Phenomenology is observing different subjects when they experience something. When only listening to the McLuhan video I didn't really understand what he was saying, I don't really know if it was because the video was old or anything but it seemed really blurry to me. I also couldn't really focus because I didn't have a focus point and I ended up doing something else. When I was watching it however I have a point to focus on and I know what he's saying. His movement and everything makes me feel that he's enthusiastic about the topic he's talking about and I can focus on it. I remember in class there were different people experiencing the same thing as me but there were people that held a different viewpoint in which they liked to listen to it more than just watch him.

I felt that the topic of the clip along with the quality made it hard to understand with audio alone. I understood it better when I watched the video clip along with the audio.
