My notes from Lecture 1

This lecture was more of an introduction to the course. Steven Stockwell touched on what the difference is between old and new communication technologies. When does a NCT become an OCT. There was a simple definition of communication as well as a more modern concept. The Terms intersubjectivity and intertextuality were discussed as well.

There was also a definition of technology mentioned as well. Names such as Marshall McLuhan and Stelarc were also introduced. Analogue and digital technologies were also a topic in this lecture. The last subject mentioned was convergence and how that relates to New Communication Technologies.

NB: these notes have been composed with the aid of the lecture notes on the Learning@Griffith site after following the links to THIS site.
