How we got here
Primary Orality(elders, personal,
interruptible, timely)
Primary Literacy(parchment/stone,
external, uninterruptible,
timeless)
Secondary Orality(mix of PO as PL) ?
Walter J. Ong’s idea of Orality & Literacy

Walter J. Ong’s original thesis on orality and literacya simple model that captures the essence of how orality differs from literacydoes not see one as better than the otherintroduced secondary orality to reconcile the cultural shift to recorded and disembodied projections of oral behaviours (radio/tv transmission, aural recording, video/film recordings)
