Information and transformation of media
The first session presented a timeline of the transformations in the principal media tools used to disseminate information throughout history. The shift from printed to digital media, along with the requisite adaptations and changes it has entailed, represent a major historical turning point. That said, its importance is surprisingly overlooked. Perhaps this could be explained by the recency of the changes.

As such, the bearings that used to help us establish the credibility and validity of sources have been profoundly altered.
