Institutions

Institutions can be anything, from school to home. They are basically anything with codes and values to follow. Media institutions are:
-Internet
-Film
-Music
-Broadcast
-Print
Each of these institutions can not work without the others. For example, music can not work with out broadcast and internet to advertise it.
Global patterns are always changing, and as they do so does the concept of the institutions.
