What do we call what we do?

I think possibly a way to start to define what we are calling our writing when produced through multiple mediums and presented in multiple mediums is an acknowledgement of how many forces are at work in the fundamental blocks that support the entirety of the work.  These fundamental blocks, as I will call them here, are the multiple ways in which a worker works for the collectiveness of one piece.  There has to be a cameraman for every camera and a musician, or speaker, for every microphone, an editor for every piece of audio, an editor for every piece of film, and a storyteller for every idea.  A way to begin to determine the type of writing and the way people are writing is to step back and just look at who and what are happening in the piece to make it a complete piece.  So if we can step back and notice how many forms of different writing make up the piece, I would guess that maybe the next part of what was going on in production, is how many people are involved with the piece and how many people are intellectually involved with the idea or underlying meaning of what is produced?  If there is a conglomerate of writers, should the piece fall under a different category of final product?  Maybe? I don't know.  Should it be considered something more, or different if one person is behind a production?

But lets say that someone just records a video of themselves and sends it to their mom instead of writing a letter to say hello.  They are the creators of all of the aspects of that product, but a product such as this lacks intellectual potency or a degree of "literariness".  There is no value for humanity behind it.  So when it is possible for most any person to create product that encompasses many forms of recording so easily, another step in defining what we are doing is the question, "what can this product shed light on?"  What does it tell us that we need to know.  It's sort of like making the difference between the cannon of literature and dime novels.  While there is nothing wrong with the dime novel, it holds nothing essential for humanity.  James Baldwin wrote something along the lines that only a good artist is telling its society what's wrong with its functions.  So to judge the value of a work by what it can do for the good of us all is not a new idea and should be considered when trying to interpret what it is that we engage in when we produce an idea into modern modes of presentation.

I guess that then to sum it all up is to say that when looking into the works of presentation and production we have to acknowledge how many genres of production are used in the product and how many people are involved in the production and what is the purpose or usefulness of the product to those that interpret it.  But what do we call it, this newer form of presenting ideas? I just want to put a string of words together like "multi-scriptural production" or "modarts" for multiple modes of art together at once.  Some brand new word I think is in need here, unfortunately it is not one that falls place so easily like "googling".
