Paraphrases

Abstract

In a way, the ‘fusion’ of the different senses on the digital platform and the real-time creative thinking that goes with it, takes us back to a ‘golden age’, an era when communication and art were more holistic. Electronics and digital technology lead our attention back to ‘unity’. The different media, the ‘modules’, are naturally transmuting into each other with the new and newer possibilities offered by technology. Thus the ‘contemporary shaman’ performs a holistic approach, he evokes, remembers, transmits collective knowledge, etc. This essay is primarily concerned with the presentation and analysis of student works created for a course task on the theme ‘Paraphrase’ (2021, 2023).
