electronic communication is decentralization -- so the regionalization of government, the devolution of centralized government to the periphery, of central institutions to their outsourcing -- this is to be expected generally.

		De Kerckhove is the director of the McLuhan Program in Culture and Technology at the University of Toronto and#8211; the same chair McLuhan occupied before his death in 1980.
		De Kerckhove is a driving force behind the development of media and telecommunications installations aimed at instilling global consciousness.
		Derrick de Kerckhove: McLuhan would have enjoyed the paradox that, on the one hand, mobile telephony provides us with fantastic freedom while, on the other hand, weand#8217;re completely a prisoner of a system where we are in touch all the time.

		Derrick de Kerckhove : One of the most beautiful thing I saw at Imagina was a simulation of climate in accelerated time with a three-dimensional model of the planet ; it gave the impression of there being a kind of extraordinarily fluid envelope around the Earth which was placed in some sort of cylinder.
		Derrick de Kerckhove : In Le Bleu du Ciel touch is not a critical question in any case, neither is sound, because we can’t hear up ther ; but one needs to set up some sort of mental scenery and Le Bleu du Ciel is just that scenery.
		Derrick de Kerckhove : The indistinct is necessary in such cases, the blurred contours ; I don’t know their work but I like the name of a group from Marseilles : « Brouillard précis » (precise fog).

	Derrick de Kerckhove: Connecting Intelligence
		For de Kerckhove, that primarily involves the ultra-high technology and mass culture of the First World.
		de Kerckhove is especially taken by virtual reality (VR), which he sees as a multisensory electronic extension of self, and by neural networks, collections of self-adjusting elements that "learn" correct responses to inputs.
		And the general public will find nothing that empowers them so that technology and culture happen for them and not to them, so that their choices are not merely restricted to what bells and whistles they can add onto their toys....

	THE SKIN OF CULTURE

		De Kerckhove says the interactive/networked world is simultaneously exhilarating and frightening, pointing to its ability to change knowledge and our interaction with knowledge.
		Edmontonians in particular are well-situated to be leaders, says de Kerckhove, thanks to excellent telecommunications infrastructure and the corporate vision being shown by Telus and its CEO/President George Petty.
		Unflustered by accusations that he is too enthusiastic about this new technology/economy, de Kerckhove firmly believes "we need to look at all possible solutions and the full possibilities," good and bad.

		If our way of thinking, a way of thinking completely applied to construction, can also give something to other disciplines, then why not?But the fact that this book is a treasure trove of ideas makes up only one aspect and not even the most important one at that.
		This is a lesson to be considered again and again: on the other hand, he has already written it down in one of his principles.
		Regarding the new information space that De Kerckhove calls Cyber (the battle for the name is however still open), we can only begin to catch a glimpse of a few characteristics.
