Summary/Abstract: The phenomenon of image at our region has a common denominator which becomes the only common philosophy that unites, and then it becomes a new ontology and phenomenology and gnoseology. When we expected that some media breakup happened forever, along with the political breakup followed by the tragedies of those regions, the media are emerging as the new saviours of stray souls searching for themselves in a large joint media projects of new media spectacles suspicious quality, but with a common denominator - profit, unite this media region, poorly for the time being, but profitable. The dialectics of inspiration and talent refracted through the prism of profit begins to be hopeful in the media that after “Farm”, “Brothers”, “Couples” may sometimes unite media space and evaluate in a quality media space. Nowadays, TV as a new castle of virtual worlds, becomes a meeting place for people who do not know each other, but who are assigned to live together, they curse, eat and live on the level of the original human community, promiscuous, without water, light and without culture and spirituality, the existence of people and the struggle for survival! An artificial paradise in which they sing, laugh, have sex without ethics or aesthetics - it is offered as a starting point, the only possible common happy life in which you can meet all those who have visited and entertained all the warring armies in the Balkans, now they just - they - those who are giving us new starting points or new phenomena houses and lost paradises! Bosnian, and probably Bosniak, should be happy, at least for the duration of ZMBT (You Could Be a Star)! Today’s man is Narcis seeking the beauty of his reflected image, checking all programs available at the network and he becomes a hermit with selected media, requesting to forget the world and reality, and the world and the environment is such that it is the best as by Bashlarov - no more exist! New media do not create new societies. They only offer to old media new functions in use of senses and changes the structure of society, that relying on the low educational level and high emotional threshold, create the new media architecture. Profit of individuals is just the price of our lost spirituality. Transformation of media with new hope, however it is Sisyphean happiness that Kafkaesque working, fishing in a bathtub, even when we know exactly that we will fish nothing!!! The game is in the effort, not in a lasting.
