Romeno’s response to the Lev Manovich Reading

I found the reading interesting as the author explains how the media is now, “programmable” which is a strong term. I believe that the author is right and in fact in my opinion it is more programmable than he writes as there is so much fake news and controversies created from thin air. I also like how the author regards human language as discrete, “A human language is discrete on most scales: we speak in sentences; a sentence is made from words; a word consists from morphemes, and so on“. I learned about the history of the world wide web with really ancient web browsers like, “Netomat” and how structural programming was used in applications such as Macromedia Director’s Lingo. Overall it was an interesting read and got a lot out of it and I do think there is a huge change in the forms of media.
