I hate to admit it, but I had never heard of this comedian, Louis CK. This YouTube clip entitled “Everything’s Amazing, Nobody’s Happy” from Late Night with Conan O’Brien is hilarious. After you finishing laughing, think about the implications of his jokes: the psychological expectations that are becoming standard about the speed of interactions.

What is Media Psychology?

Media psychology is the study of how people interact with, produce and are impacted by technology and media--from traditional mass media to emerging media like the social networks of Facebook and Twitter.

Using a systems perspective, I draw on cognitive, narrative, and positive psychologies to make sense out of how technology and media influence our psychology and behavior. I research, assess and promote positive media use and applications in order to teach individuals and organizations on how to be effective communicators and innovators.
