I do not think video upclose works. Once printing became established, almost from the beginning, there were cheap broadsides, etc. This worries me in an age when over half the people in the world haven't made a phone call and don't have electricity. Here's the good news for those of us who love the image and suspect that half the furor has to do with those not great with images. There are programs like Flash which cut the file size down in amazing proportions as they are done fractionally.
Vector graphics is the key phrase.
Funny, visual artists often want no reference to the book or page, literary artists want no reference to the image as that is elitist and takes up too much room, while they are often the most verbal and thus the most aggressive. Some of these issues are subtle and never directly addressed. The most underrated act of aggression is the written word. I have witnessed this on several lists in which an individual takes over by virtue of a prolix style. The third world.
