Creativity

Creativity is not something that can be defined; it is all up to you. New Media does aid individuals in executing their creative thoughts in various ways.  One of the most important sites that aids in this process is YouTube. Many use this site for things from showcasing their talents from singing to really anything else you can think of. Some of the most famous stars at the moment have been discovered off of YouTube like, Justin Bieber who is a name most people know. I also found out that there is a new show on VH1 where a woman does impressions of other celebrities, and she was found on YouTube all from doing these impressions. The article “The New Math of Mashups” by Sasha Jones talks about how music today, is very comparable with music from the past with the use of new media; the example they give is about a Jay-Z song.  This is something that happens in a lot of music today, but at times goes unnoticed because people do not realize what song the current one originates from. New Media has upgraded the creativity process. Today, there is the ability to have access to things that would have not existed event ten years ago.
