Media space

Recording and retrieval, integrated with persistent live connection, was a major distinguishing feature between Media Space and videoconferencing as it was understood at the time.

The concept has consequentially evolved into encompassing a wider spectrum of utilization techniques and styles as the practice was no longer depended on fixed-station installations to function.

[4] Soon, the development of software that establish the said recording and retrieval through a continuous live (internet) connection on demand followed, making the function of creating media spaces within singular yet versatile devices possible.

[7] During this time, the rapid integration of modern media space technologies and their utilization as the main vessel to most human interactions[7] has had long-term effects on the overall business practices that are still observable and persistent today.

For example, many of the videoconferencing software (i.e. groupware[9]) such as Zoom, Skype, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, and many more are still actively used by most businesses and educational institutions in the aftermath of the pandemic, although not as much as they did during it.
