THE METAMEDIUM AND THE DOUBLE BIND

“All those people who seek to control the behavior of large numbers of other people work on the experiences of those other people,” Once people can be induced to experience a situation in a similar way, they can be expected to behave in similar ways.”
R.D. Laing, in The Politics of Experience.

THE METAMEDIUM

THE PRISONERS DILEMMA

“Look at it, every day more lusers than users, keyboards and screens turning into nothin but portals to Web sites for what Management wants everybody addicted to, shopping games, jerking off, streaming endless garbage-”
― Thomas Pynchon, Bleeding Edge

IDENTITY BECOMES CURRENCY: MAKE IT

DOUBLE BIND

EXAMPLES OF DOUBLE BIND

a. Son: Can we go to the park and play soccer?
b. Father: What a beautiful day for working in the garden.
The second method of disqualification is sleight-of-hand. Sleight-of-hand occurs when the second response (b) answers the first (a) but changes the content of the previous statement:
a. Daughter: We have always gotten along well.
b. Mother: Yes, I’ve always loved you. . .
In the above example, the mother has responded to her daughter but has switched the issue from getting along well to love.
Literalization, the third type of disqualification, occurs when the content of the previous statement (a) is switched to a literal level in the second statement (b) with no acknowledgment of the change of frame:
a. Son: You treat me like a child.
b. Father: But you are my child.
The fourth method, status disqualification, happens when a person uses either personal status or superior knowledge to imply that the previous message is not valid:
a. Mother: I have observed that he doesn’t play very well with the other children.
b. Son: But I do, Mama!
a. Mother: He doesn’t realize because he is so little . . .

THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THAT SITUATION ARE:
