A project that demonstrates media convergence -- don’t worry if you don’t know how to implement certain technologies. Use each other as resources. As a requirement, everyone should offer some sort of help to at least one other person in class (could be a bit of code or designing a logo or helping with video).write your project spec for next week.
"Since the invention of the printing press, mass media have been created for the masses, not by them."I feel like that sums it up for me because that's really the "power" (if you want to call it that) of all these "new" media formats. It allows all lots of different people to publish lots of different content to reach lots of different audiences. But it still leaves, for me, one question because it's one of those "where do you focus" scenarios (as in the cart or the horse, the chicken or the egg); Is something, like a blog, or content that is on the web and your phone convergent because it's "viewable" in many locations, and on many devices or is it convergent because it's many ideas and or individuals coming together regardless of the medium? Or, I guess, is it convergent because of both?
