I'm going to power the image

An old saying said that a picture is worth a thousand words . Conventional wisdom often successful, and this time is no exception. But also in this century crazy beginning, where everything is global, instantaneous and universal images are a form of power.

"How do you explain a crazy pastor, church lost somewhere in Florida that has no more than 50 parishioners, can put together such a scandal with the symbolic gesture of burning Korans, which half of the leaders world has dealt it?

The power of the image. That image, that of a U.S. burning the Koran, if any, would be seen in every one of the world , and consequently lead to a resurgence of violence and hatred, by analogy, on the entire Western world.

will put another example. Internet Videotape of a girl about 15 years launching into a river about dog puppies while laughing cruelly. The world is horrified internetero, vows revenge against the girl , and 4 days to appear on video, some hackers forum 4chan, internet tracking, located as it is called the girl, where you live, what school studies who are your friends, parents, ... everything. And after exposing to public ridicule, give it to the police. Da

some respect think in these terms. This world of the snapshot is largely a great benefit to mankind, but also can be a double-edged sword, because the borders that existed no longer exist, and because each and every one is exposed, and we are an image we project ourselves.
