Abstract:
Printed media have a highly consolidated visual infrastructure. But printed (preponderant) visual part has been wrongly considered as coinciding with its whole. That is why they have been recently massively translated into another universal medium (the digital) through a direct process. What is missed, much more than nostalgia, is a small perceptual universe that is instinctually unfolded every time the physical medium is used, while it is misdirected if not negated in its new screen-based embodiment.
