Media Life is a course intended for undergraduate students across campus. Its goal is to make people aware of the role that media play in their everyday life. The key to understanding a "media life" is to see our lives not as lived WITH media (which would lead to a focus on media effects and media-centric theories of society), but rather IN media (where the distinction between what we do with and without media dissolves).

- Why worry about media industries? Berlusconi & Baywatch Effects; Outsourcing BERLUSCONI: Media Ownership = Political Power BAYWATCH: Media Commercialization = Displacement of Public Discourse by Distribution of Commodifiable Entertainment Products He is the third longest serving Prime Minister of the Italian Republic (President of the Council of Ministers of Italy), a position he has held at three different times; 1994–1995, 2001–2006 and since 2008.[1] He is the leader of the Forza Italia political movement, a centre-right party he founded in 1993. Before the 2008 Italian general elections he announced his intention to establish a new political party, People of Freedom (Popolo Delle Libertà), to be constituted by the merging of Forza Italia with the National Alliance party (Alleanza Nazionale), and other right wing parties later in 2008. His victory in the 2008 general elections paved the way for the fourth term as prime minister.

- Beate Uhse AG: It was founded by former German war-time pilot and sex pioneer Beate Uhse-Rotermund in 1946 and started out as a distibutor of pamphlets on family planning called Schrift X (roughly: Writing X or Paper X) which was a major success. In 1962 the company opened the world's first sex shop in Flensburg. When pornography was finally made legal in West Germany in 1976, Beate Uhse was well-prepared with a widely known and respected brand name and an established mail order business. http://www1.dubistdeutschland.de/dbd/servlet/page/Deutschland_aus_Kinderaugen/home http://dubistdeutschland.amazink.de/
- Ulrike Marie Meinhof (1934-1976) was a German left-wing militant and co-founder of the RAF or Red Army Faction (Rote Armee Fraktion) after originally working as a journalist for the monthly magazine konkret. In the next two years Meinhof participated in the various bank robberies and bombings executed by the group. On 9 May 1976 she was found hanged by a rope, fashioned from a towel, in her cell in the Stammheim Prison. The official findings were not accepted by many in the RAF[5] and other militant organisations, and there are still some who doubt their accuracy and believe that she was murdered by the authorities. http://www1.dubistdeutschland.de/dbd/servlet/page/Deutschland_aus_Kinderaugen/home http://dubistdeutschland.amazink.de/

But ALSO: high pressure, hard at work, busy, dynamic AND: IT/technology driven, office work, desktop work So in Media Work two contradictory claims about the future of work come together: high-tech rationalized/bureaucratized/deskbound knowledge work versus 2. flexible, creative, dynamic, open, fluid “work as play”

Third step: Equipping the households with data collecting electronic devices. Fourth step: Day-to-day data transmission from the households to the computerized ''library'' of AGB Nielsen Media Research. Fifth step: Data processing and creation - out of thousands of elements - one consistent database. Sixth step: Determining, second by second, what programs were broadcast by individual stations. Seventh step: Providing customers with files, which, when used with appropriate software, give a full picture of the TV audience.
