| Description | The paper deals with new media studies and focuses on their historical development and their relationship to media studies. New media studies are conceived as a interdisciplinary metafield of shared interest where social sciences and humanities meet in their need to research and theorize new ICT based on digital coding of contents as social and cultural phenomena. Since media studies play role of one of several disciplines colonizing the thematic field of new media, the paper at the first place aims to identify set of new media issues being solved specifically by this discipline. Consequently, the paper reconstructs history of new media studies since 1960s until 2000s, with an emphasis on key influences that shaped the metafield of new media studies and formed their theoretical and empirical body. |
