Part I: Theory“Immediacy, Hypermediacy,
and Remediation”
July 5, 2011
+Immediacy
Definition?
+Immediacy
Bolter and Grusin define it as the promise of “experience
without mediation”(23)
+Hypermediacy
Bolter and Grusin explain that “the
logic of hypermediacy acknowledges
multiple acts of representation
and makes them visible”(33-34).
+Remediation
Definition?
+Remediation
Bolter and Grusin define it as “the representation of one medium in
another” or as a kind of
“refashioning” of a medium (45).

Keywords
Each pair will receive two keyword cards. Fully define these keywords as they are discussed in this
chapter. Then describe how they connect to Immediacy, and/or Hypermediacy, and/or
Remediation in a way that demonstrates your understanding of these central terms. In addition, find a visual example of how the term works and post your findings on the blog. Be sure to include all group members’ names in the post. After that,
each group will present their blog post to the group.

Remediation Mapping
Each group will be given an artifact. Your job, as a group, is to uncover the types of media each artifact might be remediating—push yourselves to come up with as many possibilities as you can, using your book as a resource. Tell us, also, if it represents hypermediacy or immediacy and why you think so. Post your findings on the blog including the link to your artifact.
