Introduction to Multimedia

Multimedia is a combination of text, graphic, sound, animation, and video that is delivered by computer.

When you allow the user to control what and when these elements are delivered, it is interactive multimedia.

When you provide a structure of linked elements through which the user can navigate, interactive multimedia becomes hypermedia.
