Remediation: understanding new media J. David Bolter, Richard Grusin
Publisher: MIT Press

Of a medium was always another medium e.g the content of a movie is a novel or play, and the content of writing/print is speech (later adapted by Jay Bolter and Richard Grusin in “Remediation: Understanding New Media”).

In their book, Remediation: Understanding New Media, Bolter and Grusin state, “Our one prediction is that any future media will also define their cultural meaning with reference to established technologies. Bolter and Grusin (2000), who coined Remediation traces its intuition from McLuhan's notion that the content of a new media is an old media – McLuhan actually thought of "retrieval" as a "law" of media.
