It has been impossible to talk today about globalization, visual image culture, and automated image processing software without talking about the development of creative concepts and their impact on this huge technological development.



Replicating the real environment in the electronic medium and enhancing it with virtual data. Presenting a composite presentation to the recipient that mixes the scene from reality with the virtual scene that was created by the electronic medium.
