Through social media, global news and the arts we are in constant contact with many different people, cultures and ideas. This course will deepen your understanding of traditional and digital media and communication, exploring ways in which people and societies engage with technologies, including contemporary cultural phenomena such as social media, streaming cultures and digital fandom.
