Intermediality

Abstract: Intermediality refers to the interconnectedness of modern media of communication. First, the term denotes communication through several discourses at once, including through combinations of different sensory modalities of interaction, for instance music and moving images.

“…More generally, the concept has been used to describe instances where communication relations are maintained by multiple media [24] and where media multiplexity is associated with a higher communication quality.

What this means is that intermediality encompasses numerous different relations between media, which, according to Jensen (2016), can be divided into three distinctive categories:…”
