Hearing is believing

In the clip prof. Sloan touches on a few points that really tie into the theme of the class. Which is how the medium by which we talk to people is changing. With the technology today people have the access to various different mediums to communicate to their friends and peers. In the clip Prof. Sloan touches on how if you write something or text/email to someone they can interpret it in so many different ways and they may not be understanding exactly whay you are saying. If heard the person knows exactly what you mean by the way you say it. He states " how something is said is infinitly more important that what is said" which shows that someone doesn't truly know what you mean inless they hear it. Then when he gives the example of the ad on a radio oposed to if it was on tv. This is such a good example because it allows you to make your own mental images on what you are hearing. Just like Prof sloan said tv tells you what to see but audio allows you to make your own visual. These examples given are great for the main point of the audio clip which was how important the audio medium really is.
