Medium Is The Message

I’ve had a tough week trying to figure out this concept. Hence why it is 8pm on a Sunday night and I am now only doing this.

The introduction to technology has changed the way society not only consumes information but also shares it. In the past society has gone from meeting up for lunch to see how our friends are doing, to simply sending ‘hru?’ on Facebook Messenger. Technology allows for us to know things instantly and conveniently, allowing you the audience to be in control. The ‘medium’ is constantly always happening and until Monday I had not really considered this. Everyday the choices we make can change the medium. eg. clothing. The world is an audience so what you put out there is available for everyone to see and view.  Even simply by posting this blog I am making an extension of myself – a medium. WOO!

This concept still confuses me but I will eventually figure it out!!
