The document discusses the evolution of new media from a new medium to a new living space. It covers topics such as digitalization, cyberization, and socialization in new media. New media allows for the transformation of people, communities, companies and more into digital objects that can be copied and manipulated. It also enables the formation of a virtual cyber space and new social orders based on digital interactions and connections. Overall, the document examines how new media has evolved from a new communication medium to an entire virtual living space for socialization.

19. WHAT’S ‘NEW’ ABOUT NEW MEDIA?
• Do New Media create new meanings?
• Do they enable or disable social and cultural
change?
• How are we to disentangle the various
components of media and technology change
as they affect, or are presumed to affect,
organizaRons, the poliRcal process, global
commerce, everyday life?
• What is this space called cyber?
Silverstone R., What’s new about new media?, NM & Society Journal, Vol.1 No.1, Sage, 1999.

20. WHY NEW MEDIA IS ‘OLD’?
• Silverstone: 1999
– “The supposedly disRnct characterisRcs of new
media; digital convergence, many-to-many
communicaRon, interacRvity, globalisaRon,
virtuality, are arguably, with the possible excepRon
of the specifically technical, not new at all.”

21. WHY NEW MEDIA IS ‘OLD’?
• Meikle & Young: 2012
– “All media were new at once and to place an emphasis on
the ‘new’ can be misleading.(..) There are also very real
problems in deciding what is to count as ‘new’.”
• E-mail: 40+ years.
• WWW: 20 years
• iPod : 10 years
– “Are any of these sRll new? DVDs and MP3s once seemed
new, but then so did the telegraph and the telephone.”
– “SpoRfy, Foursquare and Augmented Reality will not be
the excepRons.”
The term CONVERGENT MEDIA is more appropriate
as well as NETWORKED DIGITAL MEDIA.

22. WHY NEW MEDIA IS ‘NEW’?
• Flew: 2008, 2014
– While quesRoning the “newness”, we need to focus not on the tools
as product or service, but on the processes as producRon, delivery or
consumpRon and their disrupRve effects on businesses, life-styles,
idenRRes, cultures, economies, poliRcs, global affairs, and social
interacRons.
– The disrupRve culture growing on the new medium and conRnuously
challenging the established systems to transform, strengthens the
raRonale for use of the term ‘new’.
• Manovich: 2002
– “I am not claiming that there is a single language of new media;
rather, I use it as an umbrella term to refer to a number of various
convenRons used by designers of new media objects to organize data
and structure user’s experience”

23. WHY NEW MEDIA IS ‘NEW’?
• Lister, Dovey, Giddings, Grant ve Kelley: 2009.

24. NEW MEDIA; NEW? OR ELSE?
• KEY FINDINGS1:
– We are in the beginning of the triple
convergence process and can expect more
radical & disrupRve influences on
individuals, society, economy, culture,
poliRcs and many more fields as the Digital
NaRve populaRon grows and starts to
dominate the world by strengthening their
experiences and competences on New
Media.

25. NEW MEDIA; NEW? OR ELSE?
• KEY FINDINGS2:
– As stated by Meinkle & Young, The
World Wide Web is already 27 years old
since Tim Berners-Lee acRvated the first
website in 1990 and this interval is
sufficient for many concepts to become
‘old’. But becoming old, is directly
related to the loss rate of its potenRal &
dynamics.

26. NEW MEDIA; NEW? OR ELSE?
• KEY FINDINGS3:
– World Wide Web, as an element of New
Media, is not a new concept but thanks to the
applicaRons such as the Social Media
Plavorms, Internet of Things and AR/VR
which was developed on it will sRll have
disrupRve influences on individuals, society,
economy, poliRcs, etc. despite it has been
almost 27 years.

27. NEW MEDIA; NEW? OR ELSE?
• CONCLUSIONS:
– For these reasons, the adjecRve new which used in
the context of “unclear, unknown” is more grasping
for the term New Media and it can be foreseen that
its dispruRve power will conRnue for a very long
while.
