DD#11, HW#3: What's new, new media? - 2 views

  • Remediation is the incorporation or representation of one medium in another medium. Generally speaking, remediation is the act of providing a remedy.
  • According to their book Remediation: Understanding New Media by J. David Bolter and Richard A. Grusin, remediation is a defining characteristic of new digital media because digital media is contstantly remediating its predecessors (television, radio, print journalism and other forms of old media).
  • Although our culture wants to multiply its media it also wants to erase all traces of mediation. For example, a typical webiste may be hypermediated, offering photographs and streaming video. These media mediate between the viewer and the meaning of the photographs and video. The viewer does not want mediation, an intervening agency, but instead the wants immediacy, a way to get beyond mediation.[2]

  • Remediation and RealityEdit Because media intervenes, or mediates between viewers and what is represented, meaning is not immediate. In order to receive the meaning immediately, the viewer can ignore the presence of the medium and the act of mediation or by diminishing the medium's represntational function.
  • Redmediation as ReformEdit When a new medium is introduced, users expect that it will improve upon the flaws of the preceding medium and will deliver meaning more immediately. By improving upon a predecessor, new media justifies itself. The rhetoric of remediation favors immediacy and transparency, even though as the medium matures it offers new opportunities for hypermediacy.[4].

    This article starts off by providing the general meaning of remediation, "the act of proving a remedy". Rememdiation of the new media is refered to constantly remediating the old media like television, radio. A form of remediation is a film basked on a book. This article discusses the process of remediation by continously commenting on, reporducing, and replacing each other.

    A good site that explains remediation

    This was the best website I found this time because after reading the article I was still confused and had a headache from reading it sideways. This really helps you understand the article and the meaning of all the terms.

    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.

    This organization is striving to provide the public with a better understanding of the internet and it's new media communication. The layout is pretty easy to read with posts listed on the main page that links to articles relating to some issue of new media. Just reading the headlines you can tell the different types of new media present today.

D#8 HW#3 Variability - 0 views

  •  
    I think this page does a good job of describing what Manovich meant by variability in new media. The last statement, "Consequently, new media position the audience as users; able to manipulate and customize the media's experience for themselves to a greater degree than any previous form." is an ideal way to describe this phenomenon. The user of new media plays a huge part in how the media being viewed plays out over time. Interactivity is the cornerstone of this variability principle and I can see it being extended in the future to accomadate our (the users) needs and wants in ever more changing ways.
