 A new form of new media would be the ability to watch 4k movies at home. With this, you will be able to experience the movement from the movie. The movie will also be able to be seen from the virtual reality headset to be able to experience the movie as a whole. I believe this will be created eventually in the future being that it already exists in movie theaters. Now with the COVID-19 pandemic, many technologies have been advanced enough to facilitate life at home.

    Hi Rachel,
    This is an interesting point you're making when talking about facilitate life at home. The current situation the world is experiencing will change the way we used to life and fosters home activities. Being able to watch 4K movies at home is definitely a comfortable way to spend the pandemic at home !

    Hi Rachel,
    I entirely agree with you that technologies that can provide the ability to watch 4k movies at home will become more accessible to all consumers. Technologies like Virtual Reality will also integrate with the 4K platform to give a better user experience. I just wonder if we would still go outside to watch movies or travel since we can have all the experience right at our homes.

    Hi Rachel,

    I think your idea about the next new media being the implementation of 4k movies and virtual reality to be really interesting and similar to something I wrote. While I emphasized using virtual reality for work/social purposes I can also see the benefit of them in entertainment. Having such high quality and integrated content could be great for feeling immersed in your favorite shows and movies.

    Hey Rachel,

    Your idea is definitely a work in progress. Great thinking... especially since people barely want to go out due to risking getting CoVID. Although I feel like at first it will be costly and will put a lot of movie theaters at risk of being out business but sadly this is what life is now.

Advice

  If I was hired by Baruch College to improve the college with the use of new media I would do various things. One of them would be to provide a platform in which students can have discussions despite what they are majoring in. As a student at Baruch, it is rare that you interact with others due to it being a commuter school. It is the same case when you are in different schools, as I never interact with students from Weissman as a Zicklin student, unless I take a liberal arts elective. Another suggestion would be to use social media to speak on the achievements of Baruch alumni. Creating a page in which alumni can share their experiences and how Baruch has helped them will aid undergraduates and graduates after graduating. It is often the case where undergraduates like me are first-generation graduates and we have no guidance on what to do after graduation. Being able to interact with Baruch alumni will help Baruch students get a perspective and make it their own. Last but not lea...

Blog v Wiki

When speaking on the topic of blogs v. wiki, I believe there are differences as well as similarities. Blogs are written from a person’s perspective. A blog usually consists of a person’s own views and opinions. The blogger can also post as many times as they prefer. On the other hand, wikipedias are more fact-based, and do not leave much room for a person’s opinion. Wiki is more of a group collaboration, where everyone can input information they find. Information posted on wiki has to be backed up by a source, otherwise it can be seen as inaccurate.   However, when comparing both, people can have a discussion on both blogs and wiki. There is an exchange of views, where one can provide insight on each other’s work. There is an importance of convergence in today’s networked world because sharing ideas leads to more knowledge. For instance, when people comment on my blog posts, it provides me with more insight. Commenting is one of the ways where people can come together and help each...
