23 páginas ; Audiences play a fundamental role in disseminating and evaluating news content, and one of the big questions facing news organizations is what elements make content viral in the digital environment. This comparative study of the United States, Brazil and Argentina explores what values and topics present in news shared online predict audience interaction on social media. Findings shed light on what news values and topics trigger more audience responses on Facebook and Twitter. At the same time, a comparison between popular content produced by traditional media versus online-native media reveals that the former lean more toward government-related news and conflict/controversy news values than online native media. Brazilian stories prompted more social media interactivity than content from the United States or Argentina. Through content analysis, this study contributes to improving our understanding of audiences' news values preferences on social networks. It also helps us to recognize the role of users' online activities (sharing, commenting and liking) in the social construction of news and meaning inside the networked sphere. Finally, it opens an old media debate about whether providing and sharing too much media content with conflict, controversy and oddity could potentially hinder understanding and agreement in society. Articles were collected via media tracking and the data collection company NewsWhip.

Information consumption is not an independent activity anymore. Instead, it forms part of a continuous connection to the digital space. Thus, users do no often deliberately search for news on social networks. Instead, it is found accidentally amongst other social or entertainment contents. The phenomenon of incidental exposure is an emerging trend in digital consumption, having ramifications for political participation and citizens' understanding of public affairs. This work provides a comparative analysis of digital users' incidental exposure to news in four Spanish-speaking countries, on three platforms: Facebook, YouTube, and Twitter. Samples from Argentina (n = 2,003), Chile (n = 2,005), Spain (n = 2,006) and Mexico (n = 2,003), have been used from those surveyed in the Digital News Report 2017. The results show that a) Spain is the country with the highest incidental exposure rate among users who use social networks to be informed; b) it is more frequent when using Facebook and YouTube than on Twitter; and c) age, ideological orientation and the degree of interest in news influence this phenomenon. ; Hoy en día el consumo informativo ha dejado de ser una actividad independiente para formar parte de la conexión continua al espacio digital. Así, en las redes sociales a menudo las noticias no son buscadas deliberadamente, sino que el usuario se encuentra con ellas de manera fortuita y entre otros contenidos sociales y de entretenimiento. El fenómeno de la exposición incidental es una tendencia emergente en el consumo digital, con implicaciones para la comprensión ciudadana de los asuntos públicos y la participación política. Este trabajo ofrece un análisis comparativo de la exposición incidental a noticias de los usuarios digitales de cuatro países de habla hispana, a lo largo de tres plataformas: Facebook, Youtube y Twitter. Se han empleado muestras de Argentina (n=2.003), Chile (n=2.005), España (n=2.006) y México (n=2.003), encuestados en el Digital News Report 2017. Los resultados muestran que a) España es el país con mayor índice de exposición incidental entre los usuarios que utilizan las redes sociales para informarse; b) es una tendencia más frecuente en Facebook y Youtube que en Twitter; y c) la edad, la orientación ideológica y el grado de interés en las noticias influyen en la incidencia de este fenómeno.

"Putting a Face on It analyses and discusses how subjectivity and exposure of individuals now affect most journalistic topics and genres: from politics to sports journalism, from science journalism to journalism about terrorism. Individual exposure and subjectivity affect news and features, photos and front pages, and are at the core of an increasing dialogue with digital media users. One aim of this book is therefore to present some of this variation. Another is to contribute to the discourse about the present state of journalism and where it is heading. Putting a Face on It will appeal to researchers, teachers, students, writers, journalists and other media-interested readers." - "Putting a Face on It drøfter hvordan eksponering av individer og subjektive erfaringer i dag kan prege de fleste journalistiske temaer og områder, fra politikk til sport og fra forskningsjournalistikk til reportasjer om terrorisme.

The rise of digital media has increased the opportunities for individuals to self-select political content online. This development has stimulated empirical research on how people select political information, especially when political beliefs are at stake. In the present paper, we tested a series of theory-derived assumptions about antecedents and consequences of selective exposure to confirmative political information and opinions in the digital arena. We conducted an online survey with German Internet users (N = 897, April 2016) and assessed political attitudes, media use and general beliefs in the context of the so-called "migration crisis". 28% of the participants in our sample reported exposure to a confirmative information environment. They are more likely to hear or read about political opinions on migration and political asylum that are similar to their own compared to cross-cutting content. We found no evidence for the assumption that the technological affordances of the Internet foster this form of selective political exposure. Instead, our analyses indicate that conservatism is a positive predictor of selecting confirmative information environments when it comes to migration and political asylum. We also gathered evidence that this relation is mediated by perceived threat and that selective political exposure is linked to truly false consensus beliefs. Our findings inform supply- and demand-side explanations of selective political exposure online. We discuss the relevance for psychological theories about the motivational underpinnings of selective exposure.

Los resultados de 30 entrevistas en profundidad y 410 encuestas realizadas a periodistas de prensa, radio, televisión, medios digitales y gabinetes de comunicación que ejercen en la Comunidad de Madrid (España) revelan que sigue persiguiéndose el ideal de la objetividad, el contraste informativo como camino a la verdad y la exigencia del respeto a los protagonistas de la información. El disenso sobre el tratamiento de los colectivos desfavorecidos, la acusada presión del anunciante sobre los contenidos y la creciente ideologización y poderosa ascendencia de la política en los medios se destacan también por los profesionales como señas de identidad propias de nuestros días. En este contexto, la independencia, la responsabilidad y la ética personales se consideran cardinales para enfrentar a diario los dilemas deontológicos. ; The results of 30 depth interviews and 410 surveys to journalists from press, radio, television, digital media and communication offices practicing in the Community of Madrid (Spain) show that the ideal of objectivity is still pursued, that the informative contrast remains still the way to get to the truth, and that the information protagonists should be respected. The dissent on the coverage of disadvantaged groups, the strong pressure of the advertising industry and the growing ideological and political influence on the media are also highlighted by the professionals. In this context, independence, responsibility and personal ethics are considered essential to daily confront ethical dilemmas. ; Publicado

Sex Without Friction focuses on Cheang Shu Lea's science fiction porno I.K.U. (2000) as provocation to think through the limitations of social and cultural criticism that is premised on mediation. Directed by Taiwan-born digital nomad Cheang, multimedia film I.K.U . features a gender-morphing human clone, programmed to collect sexual experiences for the future mass production of sex simulation pills. I.K.U . positions viewers as spectators, users, and interceptors in the display and transmission of images and information as we follow the clone's movements through a globally non-descript Tokyo in search of sexual data. The essay is organized into four sections or frames. The first section explores the debate on film's lost specificity in digital media convergence. The second looks at the structure of feeling that shapes postmodern criticism on the dehumanizing aesthetics of postindustrial capitalism. Section three contrasts machinic forms of sexuality with liberal and anti-liberal conceptions of sexuality as an object and technology of social regulation. And the last section questions the presumed alignment between spectator and media apparatus in phenomenological and psychoanalytic approaches to film and video. Each section relies on the multimedia, machinic world of I.K.U . to bring into relief constraints on the notion of mediation under discussion—technological, critical, sexual, or spectatorial. The conclusion argues hyperbolically for the abandonment of reductive economies of cultural visibility aimed merely at rehabilitating the racially and sexually normative human.

Los fondos documentales de tipo sonoro están en peligro de desaparición y pérdida definitiva. Los soporte físicos en los que fueron grabados, cintas magnéticas o discos de vinilo como más usuales, tienen una vida limitada por lo que es necesario realizar un proceso de selección y conversión del formato analógico al digital para garantizar su conservación. Esta necesidad dio origen al proyecto de la Universidad de Alicante Devuélveme la voz al digitalizar la donación de cintas magnéticas donadas a la Universidad para formar un portal sonoro de ayuda a la investigación y conocimiento de la época del franquismo y la transición democrática española. ; The sound repositories are in danger of disappearance and permanent loss. The most usual support on which they were recorded, magnetic tapes or vinyl records, have a limited life. That's why it is necessary to make a selection process and a change from analog to digital media to ensure its preservation. This need created the project of the University of Alicante Devuélveme la Voz in which the tape donation donated to the University to create a sound portal for supporting research and knownledge of the times of Franco and the Spanish Democratic Transition.

Rechte Orientierungen und Diskurse haben eine räumliche Dynamik. Das Problem lediglich in strukturschwachen Regionen, im ländlichen Raum oder in benachteiligten Wohngebieten zu verorten, ist jedoch verkürzt, reproduziert Stereotype und liefert kaum Erklärungen. Denn soziale und räumliche Kontexte bedingen nicht nur Verhalten und Einstellungen, sondern werden gleichermaßen durch individuelle und kollektive Handlungen hervorgebracht und verändert. Die Beitragenden verschiedener Fachdisziplinen untersuchen diese komplexen Zusammenhänge, diskutieren sie mit Expert*innen aus der Praxis und eröffnen dabei neue Handlungsräume.

Purpose: this article includes the review of the Japanese policy on the national economy Digital Transformation, using the case of implementation of artificial intelligence for production and services, description and analysis of the current results, as well as identification of obstacles to achieve the expected results. Methods: the article is based on the analysis of scientific and analytical materials to the problem of research. The factual basis is the framework documents of the Cabinet of Japan, media, reports on research conducted by Japanese research institutes. Results: the article provides a brief review and analysis of the Japanese public policy of the development of AI technology, summarizes the interim results of the measures taken, identifies problematic factors that prevent the achievement of the expected results. The hypothesis is put forward about the insufficiency of government efforts to monitor and analyze the activities already implemented, the lack of practice of taking into account failures in the formation of new programs and projects. Recently, significant attention to the development of AI technology is paid in Russia. In 2019, Russian President Vladimir Putin approved the "National strategy for the development of AI until 2030". It is expected that the using of digital technologies, will increase the competitiveness of the national economy, improve the welfare of society. In this regard, the study of Japan's experience as one of the technological leaders in the development and using of digital transformation, is especially important. Conclusions and Relevance: To solve the current socio-economic problems, Japan government relies on the development of the advanced technologies. At the same time, the government continues to develop measures to stimulate the cooperation of the academic and industrial sectors to conduct joint R&D on priority technologies. However, due to the "closed" nature of Japanese corporations and the relative independence of government plans in determining the technological priorities development, the corporate sector is reluctant to follow government recommendations on the using new technologies in management and production processes, as well as joint projects with the academic sector are not large-scale and are rather formal. This situation indicates the continuing unpreparedness of key NIS participants for the perception of the advanced technologies and digital transformation. ; Цель. Цель данного исследования состоит в рассмотрении японской политики цифровой трансформации национальной экономики на примере разработки и внедрения технологии искусственного интеллекта (далее – ИИ), в анализе текущих результатов такого внедрения, а также выявлении препятствий, мешающих достижению ожидаемых результатов. Методы или методология проведения работы. Работа основана на анализе научных и аналитических материалов, посвященных проблеме исследования. Фактологической базой служат рамочные документы Кабинета министров Японии, публикации СМИ, отчеты японских научно-исследовательских институтов и университетов. Результаты работы. В статье представлены описание и анализ реализуемой японским правительством политики развития технологии ИИ, приведены конкретные примеры научно-исследовательских проектов. Выявлены проблемные области реализуемой политики, препятствующие достижению заданных целей. Выдвинута гипотеза о недостаточности правительственных усилий по мониторингу и анализу уже осуществленных мероприятий и отсутствии практики учета неудач при формировании новых проектов. В последние годы существенное внимание к разработке технологии ИИ уделяется и в России. В 2019 г. Президентом РФ Владимиром Путиным была утверждена «Национальная стратегия развития искусственного интеллекта до 2030 г.». Ожидается, что использование новейших технологий усилит конкурентоспособность национальной экономики и повысит благосостояние жизни общества. В связи с этим изучение опыта Японии, как одного из высокотехнологических лидеров, уже вступивших в глобальное соперничество по внедрению технологии ИИ, особенно важно. Выводы. Для решения текущих социально-экономических проблем правительство Японии делает основную ставку на развитие и применение новейших технологий. Параллельно с этим руководство государства продолжает выработку мер по стимулированию взаимодействия академического и промышленного секторов на проведение совместных исследовательских работ (далее – ИР) по приоритетным технологиям. Однако, ввиду характерной для японских корпораций «закрытости» и относительной независимости от государственных планов при определении приоритетов технологического развития, корпоративный сектор неохотно откликается на правительственные рекомендации по внедрению новейших технологий в управленческие и производственные процессы, а совместные с академическим сектором проекты не являются крупными по масштабам ИР и носят скорее формальный характер. Подобное положение дел указывает на сохраняющуюся неподготовленность ключевых участников национальной инновационной системы (далее – НИС) к восприятию новейших технологий и цифровой трансформации.
