During the middle ages, in some medieval libraries, a book was chained to a table to ensure its accessibility to the reader and its safety from thieves. 88 Johann Gutenberg was the inventor of a movable-type printing press, based on a Rhenish wine press and using ink that clung to the metal type and produced color fonts. Printing Press a mechanical device for applying pressure to an inked surface resting upon a print medium (such as paper or cloth). 99 Those who have read a new book can come together and discuss its contents. It takes time for the discussion points to reach the author unless the discussants sent their reviews or feedbacks to the author. The printing press also ushered in pamphlets and newspapers that were readily accepted by people because they were informed and updated on news and ideas around them. 10 10 MEDIA FORMS YEAR Periodicals Magazine and scholarly journals 1830- wireless communication signals 1895- the lumiere brothers invents a portable motion- picture, film processing unit and projector called Cinematographe that presented a projected motion picture to an audience of more than one person RADIO, TELEVISION, MOVIES 1897- first rotating cameras used for film-making 1901- the first audio receiver, successfully received a radio transmission 1907- Color photography invented Auguste and Louis Lumiere 11 MEDIA FORMS YEAR 1910- Thomas Edison demonstrated the first talking motion picture 1912- Motorized movie cameras inventor replaces hand-cranked cameras 1916- Invention of radio tuners that receives different RADIO, TELEVISION, MOVIES broadcast from stations. 1921- Artificial life begins- the First robot is built. 1927- Radio becomes a national medium in U.S 1927- Philo Taylor Farmsworth invents a complete electronic TV system 12 is a period of history that encompasses the changes in economic and social organization that began around 1760 in Great Britain. 13 13 Inventions built on top of other inventions in the Industrial age from the Leyden jar in 1745 until Farmsworth’s electronic TV system in 1972. Radio and television radically changed the ways of communicating information and knowledge. Huge changes in agricultural methods made the Industrial Revolution possible. This agricultural revolution started with changes in farming in the Netherlands, later developed by the British. 14 14 Invented by Louis Lumière and Antoine Lumière are designed to record a succession of images on a reel of film that is repositioned after each exposure. 15 15 The Autochrome Lumière is an early The sterling camera and film color photography process patented in company made the first motorized 1903 by the Lumière brothers in France movie camera in 1912. and first marketed in 1907.

At first, one only had to listen to the radio or change stations to one’s liking. It is also the same with television: one sits and watches what is on screen or switches channels to see what is going on in other places. 21 21 EVOLUTION OF T R A D I T I O N A L M E D I A TO NEW MEDIA 1998 until CD-ROMS the mid- 2000s Electronic Idea started books and in the 1930s NEW MEDIA journals Fourth generation CD-i until 1998 New The internet (Information) Age 22 Use a “many-to-many” mode of communicating its contents. In the wake of digitization brought about by many devices with computing capacity, people became more interactive. Mobile phones in the New (Information) Age have been made so smart that people can collect data about almost anything, give their input, and disseminate the information just as fast as they gather it. 23 23 The word viral has come to mean circulating rapidly on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and other social media apps in the internet with its millions of netizens. The “many-to-many” communication paradigm has become a “peer-to- peer” model due to the sharing of content, collaboration of creative minds, and interaction amongst people media in newspaper 24 24 25 Is also known as Information Richness Theory Is a framework used to describe a communication medium’s ability to reproduce the information sent over it. In a sentence MRT means “a medium fits with a task”. New media serve the task of living in a democratic society very well. 26 26 was developed by Richard L. Daft and Robert H. Lengel The ability of information created on the medium to reduce equivocality and is based on four criteria Speed of Interaction Cue Multiplicity Language Variety Personal Focus 27 27 Synchronicity describes the ability of the medium to create the sense that all participants are concurrently engaged in the communication event. The theories on media richness and media synchronicity evolved out of what Kock (2005) calls “Our biological communication apparatus”. 28 28 We humans still cope with increased mental effort to achieve clarity in communication with the use of continuously improved communication technology tools. 29 29
