When media is creating another reality, it’s critical that people have the awareness of how information is made, transmitted, and received. In the hope of helping improve people’s media literacy, this thesis aims to understand the relationship between media, information, people, and their perceived reality. My studies and design experiments questioned how people perceive reality and how does media affects people’s perception and further explored the idea of filtration throughout the communication process. .
