Media ecology looks into the matter of how media of communication affects human perception, understanding, feeling, and value, as well as how our interaction with media facilitates or impedes our chances of survival. The word ecology implies the study of environments: their structure, content, and impact on people.
From this point of view: since media have such an impact on ever aspect of our lives, we seek an understanding of how these media affect our lives.
In Google Docs create a drawing, document, or presentation brainstorming ideas for a presentation on how the media extend our bodies. You can be as visual and creative as you like. Possible ideas:
- create a poster describing how media extend our bodies
- make a public service announcement to make people aware of how the media change their environments
- create a visual representation of how a certain technology extends our physical body (example: a car as an extension of our legs...)
For now, focus on brainstorming ideas.
Go to docs.google.com and get to it.
