Different place for the different people who converge there, and
even for the same person at different moments.
Over the past two decades my work has been primarily focused on how
communication technologies affect attention structures, applying this
model to face-to-face conversation (2002), retrospective narrative
(Jones and Candlin, 2003), television (Jones, 1996), photography
(Jones, 2009c), collaborative writing (Jones et al., 2012), text-based
computer mediated interaction (Jones, 2005b, 2013a), televideo
computer mediated interaction (Jones, 2008b) and newer forms of
social media (Jones and Hafner, 2012).
Communication technologies ondiscourse in placeis that they allow us
to transcend the here and now, to make the discourse produced at
one moment in one place available at other moments and in other
places. This first occurred with the development of writing and later
the printing press, with dramatic consequences for human history
and consciousness (Ong, 1988). The development of technologies
like the camera, the phonograph, the telephone, and television
represented another dramatic change, allowing us to project not
just our words, but our voices and images of our bodies across
time and space.
The more monofocal orientation of print has given way to the
polyfocal orientation of the internet .
