Mapping the dynamics between parliamentary debates and online extremism
by Schaefer, M.T. (Mirko) 30 Apr '24

30 Apr '24

Dear list, at Utrecht University's Data School<https://dataschool.nl/en/> we investigated dynamics between parliamentary debates and online extremism. We collected nearly 50 million messages from Twitter and Telegram, and parliamentary debates of 1,5 years. Our analysis shows how expressions in parliament are fueling rage online or are informed by framing and expressions voiced online. Here is the English translation of our research report: Playing with Fire. How the Interplay between the Dutch House of Representatives and Social Media Fuels Rage https://dataschool.nl/en/news/playing-with-fire/ It is also probably the last massive dataset we could collect from Twitter. Don't hesitate to contact us for questions or comments.

New book announcement - 'Social Media: The Convergence of Public and Personal Communication' (second edition)
by Graham Meikle 30 Apr '24

30 Apr '24

Hi everyone With the usual apologies for self-promotion and cross-posting, some of you may be interested in the completely revised and updated second edition of my book about social media, published today by Routledge. You can find more details and read the book’s introductory chapter here<https://www.routledge.com/Social-Media-The-Convergence-of-Public-and-Person…>. Here’s the back cover blurb to give you an idea: From Facebook and YouTube to TikTok and WeChat, this accessible book explores the relationships between public and personal communication on social media to understand their impacts on users’ everyday lives. Social media have made possible new kinds of relationships, entertainment, and politics, and enabled billions of people to experience new forms of communication, community, and communion. But social media are also profit-driven, data-mining corporations, and their core business model is often built around targeted surveillance that enables the commercial exploitation of their users’ everyday lives. Graham Meikle explores the tensions between these different dimensions of social media, engaging with questions of communication, data, remix, news, visibility, citizenship, and regulation. This second edition has been substantially revised: more than half of the text is entirely new to this edition, and those sections that remain have been completely updated. This new edition includes analysis of the data-driven business models of major social media firms, and of how these firms are expanding into new areas such as AI. It also includes discussion of major developments in news, surveillance, and activism on social media, as well as a new chapter on regulation. This book is an ideal critical introduction to social media in all their complexity. All the best, gm --------------------- Professor Graham Meikle Director, Communication and Media Research Institute College of Design, Creative and Digital Industries University of Westminster, UK National Teaching Fellow<https://www.advance-he.ac.uk/awards/teaching-excellence-awards/national-tea…> Latest books Deepfakes<https://www.politybooks.com/bookdetail?book_slug=deepfakes--9781509548200> (Polity, 2023) Social Media<https://www.routledge.com/Social-Media-The-Convergence-of-Public-and-Person…> (Routledge, 2024) The University of Westminster is a charity and a company limited by guarantee.

Researching Social Media After the API: A One Day Workshop - University of Liverpool (and online) - Wednesday 19th June 2024
by McLoughlin, Liam 30 Apr '24

30 Apr '24

Dear Friends, Please find the below CFP on Researching Social Media After the API. Researching Social Media After the API: A One Day Workshop University of Liverpool (and online) Wednesday 19th June 2024 (exact times to be confirmed!) Deadline for submission: Friday 24th May 2024 In the recent past, social media platforms became more open about working alongside academic researchers and crucially, enabling academic access to their data in order to facilitate political communication research (and many other forms of research besides). However, this has been dramatically reversed in recent years in what Axel Bruns (2019) has referred to as the “APIcalyspe”. Both Meta and X (formerly Twitter) have withdrawn or sought to restrict access to their platforms for academic research by making it prohibitively expensive. The discipline now stands at a crossroads (Bruns, 2019). Either accept and adapt to the new access arrangements, most likely to the detriment of the scope, volume, and overall quality of the research, or consider methodological innovations and workarounds to examine these platforms central to our everyday existence. To this end, we would like to invite contributions to a one-day workshop to be held in hybrid format (online and in person, at the University of Liverpool), to discuss how we might continue to research social media platforms under these difficult conditions. Potential topics could include (but are not restricted to): - researching the ‘black box’ (documenting and analysing communication on closed platforms such as WhatsApp/Discord/ etc. - The significance of small-N case studies - Researching dead or declining platforms - The ethics of collaborating with technology companies - Researching content moderation practices - Practical reflections on specific methods - Qualitative approaches Please submit a 300 word abstract outlining the topic of your proposed contribution along with your name and contact information. Please also indicate if you would prefer to contribute online or in person. Abstracts addressing political research topics (broadly defined) will be prioritized. Abstracts should be sent to Emily Harmer: E.Harmer(a)liverpool.ac.uk<mailto:E.Harmer@liverpool.ac.uk> by 24thMay 2024. The workshop is funded by DigiPol: Centre for Digital Politics, Media and Democracy<https://www.liverpool.ac.uk/communication-and-media/research/digi-pol/> at the University of Liverpool. We have a small pot of money to assist with travel costs to attend in person. Priority will be given to PGRs or unwaged/precariously employed colleagues. If you would like to be considered for a travel bursary, please indicate this in your submission so we can assess demand.

Steve Jones Lecture features Jean Burgess in 2024 ICA
by Sarina Chen 29 Apr '24

29 Apr '24

Dear Colleagues, Greetings! Jean Burgess will give the Steve Jones Internet Research Lecture in the 2024 International Communication Association (ICA) Conference on Saturday, June 23, at Gold Coast Convention and Exhibition Centre, in Gold Coast, Australia. The title of Burgess’ lecture is "Why the GenAI Moment Needs Communication and Media Research.” Burgess notes that Generative AI (GenAI) moment, marked most emphatically by the release and widespread adoption of large language and multimodal models in 2022-2023, represents a paradigm shift in the history of AI, its meanings, and its roles in society - and it is a paradigm shift to which communication and media research is uniquely well positioned to respond. Burgess indicates that GenAI is fundamentally an information, communication and media phenomenon. In addition to operating and being applied predictively, analytically, and discriminatively, Burgess believes that AI is now emphatically expressive, communicative, and agentive in its operations and uses. It is already deepening existing tendencies toward personalization and customization in our media environment. It is also rapidly being integrated into the infrastructures, platforms, and interfaces of the internet and digital media whose characteristics and cultures communication and media researchers have spent the last several decades working out how to observe and study. In this talk, Burgess argues that communication and media researchers have much to offer - theoretically, methodologically, and pragmatically - as we all try to deal with the challenges and possibilities suggested by GenAI. In doing so, Burgess positions the GenAI moment within a far longer history that includes other key moments of transformation, such as those marked by the emergence and adoption of the World Wide Web, the smartphone, and social media platforms. Like these technologies, Burgess argues that GenAI is a potentially general purpose technology that is likely to have significant implications for a wide range of other societal domains. Working through the history of scholarship focused on these and other examples, Burgess hopes to show how digital communication and media studies scholars could be playing a far more central role than we have in the recent past, as our societies and cultures grapple with the further transformations unlikely to unfold over the coming decade. Jean Burgess is Distinguished Professor of Digital Media at the Queensland University of Technology (QUT) Digital Media Research Center, and in the QUT School of Communication. She researches and publishes on issues of cultural participation in new media contexts, with a particular focus on user-created content, online social networks, and co-creative media including digital storytelling. For more information regarding her experiences, awards, and publications, please see https://research.qut.edu.au/dmrc/people/jean-burgess/ Steve Jones Internet Research Lecture Series, established by Carl Couch Center for Social and Internet Research (CCCSIR, www.cccsir.com) in 2003, brings leading Internet researchers to annual ICA conferences to promote the development and interest of Internet research. With the interdisciplinary nature of Internet research, the lecture series brings researchers from various disciplines as well as industry leaders to establish dialogues with communication researchers about topics and issues of Internet research. The theme of Steve Jones Lecture Series is " The Internet as Culture.” For more information about this lecture and lecture series please contact Shing-Ling Sarina Chen at sarina.chen(a)uni.edu.
