“It was hard for me to do the show (All-American Girl) because a lot of people didn't even understand the concept of Asian-American.

So I looked at the camera and said, "Um, they're changing over to an ABC affiliate."” PeopleSaidHardShowsGirlLanguageMorningConceptsCamerasNativeTransitionHostViewersAsianAsian AmericanNative Language Author:Margaret Cho
“The essence of a software entity is a construct of interlocking concepts.

“Television is a new, hard test of our wisdom. If we succeed in mastering the new medium it will enrich us. But it can also put our mind to sleep. We must not forget that in the past the inability to transport immediate experience and to convey it to others made the use of language necessary and thus compelled the human mind to develop concepts. For in order to describe things one must draw the general from the specific; one must select, compare, think. When communication can be achieved by pointing with the finger, however, the mouth grows silent, the writing hand stops, and the mind shrinks.” IfsThinkingWritingMindHumansMadeHardUseHandsPastOrderLanguageGrowsSleepForgetTelevisionCommunicationSucceedDrawsMouthsConceptsTestsSilentFingersMediumsCompareHuman MindCompelledInabilityPointingShrinksSelectTransportUse Of Language Book:Film as Art Source: Film as Art
