This stuff is really hard for me to understand. This is a definition to help if others are struggling.

This website gives an explanation about remediation and new media.  It also gives an explanation of how remediation is defined by predecessors like the television, radio and or old media like journals.  Media can interact with other kind of media by reproducing and replacing and making other changes.

I like how this article explains what remediation is and new media. This article talks about the double logic of remediation which are the process of remediation, remediation and reality, redmediation as reform.

This is my favorite of the websites that supplement my understanding of remediation because it does a great job of explaining the subject. It gives great examples of movies and events that involved remediation that I would know and this helped me understand it more. 

This article analyzing Bolter, Grusin book has fianlly helped me "get it." For some reason this was hard for me to wrap my mind around, but the way it is re-stated here is better for me.

This is a writing from Jay David Bolter and Richard Grusin that defines remediation, hypermediacy and immediacy. It has very good descriptions written in a way we can relate to by bringing in examples that are familiar to us like the movie Jurassic Park and the Pathfinder landing on Mars.

This website is very in-depth. It gives several examples of what remediation is and also goes into hyperimmediacy. It talks about transparent immediacy as well. It lets the reader know exactly what is ongoing in the media.

I found this article to give an interesting insight to remediation through a different format. The author focuses on how social medias have become a center for marketing. This leads the author to talk about how transparent everything is becoming due to the immediate response from a "tweet" or "status update". Through purchasing anything, the online experience has remediated the face to face experience. Customers now leave their comments on a certain product, and others use this information to persuade their purchase. From this we are now able to even share our purchases through social medias. The real store has been remediated into an online experience and allows for social connection, without the physical connection.

This article discusses some of the main factors in "Introduction: The Double Logic of Remediation". Remediation, immediacy, hypermediacy and mediation. It gives an overall review and glossary terminology for these topics discussed.

An insightful/helpful review of the Remediation book

DD11 HW 3 I like this presentation even though there is no audio because by thinking about each slide I am able to see more clearly what is meant by remediation. Linking it throughout history helps me to understand the evolution

Interesting article on remediation. It provides with the basic definition of the term and it also goes on explaining on how to work on something and not around it.

This is actually kind of a summary of the concepts of the Remediation book. This is helpful because you can get a quick grasp of what the book is talking about in a few short paragraphs summarizing the ideas.

This link is to an analysis of Bolter, Jay David, and Richard Grusin. Remediation: Understanding New Media. The MIT Press, 2000. By Time Barrow. It is interesting how the blogger touches on the principles of Transparent Immediacy and Hypermedia. He discusses how the online video conversation (OVC), acts like earlier media in that it makes its presence known to the user by hyper-mediation. Though this type of video does include a face to face view of a recorded person, it separates itself from video conferencing and Skype by allowing the user to pause and ponder responses, respond at request, and post re-recorded responses live. Technologies like this have a huge potential in distance learning with online classes. Imagine your instructors recording their lectures with every view having a front seat in the class. Combine this with the ability to pause the lecture to reflect on information and develop scenarios for different problems that are presented. All while having the ability to ask any question about info covered and re watching any portion of video until clearly understood.

This websites explains what each of the items means and what roles they play in new media. it also goes on to talk about where these items come into play in everyday things that we use like skype and so on. 

This power point seems to fit perfectly with the reading. It touches on the same topics covered in "remediation" but in the form of a power point.

Review of the book "Remediation" Key concepts. Good read helped with the understanding of the chapters of the book.

The Slideshare provides a summarization of the remediation of technology.

This page talks directly about the double logic of remediation and correlates closely with a lot of the concepts and theory talked about in the reading. It mentions immediacy which is aimed at diminishing users awareness of the media and hypermediacy which is aimed at enhancing that same awareness. It gives some great examples of the double logic of remediation and really helped me better understand what it means. This was my favorite of the different pages that I explored.

Interesting article about the book by Jay David Bolter and Richard Grusin

This gives a great description as to what this topic is dealing with

Transparent immediacy is "new media" that thinks of itself as interfaceless whiles hypermediacy is opaque and juxtaposed and come back into repeated contact with interface. Both get beyond representation and into the real.
