Media Inventory

When we think of things that send us messages or have meaning to us, the list is endless. When we get up in the morning the first things we might receive messages from would be the alarm clock, our bodies and perhaps the cat telling you that it’s breakfast time. When we leave the house the car will tell you how it’s feeling in regards to fuel and coolant levels and we read traffic and street signs because they are there to help make our lives easier. People send messages to each other if not in direct speaking then via our phones, computers or the old school way with a note. All of these things can send messages to us but only a few can be considered as media (Unless you believe we live in the Matrix). The most common forms of media that I use would be mobile, computer, ipod and gaming consoles. My mother often says to me that I would die without these things in my life but in truth I could; I just wouldn’t want to because these little devices make life easier and more entertaining.
