Remediation & ONeill Website
One of the most important things I gained from the readings in the book was to question how media is always remediating other media. This has great potential impact on my decisions on the website. For example, what are the kinds of content we'd like to see on the site? This content could be remediating content from other media. Photographs which used to be such an automatic and unquestionably authentic practice will be manipulated by us to be present the O'Neill Theatre in the best light. We will be mediating the photos to make sure they work in an online format.Also, will we want to provide any video? Will the video work like what we are used to on TV? The forms will be interactive versions of the paper version. We are remediating the paper versions of forms to make them better, we are taking what is existing and reformating it for this environment.
And lastly in regards to remediation, I think about how we are going to be taking all these forms of revised media from the past and bringing it together on the site as hypermediacy. I take what I have learned from the readings to question how I am bringing this to the audience and whether I am trying to improve upon old media with this online environment.
