Final Project Essay

Media (New Media)

New media is a broad term that emerged in the later part of the 20th century to encompass the amalgamation of traditional media such as film, images, music, spoken and written word, with the interactive power of computer and communications technology, computer-enabled consumer devices and most importantly the Internet. New media holds out a possibility of on-demand access to content any time, anywhere, on any digital device, as well as interactive user feedback, creative participation and community formation around the media content. What distinguishes New media from traditional media is not the digitizing of media content into bits, but the dynamic life of the "new media" content and its interactive relationship with the media consumer. This dynamic life, moves, breathes and flows with pulsing excitement in real time. Another important promise of New Media is the "democratization" of the creation, publishing, distribution and consumption of media content.

Most technologies described as "new media" are digital, often having characteristics of being manipulated, networkable, dense, compressible, interactive and impartial. Some examples may be the Internet, websites, computer multimedia, computer games, CD-ROMS, and DVDs. New media is not television programs, feature films, magazines, books, or paper-based publications - unless they contain technologies that enable digital interactivity, such as graphic tags containing web-links.

The definition for image is artifact, for example two-dimensional picture that has a similar experience to some subject. The definition of graphic is visual representation on some surface such as a wall, canvas,computer screen and paper. The definition of text is a combination of alphabets from A-Z in form of words or senteces. The definition of sound is traveling wave that is oscillation of pressure transmitted to a solid,liquid or gas composed of frequencies within the range of hearing and of a level sufficient strong to be heard. Meanwhile, the definition of animation is rapid display of a sequence of images of 2-D or 3-D artwork or model positions in order to create an illusion of movement. Other type of artwork that can be produce is new invention. This kind of artworks combines all the elements above to achieve uniqueness. New inventions are a change in the thought process for doing something or the useful application of new inventions or discoveries. It may refer to incremental emergent or radical and revolutionary changes in thinking products, processes or organizations.

Interactivity has become a term for number of new media use options evolving from the rapid dissemination of Internet access point, the digitalization of the media, and media convergence. In 1984, Rice defined the new media as communication technologies that enable or facilitate user-to-user interactivity and interactivity between user and information. Such as Internet replaces the "one-to-many" model of traditional mass communication with the possibility of a "many-to-many" web of communication. Any individual with the appropriate technology can now produce his or her online media and include images, text, and sound about whatever he or she chooses. So the new media with technology convergence shifts the model of mass communication, and radically shapes the ways we interact and communicate with one another. Vin Crosbie(2002) described three communications media in “What is new media?”. He saw Interpersonal media as “one to one”, Mass media as “one to many” and, finally New Media as Individuation Media or “many to many”.

When we think of interactivity and its meaning, we assume that it is only prominent in the conversational dynamics of individuals who are face-to-face. This restriction of opinion does not allow us to see its existence in mediated communication forums. Interactivity is present in some programming work, such as video games. It's also viable in the operation of traditional media. In the mid 1990s, filmmakers started using inexpensive digital cameras to create films. It was also the time when moving image technology had developed, which was able to be viewed on computer desktops in full motion. This development of new media technology was a new method for artists to share their work and interact with the big world. Other settings of interactivity include radio and television talk shows, letters to the editor, listener participation in such programs, and computer and technological programming. Interactive new media has become a true benefit to every one because people can express their artwork in more than one way with the technology that we have today and there is no longer a limit to what we can do with our creativity.

Interactivity can be considered as a central concept in understanding new media, but different media forms possess different degree of interactivity, even some forms of digitized and converged media are not in fact interactive at all. Tony Feldman considers digital satellite television as an example of a new media technology that uses digital compression to dramatically increase the number of television channels that can be delivered, and which changes the nature of what can be offered through the service, but does not transform the experience of television from the user’s point of view, as it lacks a more fully interactive dimension. It remains the case that interactivity is not an inherent characteristic of all new media technologies, unlike digitization and convergence.

As conclusions, new media can brings a lot of advantages to the world in the future. A lot of things can be develop. Plus, with new media, it can make a lot of changes to the human life in simplify the way of completing things. It also will bring goods to humankind in the future.

WEEK 4

Convergent & Divergent thinking ...

-Convergent is where all the possibilities can be turn into solution .
-Divergent is where the possibilities that can be develop from the main subject .

-Mind map is the way of a person to improve , making clear , saving time , confident and new discoveries to make a new ideas or to get a new ideas . The layouts and the technique of creating the mind map that is important to make it more easier to approach .

This is a way of brainstorming can help in developing ideas . This is a good practice to make sure more point of view can be created or more point of idea can be created .

WEEK 3

For me what can i see is that Neville Brody is a creative man . He is a famous typeface designer that always creating a font that is in the flowing with the age or maybe we can say modern ways . He is a perfectionism guy that like to make a perfect art work . He is a good example or a creative person .

WEEK 3

In this week of class novelty , creativity & invention was explain to us

-a creative person is the one that create new ideas .
-through creative process , it is the way a creative person produce the ideas .
-innovation is when the ideas are turned into reality that is the way of creative person introduce it .
- novelty can be subjective & objective :
~subjective is the way of people give perception towards something that is new .
~objective is the development and always based on the idea that already created .

this is the steps or a conclusion what a creative people need to have in them in the way of them to create new and more creative and developing ideas .

WEEK 2

From today class i have learned creativity is a different thinking . Example from what i said is that people have different view from a problem , if u lined up 3 person with from different majoring and ask them the way of solution to a problem , they will come out with different answer or different solution and that solution is come from the creativity of the way of that person think . If a person have negative thinking and the answer will be negative . It all depends on the way of the person thinks .

There are formula to be creative that is when u combine ABILITY + ATTITUDE + PROCESS .
The ability is referred to the imaginative side
The attitude is referred to the way a person act towards
The process is referred to the improvement from it
add it all up and it will create CREATIVITY .

WEEK 1

In class today that was conduct by Mr.Yap , my mind is like being opened on the other side of thinking . First i thought it was like boring then i makes seen to me that every single person on earth can be creative or more creative just by adjusting the way of our thinking . For me it is like a small switch in my brain that trigger the creative mode of the brain (this is how image it) . The way of a person think is different from others . That makes some of us more creative then others . People that thinks out of the box is the creative people .

Just to show example just compare the way of Pablo Picasso think and the way of G.Bush think .
We can see the out come from this two people and it is totally different . One is a artist that create painting and the other one is a president that want to make his country richer .

Sorry if my example is not clear enough for this topic but that is the way of how i understand . Though it just an intro class but still it give me sort of stuff to think and help me in my studies .
