New media (artistic environment)   (French Equivalent: Nouveaux médias)

DefinitionNew media are the means by which art, science, politics, economics, and other forms of culture are reinvented and manipulated as information. In contrast to broadcast media, new media such as the Web, e-mail, text messaging, and peer-to-peer networks encourage many-to-many communication and a "do it yourself" approach to innovation.
