# Medium Marshall McLuhan (1964) famously said: The message of any new medium is the change of scale or pace or pattern it introduces to human affairs. We ask: What is the message of economic media? What change of scale or pace or pattern it introduces to human affairs? --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
