Namen raziskave je spoznati rabo medija - Walkmana, v zgodovinski perspektivi in njegov pomen v vsakdanjem življenju v preteklosti. Izhajamo iz teoretskih izhodišč medijskih in kulturnih študij. Danes "mrtvi" medij je v 1980-ih in 1990-ih letih prejšnjega stoletja živel svoja zlata leta, zato je bil cilj rekonstruirati njegov pomen, vlogo in rabe v družbi v preteklosti. Kulturna zgodovina že pozabljenega medija nam tako razkriva nekatere rabe medijev, ki so bile prisotne že v preteklosti in so se danes z digitalnimi mobilnimi mediji močno razširile.

The purpose of the study was to get to know the use of the media - Walkman, from a historical perspective, and its importance in everyday life in the past, stemming from theoretical starting point of media and cultural studies. Today’s "dead" medium, lived its golden years in the 1980s and 1990s. The aim was to reconstruct its meaning, role and uses in society in the past. The cultural history of the forgotten medium thus reveals some uses of the media that have been present in the past and have become widespread with digital mobile media today.
