: Yes, but not to the extend the news network, TV, Hollywood and newspaper have been rotting out brains. In this current state, internet remains as a choice of medium. However, the future of the medium lies in internet than anything else.

: "Internet addiction" is such a vague term. Are we talking about web addiction? Social media? MySpace? Twitter? YouTube? I agree that some people spend way too much time in their web browser instead of doing their jobs or raising their families. But we have gone through simmilar problems with newspapers, radio, telephones, TV and other media.

: I think the answer would be no in spite of the ambiguous use of "internet addiction", as it assumes that everybody uses it in the same way and for a single purpose.

If anything, certain usage methodologies (for lack of a better word) increase both the level of knowledge and response time without affecting an individual's motivation or incentive for learning about the world in a more traditional way, such as trial and error, etc.

What is visual communication about, if not to subvert the familiar, shed new light on commonplace situations. We have the possibility to store entire libraries in a pocket-sized disk, but our own memory is constantly written and deleted by the overwhelming flow of images, rushing through our very eyes. This has resulted in us ignoring and dismissing a large amount of images a priori, without looking closely at the meaning they possibly contain. It is our responsibility to remedy this consumption. One of the solutions, is to alter the amount, content and quality of what we are bombarded wit
