Gary Hayes's curator insight,

Quote "“Television is not a device anymore,” Mary-José Monpetit, lecturer and pioneering work on social, wireless and multi-screen television at the MIT Media Lab, said. “It’s content.” “If we talk about using the content to create a community then we are using television content to create a community.” Ms. Monpetit noted that there is a disconnect in the experience viewers have on a television and the experience they have online. While there is a connection forming between television watching and the online world there is still no way of making it a seamless experience. So instead of creating a traditional interactive television experience, one of her students at MIT created an app to track Super PACs during the last US Presidential election.

Gary, in your opinion Mary-José Monpetit refers to tv set or television (contents for television)? because tv set in my idea is one of the available screens. In a transmedial point of view tv screen content tells the leading part of the story but even in this case is just a screen.

2013 will be a interesting year for television. Ad revenues vs subscription. And social tv and second screen+transmedia will play a key role.
