The presentational media produce of Communication

The presentational media produce of Communication

  1. acts
  2. artificial languages
  3. passivity
  4. physical noise

Correct Ans: (A)

Explanation:

Presentational media play a unique role in communication by creating acts that represent meaning rather than merely transmitting data or causing interference. These acts are intentional performancesโ€”such as speeches, plays, visual art, or even public gesturesโ€”that communicate specific messages in symbolic or expressive ways.

Unlike transmission-based media, which focus on delivering content from sender to receiver, presentational media involve a direct engagement with audiences. These media encourage interpretation, making the act itself the message. For instance, a stage performance doesn’t just convey dialogueโ€”it delivers emotion, tone, movement, and cultural symbols, all at once. This richness in delivery creates a multilayered communication act that viewers experience and interpret individually.

Furthermore, these acts often rely on non-verbal cues, body language, or visual metaphors, which extend beyond the limitations of spoken or written words. As a result, presentational media enable more expressive and context-dependent forms of communication.

It’s also important to distinguish this option from the others. Presentational media do not create artificial languages (B), which are constructed systems like programming or symbolic logic. They also donโ€™t directly cause passivity (C); instead, they often provoke thought and emotional response. Finally, they aren’t a source of physical noise (D), which refers to literal interference in the communication channel.

By focusing on “acts,” presentational media emphasize expression and interaction, making them essential in human communication, particularly in cultural, ritualistic, or artistic contexts.
