SUMMARY:OXDEG: ‘Don’t forget to like\, subscribe and turn on the bell notifications’
DESCRIPTION:“We are delighted to welcome Zoë Glatt for an OxDEG talk on ‘An (auto)ethnography of YouTube creators’ labour in the online video industry’ \nIn the late 2000’s a new and exciting cultural phenomenon was bubbling under the surface. Around the world\, teens in their bedrooms were turning on their webcams to film asynchronous conversations with unknown audiences and uploading them to YouTube. Online communities started to flourish on the platform and new genres began to crystallise: vlogs\, tutorials\, comedy sketches\, video responses. In these early years being a ‘YouTuber’ was not yet a viable career and creator culture mainly flew under the radar of mainstream media organisations\, or else was viewed as trivial or insignificant. Since then\, we have seen the rise a new and powerful cross-platform creative industry. What began as pockets of amateur creators on YouTube has grown into a mature infrastructure of diverse and competing platforms\, such as Instagram\, TikTok\, Patreon\, Facebook and Twitch\, that combine online video and social networking affordances with opportunities for content creators to earn an income. \nShifting patterns of employment in the creative industries away from stable structures\, and the emergence of a new neoliberal worker-subject: entrepreneurial\, flexible\, self-directed and always available to work\, has been the topic of much academic scrutiny over the past decade (Gill 2010; Gill and Pratt 2008; Ross 2009; McRobbie 2016; Schlesinger 2016). Studies of this type of work have highlighted the collapse of boundaries between work and play\, intermittent and precarious income\, and a passionate attachment to work and the identity of creative labour (Erin-Duffy 2017). The platform-native online video industry offers new sociocultural and economic formations of creative labour\, fraught with ambivalence and precarity\, that require critical scrutiny. In particular\, the imperative for content creators to diversify income streams across multiple platforms\, brand deals\, merch and tour sales\, advertising revenue and crowdfunding\, all whilst scrutinising popularity metrics and audience feedback\, marks an extension of the neoliberal worker subjectivity. \nIn order to research the lived experiences and labour of aspiring and professional YouTube content creators\, I concluded that it was insufficient to merely watch\, like and comment on videos; I needed to become a YouTuber myself. In this talk\, as well as discussing my preliminary findings\, I reflect on my journey and experiences of using this experimental digital ethnographic method\, in addition to multi-sited online/offline fieldwork and interviews with content creators. As social media platforms have increasingly profound sociocultural impacts\, researchers need to find new methodological tools for engaging critically with this changing landscape. Autoethnography has provided me with significant insights into the labour of online creators\, from the ways in which they understand and navigate algorithms\, channel metrics and the multi-platform environment\, to the emotional highs and lows of trying to cultivate an audience.”

SUMMARY:NULab Misinformation Speaker Series: Jaime Settle
DESCRIPTION:Event featured image\, but exclude link  Event content  \n\n“Please join us for a talk by Professor Jaime Settle\, William & Mary: “Frenemies: How Social Media Polarizes America” \nAbstract: Why do Americans have such animosity for people who identify with the opposing political party? In this book\, the author argues that in the context of increasing partisan polarization among American political elites\, the way we communicate on Facebook uniquely facilitates psychological polarization among the American public.Frenemies introduces the END Framework of social media interaction. END refers to a subset of content that circulates in a social media ecosystem: a personalized\, quantified blend of politically informative expression\, news\, and discussion seamlessly interwoven into a wider variety of socially informative content. Scrolling through the News Feed triggers a cascade of processes that result in negative attitudes about those who disagree with us politically. The inherent features of Facebook\, paired with the norms of how people use the site\, heighten awareness of political identity\, bias the inferences people make about others’ political views\, and foster stereotyped evaluations of the political out-group. \nBiography: Jaime Settle is the David and Carolyn Wakefield Term Associate Professor of Government at the College of William & Mary. She is a scholar of American political behavior with expertise in the fields of political psychology and communication. Settle’s research focuses on how political interactions—in both face-to-face and online contexts—affect the way individuals perceive conflict in their environment\, evaluate other people\, and engage within the political system. She integrates tools from other disciplines—such as behavior genetics\, psychophysiology\, and data science—to inform our approach in understanding key questions within political science. Settle has published 20 peer-reviewed manuscripts or chapters in venues such as Nature\, the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences\, the American Journal of Political Science\, and the Journal of Politics. In 2018\, her first book Frenemies: How Facebook Polarizes America was published by Cambridge University Press and won a best book award from the Experiments in Politics section and an honorable mention from the Political Networks section of the American Political Science Association. She serves on the board of the American National Election Study and is an associate editor at the Journal of Experimental Political Science. Settle received her B.A. in Political Science from the University of Richmond and her Ph.D. in Political Science from the University of California at San Diego. She is the director of the Social Networks and Political Psychology Lab and co-director of the Social Science Research Methods Center. \nCo-sponsored with the Department of Political Science and the Shorenstein Center. \nThis event is free and open to the public\, but if you are not a member of the Northeastern community\, please email Sarah Connell (sa.connell[at]northeastern[dot]edu) to RSVP.” \n\n .tribe-events-single-event-description \n .tribe-events-cal-links \n Event meta

SUMMARY:The Myth of the Media: Historicizing Journalism's Role in American Democracy
DESCRIPTION:“Alternative facts and fake news have complicated our trust in the Fourth Estate\, but has our media ever been truly objective and democratic? Join BHS and the Social Science Research Council for a discussion that challenges that notion and explores America’s long-standing romanticizing of what the media is and how it functions. Race\, gender\, and power have always played an essential role defining the news we serve to the public. We’ll look at the people who have benefitted from this – and those who have been harmed – with SiriusSM host and former New York Daily News columnist Karen Hunter; Kim Gallon\, founder and director of the Black Press Research Collective and assistant professor of history at Purdue University; and Andie Tucher\, director of Columbia Journalism School’s PhD program who is currently working on a book about the history of fake news. Moderated by Kathryn Cramer Brownell\, associate professor at Purdue whose work focuses on the how media and popular culture influence American political institutions.”

SUMMARY:Facebook Made Me Do It: Social Media and Democracy | The Alliance Series
DESCRIPTION:“Social media platforms recently came under scrutiny after they failed to prevent the creation of fake accounts aimed at manipulating the 2016 U.S. presidential elections. The impact of social media on democracy and public debate is felt in many other ways: today’s algorithms\, for instance\, tend to encourage the spread of emotionally charged opinions\, and create rabbit holes of converging viewpoints rather that exposing us to conflicting perspectives; the most extreme views or those that express moral outrage also tend to gain more traction than moderate and balanced opinions. At the same time\, social media have provided new platforms for democratic debate\, encouraging a broader range of individuals to engage in political dialogue\, and have made a diversity of channels available to users on which they can express themselves. \nThis conversation on social media and democracy between Joan Donovan\, Director of the Technology and Social Change Research Project at the Harvard Kennedy School and Célia Zolynski and Judith Rochfeld\, Law Professors from Paris I Sorbonne\, is presented as part of the Alliance Series at Albertine. The conversation will be moderated by Kris-Stella Trump\, director of the Anxieties of Democracy program at the Social Science Research Council.”

SUMMARY:Reporting From the Front Lines of the Information Wars
DESCRIPTION:“Good journalism is no longer sufficient to combat the assault on truth and democracy. Media companies are striving to counter the threat of information warfare by working in new and different ways\, and to respond to the ethics challenges posed by this struggle. \nAt this exclusive event\, you’ll hear from journalists—including Daily Beast Editor Noah Schactman\, NPR Media Reporter David Folkenflik and Rappler co-founder Maria Ressa—about building credibility in the era of liars and leaks. You’ll dissect case studies with standards editors including The New York Times’ Phil Corbett and CNN’s Stephen Holmes. And you’ll better prepare for the future with insights from researchers\, security experts\, and big tech companies. \nJoin the Columbia Journalism Review\, the Poynter Institute\, and the Tow Center for Digital Journalism as we define the extent of this new information war and identify new best practices for media organizations. The event marks the formal launch of Columbia’s Craig Newmark Center for Journalism Ethics and Security and Poynter’s Craig Newmark Center for Ethics and Leadership.”

SUMMARY:Surveillance Capitalism\, Human Autonomy\, and You
DESCRIPTION:“Every time we search on a browser\, buy something online\, or post to our friends on social media\, we are leveraging free resources to save time and money. But our clicks and keystrokes also fuel a massive\, algorithm-powered industry that exploits our online experiences for profit. These dynamics are the focus of Shoshana Zuboff’s The Age of Surveillance Capitalism\, a chilling expose of today’s digital economy. Zuboff details how data about our digital activities is used to create predictive models of our behavior\, and how a range of corporate entities manipulate that data for profit and power. Join us for this illuminating discussion about surveillance capitalism’s exploitation of human experience in the digital age and how\, according to Zuboff\, our privacy\, security\, and the very idea of free will are being undermined.”

DESCRIPTION:“The Trump presidency brought revolutionary change to the Republican Party. Where will the American right’s decisive turn lead the conservative media? \nPresident Trump’s brand of conservative politics won out against the establishment in the Republican Party and is forever changing the conservative movement in America.While some conservative thought leaders spoke out against the outsider presidential candidate\, and some continue to do so\, President Trump has since been widely embraced by his party.\nThe Trump phenomenon is mirrored in the conservative media with news outlets prospering from pro-Trump coverage amid a difficult time for the journalism industry.” \n[…]
