Media Differences

[Media Differences]

Each medium has different strengths and weaknesses. Each excels in different capabilities and different types of communication. These are intricately woven into the way we perceive through our senses. Think about our senses and how we use them. The common senses include: Sight, Hearing, Touch, Taste, and Smell. We sorely need to develop a better understanding of our senses, how they operate, how they relate to each other, and how to create for them. Diane Ackerman's book, A Natural History of the Senses, offers an inspiring discussion on our sensorial experiences. This is but a beginning toward a better understanding that we may then use to create more compelling experiences.
