Introduction
In recent years, I have been researching intergenerational media communication in the digital media environment. I have developed the author's concept of media generations, which distinguishes "analogue" media generations, "digital" media generations and an intermediate one - the "digital borderline" media generation. In my research, I try to understand how the transfer of communicative and cultural memory between media generations occurs and whether it happens at all.
