"New Media" response

These articles were very engaging to me based more on the thought produced. Two seemed more historical, which were interesting and engaging at the same time, while the third (soft cinema) made me think of how a system resembling theirs could aide the presentation of my ideas. When looking to question my media form, the medium is fairly evident as are the ideas, but the presentation of the two have been my biggest thinking point. I'm not really interested in "narrative" or any statements on it currently, but the strength in presentation might lend its self to the explorations I'm interested in. The two articles from the same source helped me even think de constructively about not only video, but the platform of arrival of the video and how those could be commented on. I'm not quite sure if networking lends its self to my concept currently, but it still poses interesting avenues of were either the work or me personally could exist and how that existence could be controlled. This makes me question weather or not my views are "new media" or what they fall under. The articles really make me question the validity of my deconstruction of the video media, but at the same time make me want to keep going to make my views on the medium seen and hopefully cause though. I guess overall this first push of real in depth influence has somewhat made me starstruck. The technology involved is intimidating and I'm not sure what or how to integrate into anything. These articles have opened the door and now it's my job to navigate these new ideas and bring forth my ideas out of them.
