The human race has a constant need to evolve, progress, invent and explore. This has led not only to exploring outer space, and the depths of our own oceans, but also in the ongoing creation of new forms of media and new ways to access/enjoy that media. We've gone from building sized computers, to phones that possess more computing power and fit in the palm of our hand, and this will only continue. With possible new media forms such as holographic technology or AR (Augmented Reality), just to name a few, on the horizon, we can see how our boundaries will continue to be pushed and explored.
To study new media, as we have in this class, we must immerse ourselves in the field and the media that it contains, and to attempt to throw away our preconceptions and start anew, as with many of these new forms of media, we cannot justly compare them to previous 'established' forms, for they may not comparable in the least. It's an area I think is very important to study, hence being in this class, and I hope more classes in this field are offered to students in the future.
