Summary 內容: 新媒體的興起彷彿為我們帶來一個發夢的空間。
這個奇幻空間為大眾帶來一個實踐夢想的大舞台,令我們可從網絡與現實交織的世界中尋找自己的方向。當我們成長於這個「機不離手」的時代,所有人可透過各式各樣的社交平台展現創意及自我;同時亦有人將電競選手及網絡紅人視為理想職業。這個屏幕上指尖下的世界,既虛幻又實在,到底是「廢青」的溫床、還是一個新世代的夢樂園?當中又蘊藏着多少的可能?

New media provides us with a space for dreaming - it can be a platform for us all to have our dreams come true. While living in this age of digital gadgets, we can simply share our thoughts and creative ideas on various social media platforms, and even earn a living as an online influencer (a.k.a. key opinion leader). Indeed, the virtual world constructed by new media could be both a place for cultivating dreams and escaping from reality. What kinds of possibilities might be derived from this new world?
