Remediation Questions

After doing the readings, many questions ran through my mind...
1. The author talks about the immediacy with the technology today and how it leads to hypermediacy, but what would have happened to our world if there wasn't this immediacy?

2. He talked about how photography took away from the realism of the painting and how it "removed the artist as an agent who stood between the viewer and the reality of the image." Has this happened with other technology where it is still the same but completly different as well?

3. Why is our society so fascinated by the different media and mediation that is in diverse forms technology, such as the television and the world wide web, digital imaging etc?
