Document Summary
May just be using the tool for productive ends. The process through which people use messages to generate meanings within and across channels, media, and contexts. Messages and meanings are not the same thing** What something says and what its intended meaning is isn"t always in sync. Voice messages are more channels rich than an text message. Would want a more channel lean environment if telling a lie. Messages we can create and meanings we can discern within the context. Noise (4 types) - whatever interferes with either/both encoding or decoding. External to the interaction (to the encoder/decoder) The batteries keep dying in the mic (affects encoding b/c the mic is losing the amplification of her voice, affects decoding b/c we can"t hear her as well) A function of who we are - anatomy or physiology. Your physiological noise can be someone else"s physical noise.
