In publishing, art, and communication, content is the information and experience(s) that is directed towards an end-user or audience.

Content is "something that is to be expressed through some medium, as speech, writing or any of various arts".

Content can be delivered via many different media including the Internet, television, audio CDs, books, magazines, and live events, such as conferences and stage performances.

Reading is a complex "cognitive process" of decoding symbols in order to construct or derive meaning (reading comprehension).

Reading is a means of language acquisition, communication, and of sharing information and ideas.

Like all languages, it is a complex interaction between the text and the reader which is shaped by the reader’s prior knowledge, experiences, attitude, and language community which is culturally and socially situated.

The reading process requires continuous practice, development, and refinement.

In addition, reading requires creativity and critical analysis.

Consumers of literature make ventures with each piece, innately deviating from literal words to create images that make sense to them in the unfamiliar places the texts describe.

Because reading is such a complex process, it cannot be controlled or restricted to one or two interpretations.

There are no concrete laws in reading, but rather allows readers an escape to produce their own products introspectively.

This promotes deep exploration of texts during interpretation.

Relevance is the concept of one topic being connected to another topic in a way that makes it useful to consider the second topic when considering the first.

The concept of relevance is studied in many different fields, including cognitive sciences, logic, and library and information science.

Most fundamentally, however, it is studied in epistemology (the theory of knowledge).

Different theories of knowledge have different implications for what is considered relevant and these fundamental views have implications for all other fields as well.

An audience is a group of people who participate in a show or encounter a work of art, literature (in which they are called "readers"), theatre, music (in which they are called "listeners"), video games (in which they are called "players"), or academics in any medium.

Audience members participate in different ways in different kinds of art; some events invite overt audience participation and others allowing only modest clapping and criticism and reception.
