For example, if he/she falls for the demagogic program of a leaflet, he/she is somehow himself/herself responsible for this program. He/she is still somehow a partner, not just the sender's material, deciphering the message from the alphabet's series. >Code/Flusser. Different is the case of the Brazilian coffee pickers: they see the pictures isolated on television. >Culture/Flusser, >Images/Flusser, >Communication/Flusser._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
