Multimedia

Multimedia comes from the two words “multi” and “media” which means “many” and “materials” respectively. Multimedia is the age of the youth of today, it is because of the combination of the different media. Media can create a new culture and shape the landscape of our minds. It is also the strongest man-made force that can influence people, we can say strongest because men themselves have been influence by this force. And multimedia is composed of the different media of the past such as the folk media, the visual or printed media, and the broadcast or electronic media.
Folk media is the oldest media because it is the media used by our ancestor some of this are the folk dances, and drums.
Visual or printed media is those materials that help people express their feelings through writings.
And the last one is the broadcast or the printed media, materials or instruments that uses electricity.
