The future is new media

How old is new..

A strange question to ask,but as we think, this moment has already become a past.
And as we design something, it no more remains new.So, a question arises that how can one think of "new media"..

I think its all about having a foresight and anticipation..

the future is new media...or as medians we should think of a "new" future..
