Amphitheatre discourse

One of Flusser's archetypal discourse forms.
Here, the wall at the back of the “stage” (of the theater discourse) has been removed so that the discourse can retrieve its “cosmic openness” (kosmische Offenheit). The discourse spreads indefinitely outward from a central point. “Examples for this structure are mass media such as press, television and posters. But its principle is the circus of the Roman coliseum. (Kommunikologie p.27)
