(week 4)What are new media ?2

In the second lesson of "New media"..
What is the reason for importance of using word, "New" which is placed infront of "media".

We have learned about it through lots of examples such as computer games, arts with technic, and internet.

Those are very difficult meaning to me....

I think
As an intermedium,
"New media" can not only connect vitual to reality
but also represent modern society.
