Emerging Digital Media Ecologies

This book, Emerging Digital Media Ecologies: The Concept of Medialogy, examines the profound and evolving relationships between humans, technology, and the environment through the interdisciplinary lens of "medialogy." It investigates the cultural, ethical, and societal implications of emerging digital technologies, including artificial intelligence, virtual and augmented reality, and the internet of things. The author explores how these technologies are transforming communication, creative practices, identity, and our understanding of reality, considering historical context through media archaeology and future possibilities. Furthermore, the text critically analyzes topics such as online extremism, digital literacy, and the role of Indigenous media within the evolving digital landscape, advocating for ethical and sustainable engagement with technology.
