Entertaiment

Article about Entertaiment

The act of entertaining, or the work or practice of entertaining.
The word entertainment has long been a complex topic, and one that is still undergoing transformational shifts in its meaning, functions, and forms. Its familiar forms have demonstrated the capacity to span different media, and many of these have proved to be remarkably resilient in their ability to transcend adversity and maintain continuity. This is partly due to the fact that entertainment has proven to have a seemingly unlimited potential for creative remix.
