Interactive media

Interactive media - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:

"Interactive media refers to media of communication that allow for active participation by the recipient, hence interactivity. Traditional information theory would describe interactive media as those media that establish two-way communication. In media theory, interactive media are discussed along their cultural implications. The field of Human Computer Interaction deals with aspects of interactivity and design of in digital media. Other areas that deal with interactive media are new media art, interactive advertising and video game production.

While some traditional (non-digital) mass media would qualify for interactive media the term is usually only applied to digital media. The significant increase in possibilities for interactivity (especially over vast distances) brought by the internet boosted the availability of digital interactive media. Still, e.g. language in face-to-face communication would formally belong to the interactive media.

Interactive media are often designed by information designers. As all media they rely on communication. In the case of e.g. computer games this is visual, acoustic, and haptic communication between the user (player) and the game.

TRON Clock V2 « The Algorithmist

TRON Clock V2 « The Algorithmist : "I wanted to contrast different implementations of the same concept in the TRON clock, so welcome to V2. My intent in the first version was to always display an analog-style clock with a circular theme and varying background quadrant graphics for the minutes. The former was considered part of the component and the latter was the skin. That’s a pretty narrow view of a skin. What if someone wanted to replace the circular theme with something triangular or square or even a digital display - Sent using Google Toolbar"
