evidence

“Evidence looks into the eyes of children watching television – in this case Walt Disney’s “Dumbo”. Though engaged in a daily routine, THEY APPEAR DRUGGED, RETARDED, LIKE THE PATIENTS OF A MENTAL HOSPITAL. Evidence is about the behavior of children watching television – an activity whose physiological aspects have been overlooked in the current controversy surrounding television.”

“Unlike people in a movie theatre, where images are projected onto a screen, television viewers become PREY to the television’s own light impulses, they go into an altered state – a transfixed condition where the eyes, the mind, the breathing of the subject is CLEARLY UNDER THE CONTROL OF AN OUTSIDE FORCE. In a poetic sense and without exaggerating one might say that the television technology is eating the subjects who sit before its gaze.”
