Evolution of Media: Analog to Digital

The document discusses the history of media from analog to digital forms. It describes how inventions like the printing press, telegraph with Morse code, telephone, and radio revolutionized one-to-one and one-to-many communication methods. The internet originally provided one-way information but evolved to allow feedback and provide visual, audio, and readily available information beyond voice alone, unlike radio. Analog media refers to printed, recorded, or filmed content in original form, while digital media involves digitized content that can be transmitted over computer networks and the internet.

History of Media

Analog to Digital Media

The computer with printing which when compared the typewriter and
the printing press both require you to type each individual book,
whereas the computer and printer, type it once and with the click of
one button you can have as many copies as you desire.
Morse code worked hand in hand with the telegraph by transmitting
electrical signals between stations and was widely used because of its
capability to transmit information. The telephone was another
revolutionary invention that allowed one to one communication between
two parties, at a faster rate than letters or the telegraph with mores code
and allowed direct voice communication over great distances in a manner
of seconds.
The radio, one of the most revolutionary forms of communication, a one to many systems that allows
thousands of people to access a one-way medium of vocal information. The internet originally was a one-way
medium of information but through its evolution allows to give feedback and isn’t only giving information
through voice communication alone, it gives visual and audio and unlike the radio information on the internet
is readily available.
