Статья научная

Nowadays, access to various forms of information is often achieved using modern information technologies. The media is flooded with information, but it has never been harder to get the right information. In the competitive struggle, traditional media rely more and more on the possibilities that new technological solutions bring. Integrating the features of print, radio and television with the possibilities provided by modern technologies is a key factor in future business. In the conditions of intense competition on the media scene, the Internet is the basis for the survival of traditional media companies at the local and regional level. Social networks have changed the way of thinking of their audience and their users. Thanks to the development of technology, it is possible to exchange information and spread numerous contents very quickly through social networks. The work indicates that a lot of time is spent on social networks. The aim of this paper is to point out the integration of traditional media and social networks and their influence on consumer attitudes.

The substitution of reality: Madonna as a tool of mass media

The substitution of reality: Madonna as a tool of mass media

Nikola Govedarica, Stevan Lutovac, Lakatoš I. Ana

Статья научная

Using qualitative research methods, we will explicate how the internet and other modern technologies directly impact the reality presented. Through specific segments of this study, we will analyze the democratization of art, fashion, and image in contemporary society, focusing primarily on its real, current, and true-media publication through the phenomenon of Madonna. Employing methods of textual analysis and interpretation, we will examine the works of philosophers Jean Baudrillard, cultural theorist Paul Virilio, and Douglas Kellner. In doing so, we will explain the significance of media manipulation. The primary objective of this study is to depict media through postmodern theory, presenting them as leading factors in contemporary social processes. Postmodern theorists emphasize that the media system, which has dominated reality since the early 21st century, is unable to summon the past, causing human existence to fall into a state of perpetual schizophrenic present. This incapacity results in the simulation of past events, which now return as a series of anachronistic media representations, creating the illusion of historical continuity. This leads to a state of historical amnesia, where the sense of connection to the past is lost. In such a context, everyday human experience becomes fragmented and disoriented. Media, as the primary intermediaries between reality and perception, create a new reality detached from historical continuity and deeply rooted in the present moment. This new reality, shaped by media representations, blurs the boundary between the real and the simulated, further amplifying the sense of temporal dislocation.

Transmission of Information and Communication Through New Media

Lutovac S., Bešević Gajić B.

Статья научная

This theoretical work deals with the multiplication and transmission of information in everyday digital communication, whose important factors, such as time and space, form the basic component of new media. By the method of textual analysis and interpretation, I will interpret hybrid artworks created by integrating different media, which enable their information, semantic and expansion in the virtual space. It's about the artworks and information systems based on the media capabilities of the Internet and screens / displays, which reflect the theory of Lev Manovich. who, speaking of new media and "overlapping windows", believes that new digital technologies help multiply information by speeding up communication.

Use of artificial intelligence for the generation of media content

Use of artificial intelligence for the generation of media content

Branislav Sančanin, Aleksandra Penjišević

Статья научная

Artificial intelligence (AI) is a powerful catalyst that enables media organizations to optimize and improve their operations. The aim of the paper is to emphasize the importance and potential of AI during high-performance data analytics and media content generation. The focus is on responsible and ethically acceptable use of AI, which imposes the need to continuously build trust, through numerous challenges, during the management of potential risks. Standardization and mandatory publication of AI product data can pave the way for increased transparency and trust building. Otherwise, the power of AI, which has a huge potential to contribute to a better quality of life, could be transformed into a suicide tool.
