What does it mean to designers?
“Analog and digital media, personal and mass communication, messy everyday culture and rigorous formal construction - future designers will need to work with all these elements, not as contradictions, but as fields of productive tension.”
Florian Cramer via Pop-up city : the city as multimedia interface
“The characterics of contemporary media and information systems, from mobile phones to blogs, YouTube and social networks, is that they blur the lines between private and public, personal and mass communication.
“What does it mean for audiovisual designers that YouTube has replaced MTV as the leading pop cultural audiovisual medium?”
