No full textMediatisation, Digitisation and Datafication: The Role of the Social in Contemporary Data Capitalism
No full textThis article discusses the relations between mediatisation and datafication, and how the process of datafication has integrated several diverse value forms in complex interrelations. The first section outlines the rise of datafication in the wake of the technological development of digitisation in combination with new business models of the media and communications industries, leading to a tighter integration between these and other sectors of society. The second accounts for how this development paves way for certain specific value forms that result from this integrative process, and how the interrelation between value forms introduces a shift in the valuation processes of late modern data capitalism, where the social takes a prominent position. The final section discusses the relationship between datafication and mediatisation. The argument is that although datafication introduces a new phase in the mediatisation process, the former also extends beyond the latter
Rola antropomorfizacji i genderyzacji maszyn w komunikacji ekstrapersonalnej
No full textThe development of advanced ICT – Information and Communication Technologies – tools leads to mediatization of social society on an increasingly large scale. The use of activities on the smart technology market, the use of virtual assistants are just some of already common interactions between man and machine. The development of artificial intelligence and robotics has an increasingly strong impact on the world of media and social communication. Nowadays, technological development is connected with improvement of intelligent systems based on biological intelligence. Thus, artifacts, equipped with features characteristic for human beings, belong to the circle of communication actors, fulfilling the role of senders and recipients of content. The article is based on the review and analysis of literature in the field of Human-Computer Interaction and Robot Computer-Interaction, as well as the relationship between human and non-human agents, along with the social impact of anthropomorphization and genderization of products of modern technology.Rozwój zaawansowanych narzędzi ICT (ang. information and communication technologies), prowadzi do mediatyzacji życia społecznego na coraz większą skalę. Użytkowanie dostępnych na rynku technologii typu smart, korzystanie z pomocy wirtualnych asystentów to tylko niektóre z przykładów powszechnych już interakcji, pomiędzy człowiekiem a maszyną. Rozwój sztucznej inteligencji oraz robotyki coraz mocniej oddziałuje na świat mediów i komunikacji społecznej. Współcześnie, postęp technologiczny jest w szczególności związany z ulepszaniem inteligentnych systemów, dla których pierwowzór stanowi inteligencja biologiczna. Tym samym artefakty wyposażane w cechy, charakterystyczne dla istot ludzkich dołączają do kręgu aktorów komunikowania, pełniąc tym samym role nadawców oraz odbiorców treści. Artykuł oparty na przeglądzie i analizie piśmiennictwa z zakresu Human-Computer Interaction oraz Robot Computer-Interaction, traktuje o relacjach pomiędzy człowiekiem a pozaludzkimi agentami, uwzględniając jednocześnie społeczne konsekwencje antropomorfizacji i genderyzacji wytworów nowoczesnych technologii
Fighting COVID-19 with Data: An Analysis of Data Journalism Projects Submitted to Sigma Awards 2021
No full textThe COVID-19 health crisis has been heavily reported on an international scale for several years. This has pushed news journalism in a datafied direction: reporters have learnt how to analyse and visualise the statistical effects of COVID-19 on various sectors of society. As a result, in 2021, the international Sigma Awards competition for data journalism highlighted coverage of the pandemic. Using content analysis with qualitative elements, this paper analyses the shortlisted works covering COVID-19 from the competition (n=73). It focuses on the data references made by the teams – sources, type of both reference and data used – showing statistics from official institutions to be the most used type of data. It also lists the main problems journalists had to face while working on their projects. Most often these problems fell into two categories: specific characteristics of the project, mostly ‘time consuming’, and issues with data
The Right-Wing Perspective: Populist Frames and Agenda on Facebook in Central and Eastern Europe
No full textPolitical and public debates unfolding online provide various spaces for interaction between political actors, citizens and media outlets. This environment can be employed for diverse agendas, frames and biases, especially within populist narratives. This work examines the discourse of Central and Eastern European right-wing populists from Austria, Germany, Hungary and Poland (2015-2021). To identify discursive patterns within public Facebook posts (n=192,057) by 31 party, movement and partisan news media pages, created by API interrogation, right-wing discourse is analyzed through semi-automated quantitative content analysis based on text mining, in conjunction with qualitative content analysis of messages that generated the highest engagement-rates (n=80). Key findings indicate both national and international narrative patterns with a focus on political, social and ethnic opponents, by incorporating Engesser et al.’s (2017) core elements of right-wing populist discourse within Master Populist Frame building (Heinisch & Mazzoleni, 2017), thus marking the contemporary agenda of European right-wing discourse
What Does Google Opinion Rewards Require and Get from Users?
No full textThis article focuses on the mobile app called “Google Opinion Rewards” (GOR), which is used as a data collection tool in market research and academic research. Developed by Google Surveys, GOR deals with voluntary participation of app users in data sharing in return for rewards. In-depth interviews were conducted with 12 participants from the USA, the UK and Turkey to gain comprehensive knowledge about the app ecosystem. The aim of the interviews was to understand the motivations of GOR users for using the app, and explore the counter-surveillance strategies users have developed to avoid surveillance. The findings indicate that most GOR users share their information recklessly even if they have security concerns and that users who are actively involved in surveillance, knowingly or unknowingly, and who want to maximise their income develop masking strategies against surveillance
