The Media Ecology. Map of concepts and mediascape.
Media ecology is how all of our media is linked together and one would not make sense without the other, these are the 8 types of media ecology:
- Money
- Institutions
- Audience
- Technology
- Creators
- Distribution
- Social Media
- Government
One of the points we tried to display from our Lego land was how a community can impact basic survival, we did this by showing a animal locked up but that animal was locked up for the reason of keeping peace. This is because if the animal was let out it would kill anything that was in its way or the animal would be killed. Locking it up would keep everyone safe and at peace.
Above is a collection of mind maps that show in detail how media ecology operates. When I make my magazine I now understand that i’ll have to consider distribution patterns, audiences and the law.
