NEW MEDIA OLD MEDIA AND REMEDIATION

In my research I have found that people define new media as digital media. It is define as a term that has been use scene the late 20th century, to define the electronic digital age of media; websites, chat rooms, interactive computer and communications technology. New media is the defines how people live and are influnced today. New media creates a way to define how the media was before them. The "old" media is seen as print, television, radio, ect.

The old media creates ways to view New media. Through remediation old media and new media collide. It creates a new form of new media. Its the rehashing of technology that make innovation possible.

The remediation of media is a reuse of old media seen is a new way. The remediation of technology leads to new way to see the evolution of technology. It is through this evolution that people evolve the standards of tech. The book on a kindle or the ipad can be seen as remediation of the printed word. Remediation is a stepping stone to create new media and new ways to think about media. “the ‘content’ of any medium is always another medium. The content of writing is speech, just as the written word is the content of print, and print is the content of the telegraph” {McLuhan, Understanding Media}. It is through these terms that new media is created. We look to the past to create new innovation thought. The remediation of media to create new media blurs the line between updated media and new media.
