Creativity and New Media

One of the biggest ways I display creativity using new media is through Instagram. Instagram is a great platform that allows users to share photos and videos with their family and friends. I like using it to share important moments or people in my life in a fun way. I show my creativity through the different venues I take a picture at, the different people I feature in my pictures, and even using the different filters that Instagram provides. Below is a picture of my Instagram page, with a small preview to some recent photos I have posted.

    Hey Anthony- I agree, I think Instagram is a great way to express creativity! There are even some people who use it as a portfolio to post really nice photos they took, which I think is pretty cool. Some small clothing lines even use Instagram as a platform to promote their merchandise. Instagram is so versatile!

Next New

I think the next type of new media will be centered around eyeglasses. I think Virtual and Augmented Reality will be developed to the point that there are able to be implemented in "Smart" eyeglasses. These glasses will be able to project an augmented reality onto what you see to project things like maps and Search. Media platforms like Facebook and Snapchat will be built into it so when you turn on Facebook through your glasses, your friends are able to see what you see. I am not sure how popular it would be but I feel like that would catch on in the beginning in a world where people are trying to share more and more of their lives on social media. It can serve as a way to capture images and videos without having your phone out trying to capture everything on the fly.

How New Media is Influencing the Growth of Basketball

My research topic for the term paper is about how new media has impacted and is currently impacting basketball,  specifically the NBA.  I plan to look into the different new media outlets and see how it is being used to promote the game of basketball. I am also interested in seeing how the NBA is using new media to promote their brand and how "unknown" players are using these outlets to gain a following. There are many media companies that use these new media outlets to further the game of basketball. I hope to be in contact with someone working in the space at a company like ESPN or BleacherReport so I can get some insight on their role and how new media has affected their coverage of basketball.

Wiki so far

My idea for the wiki is to add something related to banking and mobile payments. I have stumbled across the amazing technology called Level Up, that is quickly being implemented in fast casual restaurants throughout the city. I have been reading up on it as well as speaking to the customers who use it and the restaurant managers who implement it at their stores, just to get more insight into the technology. I think the QR code technology is fascinating and I can't wait to expand further on it for the wiki!
