The author, Piotr Gwiazda, comments in the interview contained in
this book on the title Messages: "The first association will be -
perhaps inevitably - with the phone, email, and text messages we
send and receive on a daily basis. Also the messages that "pour out
of various devices" (as in Muriel Rukeyser's poem): news stories,
speeches, alerts, warning labels, traffic and weather reports, TV
and radio commercials, those targeted ads on Google and Facebook.
Communications overload - but with a touch of magic to it. Again,
we are both consumers and producers of messages: we post, we blog,
we update, we upload. But I was also thinking about the broader
connotations of the word. After all, messages can be exchanged in
the course of a simple conversation."
