Gyvenimas šiapus ir anapus ekrano
Life on this and the other side of the screen

Summary/Abstract: The article deals with TV and IT in the perspective of existential creation. The author asks if the pictures of the media could be the factors of our existential creation. The author opposes the life’s art and the life’s style. The first one is related with the dialectics of thought and existence. The latter one is related with the levelling influence of the media’s scenes. The structure of existence is not only linguistic, but also visual. According to the author, the creative environment is supported by the interconnection of existential pictures which are different in their nature (reminiscences, dreams, aspirations, imaginations). According to the main thesis, our existential project is formed in the fire of pictures’ different planes. This thesis follows from the supposition that both our living world and existence in it are visual. The other theses are as follows: all that we see should be valuated according to their place in the existential picture; the pictures of the screen serve the world-view’s development; the picture on this and the other side of the screen are tested in the environment of existential phenomena.
