5 principles by Lev Manovich„The Language of New Media“

1. Numerical Representation – „media becomes programmable“

2. Modularity – „fractal structure of new media“

3. Automation – „The human can be removed from the creative process, at least in part.“

4. Variability - „media as a liquid“

5. Transcoding - two layers of media, the "computer" layer and the "cultural" layer. The computer layer is the functional layer, whereas the culture layer is more of the meaning behind the function from a human perspective.
