DIGITAL MEDIA ARTS

Information that is broadcast to us through a screen or other device is referred to as "digital media," a broad term. Software, digital images, digital video, video games, web pages, mp3s, podcasts, streaming services, electronic documents, and e-books are some examples of digital media.

Digital media is all around us. It has become the main method for many people to receive, send, and produce content. Members of Generation Z, also known as the zoomers, or what sociologists refer to as Generation Z, are particularly affected by this. The zoomers, who were born between 1997 and 2012, were the first generation to have early access to the internet and portable digital technology. They are also referred to as "digital natives" because of this.

Zoomers prefer using voice control and images for communication over typing and texting. They frequently make new friends on social media and other platforms, many of whom they never meet in "real life." And, for better or worse, their primary source of information and entertainment is their smartphone. According to a 2015 Microsoft study, 77% of people between the ages of 18 and 25 pick up their phones when they have nothing else on their minds. Only 10% of people 65 and older shared this opinion.
