MEASURING 'NEWNESS'
How new? How large change?
We need to establish from what previous states things have changed.

Three Possibilities
1) How can we know that new thing is made from?
2) Familiar in everyday use or consumption
3) Degrees of novelty

Old media in new times?
-New media -> digital TV or IP TV
-Old media -> immersive VR, online, interactive, multimedia


The idea of 'remediation'
Jay Bolter & Richard Grusin
New Media Formulation
1. The digital technologies 'refashion older media'.
2. These older media 'refashion themselves to answer to the challenges of new media'.

New Media
- are not born in a vacuum.
- would have no resources to draw upon if they were not in touch and negotiating with the older media.


Media had changed so natural that we could hardly recognize it .
And constantly changing world and technology.
also media too..
