"Media Evolution"
Media is mass communication, a connection all over the world that informs,entertains and influences people. Over the years , the media we all know and use has constantly been changing. Many types of media that older generations may have used have already become redundant. Newspapers have already allowing their audience to access this medium online; in the future they will be replaced by hand held electronic devices called an e-paper. The e-paper is much like a kindle,allowing the user to purchase the newpaper online and it appears on the screen. The electronic device is in instantaneous giving the user the choice of when and where they will read the newspaper. Music has changed a considerable about over the years, once a stationary record player; it has now become evolved into something anyone can carry around in their pocket,music cm be downloaded onto phones and personal players such as iPods and mP3 players. You can also find musics on online forums such as Youtuve ,iPods and mP3 players also continue to improve as the years go by.Television and radio are also making their mark in the evolution of media: a television that once a black and white is now colored. Most television today are also made with Liquid Crystal Display screen or also known as LCD screen. The early history of radio is the history of technology that produce the use of radio instruments that use radio waves. Within the timeline of radio, many people contributed theory and inventions in what became radio. Radio development began as "wireless telegraphy". Later radio history increasingly involves matter of broadcasting. The internet has revolutionized the computer and communications world like nothing before. The internet today is a widespread information insfrastructure. It's history is complex and involves many aspects ---- technological,organizational, and communuty. And it's influence reaches not only to the technical fields of computer communications but throughout society as we move toward increasing use of online tools to accomplish electronic commerce,information acquisition and community operations. Median are not the consequences or technical invetioms , but derive from a two stage process of inventing and ' social institutionizing'. The technical invention just improves on the old media. In the next phase of innovation,new media become institutionalized: now, new media such as the periodical press, motion pictures and broadcasting emerge. A process of 'social institutionalizing' changes the invented media fundamentally. Society 'institutionalizes' inventions by discovering new possibilities of communication; it adopts and formats new media. |
