Creativity

New Media Fosters creativity in many ways. It creates a huge amount of imagination, especially with all the information that is given to us through the use of technology. There are many inspirations that we see through the internet that helps others create their own creativity. In the article “Disney Tolerates a Rap Parody of Its Critters. Buy Why” discusses how there was a (mash-up) with the characters from Walt Disney and a song called “Crank that” by Soulja Boy. A “mash-up” is basically a mixture and people created videos of certain disney characters seeming to be singing this song, but really parts of the animated movie and TV shows were edited into making it seem as they are really singing.
