Thanks roachboy, you cogent comments are always appreciated. As you know, I pursue this question in many ways and prefer to raise it without arriving at conclusions. I don't see anything even resembling a resolution to the dystopianism of our identity/relationship to contemporary media. It requires, after all, psychoanalyzing ourselves. And there are far more impediments to doing this successfully than there is any evidence we can do it at all - or at least to the degree that seems necessary to me.
This is one of the big questions that I am very comfortable in raising but not very comfortable at all in accepting answers.
