Six provocations à propos des big data
No full textBig data, la nécessité d’un débat Il nous a semblé intéressant de traduire, de façon collaborative (via Framapad), l’essai original que viennent de publier Danah Boyd et Kate Crawford présentant « Six provocations au sujet du phénomène des big data ». Ces chercheuses, orientées vers l’ethnographie des usages des technologies de communication, s’interrogent – en toute connaissance de cause – sur les limites épistémologiques, méthodologiques, mais aussi éthiques des big data : champ d’études qu..
Sharing news, making sense, saying thanks: patterns of talk on Twitter during the Queensland floods
Get PDFAbstract: This paper examines the discursive aspects of Twitter communication during the floods in the summer of 2010–2011 in Queensland, Australia. Using a representative sample of communication associated with the #qldfloods hashtag on Twitter, we coded and analysed the patterns of communication. We focus on key phenomena in the use of social media in crisis communication: communal sense-making practices, the negotiation of participant roles, and digital convergence around shared events. Social media is used both as a crisis communication and emergency management tool, as well as a space for participants to engage in emotional exchanges and communication of distress.Authored by Frances Shaw, Jean Burgess, Kate Crawford and Axel Bruns
Young people, social media, social network sites and sexual health communication in Australia
No full textSocial media and social network sites (SNS) are an evolving area for sexual health communication with young people. They present opportunities and challenges for sexual health professionals and young people alike, such as learning through interactivity and addressing concerns about privacy. In this article, we present and discuss the findings from six rural and urban focus groups with young people in Australia about the use of social media and SNS for sexual health communication. We discuss a number of issues related to the use of social media and SNS for sexual health communication, such as concerns about bullying, privacy, and the stigma attached to sexual health.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
A Perspective on AI and Data in Design. Interview With Kate Crawford
Get PDFIn this comprehensive interview, Professor Kate Crawford discusses the complex and pervasive impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems on our global ecosystem, critically examining the material realities and extensive influence of these infrastructures. Delving into the socio-political and his- torical aspects of design in the context of AI, she shows that design is intrinsically linked to the consequences of capital- ism, colonialism, and the concentration of power in tech- nological systems. She challenges designers to acknowl- edge these connections and stimulate critical discussions about the role of design, promoting a vision where they can encourage diversity, challenge AI-driven homogenization, and question the processes of constructing meaning and decision-making in technology. Prof. Crawford posits that our relationship with technology is integral to our futures and underscores the importance of individual and collective pol- itics in shaping these outcomes. The discussion advocates for a shift from technology-centrism to prioritizing collective planetary needs. It urges us to consider what kind of world we want to live in and what role technology should play in it
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
