Ben W"The basics of communication presented in this 1953 introduction to "the era of communication" (aka the information age) are still true in 2003. Transmission, noise, redundancy, distortion... misunderstanding."

Shanta RohseAn instructional film created in 1958 for IBM by Ray & Charles Eames with music by Elmer Bernstein. "Communication is the responsibility of decision all the way down the line."

Joan Vinall-CoxFascinating and well worth the time for a number of reasons:
1. The information about communications, including art & symbol, is still relevant & instructive.
2. It was made in 1953 and the image quality, language use, vocal tonalities, and pacing are anthropologically fascinating. via Stephen Downes & Alec Couros - http://educationaltechnology.ca/couros/1349 -

Madeline BrownstoneThis film was made by Charles and Ray Eames, which makes it more intelligent and visually striking than most educational films. It deals with the semantics of communication, breaking down the concept into a flow chart of choosing, coding, sending, receiving, decoding, and understanding messages. This is applied to modes of communication as simple as ÃÂone if by land and two if by seaÃÂ and as complex as billions of neurons firing in the human nervous system. Visually, these concepts are portrayed with a collage of animation, film clips, photographs, electronically-generated images, and images from famous works of art
