1) In the "Introduction" by Jay Bolter, he states that 'Media technologies are agents in our culture without falling into the traps of technological determinism'. What exactly is technological determinism, and how does it relate to media technologies, such as tv, the internet, etc.?
2) Immediacy depends on hypermediacy, Bolter explains how filmmakers use live-action footage as well as computer compositing, is there any other examples of hypermediacy with other types of media?
3) How, in 20th century art, can a viewer look at or see through the piece (for example Bolter uses the example of collages)?

In response to question 3, I think the way a viewer can see through a piece in the 20th century is by looking pass the layers when using the example of a collage and to focus on the correlation of the items linked together as one. Also, by stepping outside of the box and maybe utilizing the resources that we have today to understand the author and the meaning behind the peice.
