While taking a look at otr.com I found my way to the science fiction, and being a big scifi fan decided to listen to Flash Gordon all the way through. At first it was hard to get into the words, since we are so used to visuals. and sometimes it was just hard to hear, or if you didn't pay attention we might get a little confused, but since it was aimed at young kids it was very simplistic and i got into it pretty quickly. i really like the fact that they had commentary and the voices of the characters. the plot was kinda amusing and certain lines such as " love me or die", and " the merciless Ming", made the story ever more exaggerated. i could imagine a 10 year old getting quiet into it. praying that the earth girl will be saved and the earth won't be destroyed. the music and sound effects were quite intense and varied enough to keep things interesting.
In class Santiago made a comment that the fourth wall make you feel safe when watching tv or movies. but when you are listening to radio the sound can invade you. I find that very true, and even lately have been paying more attention to the sounds around me. both from reality and tv.
I also looked and read on the radio news. the snippet on the pearl harbour page was showing how a sports broadcast was interrupted by an announcement of the bombing of pearl harbour. this made me realise that sports wasn't really effected by tv, i mean its definitely televised, but its still widely broadcasted over the radio still. I even know a few people who perfer radio still to tv.
