Disclaimer: I apologize beforehand this is not funny, but it is interesting.
In the future, images will seamlessly jump from one media to the next. I saw this in a commercial. It wasn't literal in the commercial, but in the future it will be. Remember the gameboy w/ game cube connection? Now replace the connection wirelessly and fluidly and you get the idea. But that is small stuff, because the media itself is still limited by the screen. The leap media needs to make is to dispose of the screen. So that instead a TV program being a moving picture. A TV program is an actual program, it downloads and adapts to the environment. Dora the explorer and I go on a treasure hunt around my house. I look in a pair of shoes and there is the clue. I touch it and it jumps into the air, unfolding and singing its song. At the half hour slot, its over. The images are carried on my person. They are projected by my clothing or my cell phone. The box that the signal is sent from, the TV is completely aware of the house and all its objects, in much the same sonar or radar is accomplished, so it can customize the episode to fit inside my home. The episode looks for a few parameters. A six inch clearance from the floor to hide the clue. A surface table-esque in nature to set up a puzzle. The parameters can be compromised, the clearance might be a doorway or the table actually the floor if the required objects can't be found. Does this sound to outrageous? Trying telling that to the Orville Brothers.
A way for my family to reassure itself that I haven't lost my mind yet. I emphasize the yet.

I agree that this is exactly how the future is going to be... but even more so... like no one really has to learn anything because information will be at our fingertips... gross. I wrote this paper a couple years ago as a final class project. I hope it is an enjoyable read. http://www.peteyboy.com/IMMM.doc
