         Multimodality is the process of combining different modes to portray the same information. A mode is the way something is presented to an audience, not the information itself. For example a video that talks about music, compared to a paper that talks about music those are two different modes. The tension between kress and wysockis view on multimodality is that kress beleives in using many modes to get his point across as to where wysockis view is to get his point across using fewer modes but using them the right way. I also feel like kress focuses more on the visual aspect of the mode more than wysocki.
