New media theories refer to the evolving concepts and frameworks that seek to explain the impact of digital technologies on society, culture, and communication. These theories explore how platforms like social media, virtual reality, and the internet have transformed the way information is created, disseminated, and consumed. Some key areas of study within new media theories include networked communication, participatory culture, and the blurring of boundaries between producers and consumers of media content. Scholars in this field are constantly examining the ways in which new media technologies shape our understanding of identity, power, and community in the digital age.
