| Macromedia and Micro-media |
| by Lev Manovich |
| Web users and producers, especially in the commercial sector, have focused much attention on 'broadband' media, a term widely used to describe the ability to access 'television quality' video over the Internet. But what will happen when this goal is met and the current TV look is recreated on the Web? What becomes the next frontier in the evolution of media?

| Remix and Remixability |
| by Lev Manovich |
The dramatic increase in quantity of information greatly speeded up by
Internet has been accompanied by another fundamental development.
Imagine water running down a mountain. If the quantity of water keeps
continuously increasing, it will find numerous new paths and these
paths will keep getting wider. Something similar is happening as the
amount of information keeps growing - except these paths are also all
connected to each other and they go in all directions; up, down,
sideways. Here are some of these new paths which facilitate movement of
information between people, listed in no particular order: SMS, forward
and redirect function in email clients, mailing lists, Web links, RSS,
blogs, social bookmarking, tagging, publishing (as in publishing
one's playlist on a web site), peer-to-peer networks, Web services,
Firewire, Bluetooth.
