The Monday Morning Memo

Okay, now watch what happens 20 years later when some focus groups are gathered to evaluate whether or not this might be a good way to introduce Apple’s new iCube in 2004. None of the people in the focus groups were aware the commercial had already aired to great acclaim.

Random Quote:

“* Bal·kan·ize /ˈbôlkəˌnīz/ – verb – divide (a region or body) into smaller mutually hostile states or groups… “ambitious neighbors would snatch pieces of territory, Balkanizing the country”

In America, the collective stories that created a shared culture are being rewritten to fit the current zeitgeist of self-selected tribes, or completely scrapped and replaced by fractured fairy tales.

We are Balkanizing our culture; “e pluribus unum” is just Latin graffiti inked on paper money; it doesn’t exist, even as an ideal to strive for. And this Balkanizing is being accelerated and exploited by politicians, media and big business, all willing to sell their wares – and their souls – to curry favor and grab their cut.”
