商品描述

This book frames "theories" as tools for understanding and applying real-world phenomena, bridging classic scholarship with the unprecedented challenges and opportunities posed by machine intelligence, digital platforms, and shifting cultural dynamics. Structured in four sections--Foundational Media Theories, Interaction and Impact Theories, Critical Media Perspective Theories, and Advanced and Future-Facing Theories--the textbook progresses from essential theories like Marshall McLuhan's and Neil Postman's Media Ecology Theory to cutting-edge concepts like Ambient Media and Attention Economy Theories. With chapters addressing topics such as algorithmic influence, media ecology, participatory media, and posthuman digital embodiment, the book offers a holistic view of media's past, present, and evolving futures. The 12 future-focused media theories presented include the introduction of Quantum Media Theory and Gestalt Media Theory as an integrated, cross-disciplinary, approach to understanding media theory from a wholistic "whole is more than the sum of its parts" perspective.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書將「理論」視為理解和應用現實世界現象的工具,橋接經典學術與機器智慧、數位平台及文化動態變遷所帶來的前所未有的挑戰與機會。書籍分為四個部分——基礎媒體理論、互動與影響理論、批判媒體視角理論,以及進階與未來導向理論——教材從馬歇爾·麥克盧漢(Marshall McLuhan)和尼爾·波斯特曼(Neil Postman)的媒體生態理論等基本理論,逐步深入到如環境媒體(Ambient Media)和注意力經濟(Attention Economy)理論等前沿概念。書中涵蓋的章節探討了算法影響、媒體生態、參與式媒體及後人類數位具身等主題,提供了媒體過去、現在及不斷演變的未來的整體觀。書中提出的12個未來導向的媒體理論包括量子媒體理論(Quantum Media Theory)和格式塔媒體理論(Gestalt Media Theory)的介紹,這些理論作為一種整合的跨學科方法,從「整體大於部分之和」的視角來理解媒體理論。
