HW Creativity

Over the years, media has slowly shaped itself towards the culture of the generation. Content on media is often a reflection of who and what the culture is, especially in the United States. As far back as I can remember, the Internet was simply a tool to access useful information and current news. The expansion of the Internet allowed new media to increase their capabilities. Besides information, there is a vast majority of people who use the Internet for entertainment. Now, Internet entertainment is revolving around parodies, memes, and viral videos. For example, Disney allowed content creators to turn their famous characters like Mickey mouse and Winnie the Pooh into rap stars. Disney is aware of the current pop culture and probably allowed it for more publicity as well. The Internet has gotten a lot more creative because of the sheer amount of media tools made available to them.
