Lecture 6

This weeks topic was on Consuption and Production. Consumption can be defined in two different ways, small screen and big screen. Consumption using the small screen involves media players which can be either shared or privately consumed or personal media players and mobile phones which are both generally private. Big screen consumption consists of the personal computer, cinema and television. Through these mediums we consume.
Also the point was raised that we as consumers are ever becoming the producers, which I found interesting, as it makes you wonder- will consumers produce so much that they will render professional producers useless? I’m not even sure if that makes sense.
