43. Explanation
McLuhan divides media into ‘hot’ and ‘cold’
media.
A hot medium enhances one sense, using high
concentration. There is no room for
interpretation
A cold medium offers still a lot of room for
explanation and uses more senses

Transmedia is a fancy word for a simple
concept: “Telling stories across multiple
platforms”

Crossmedia is telling the same story using
different kinds of media - but without using
the typical characterics of the media for the
story.
