Portable TV (public space private)

[see: Pocket TVs failed before. What's changed?]

Whilst speaking about why portable TV might be accepted now, Tom Dunmore (Stuff magazine) made some interesting comments about young people and public/private space.

Tom Dunmore: "For young people, because they may live at home with their parents, they don't have much private space so they make the public space private,"

Tom Dunmore: "When people are travelling around London you need something like the iPod to create a personal space because it has disintegrated with so many people around. So people need to immerse themselves in something like a virtual world."

Tom Stewart (psychologist): "You can watch a television programme and you don't feel as engaged as you do listening to a radio programme, when you feel like a participant," he says. "A good DJ makes you feel like they're talking to you. Video is a more one-way experience."
