  7. Re:LOL! on Tapeheads and the Quiet Return of VHS · · Score: 1

    there is also a more personal element to Vhs, tape, records. their time based mediums. if you did someone a tape it took at least as long as the movie or album to do it. digital isn't so not only personal but physical.. if anything digital represents a further step toward a less physical culture. someing not bound by object phyicality.
