Jamie Slater is a former comedian who now voices Waldo, a cartoon character that interviews and humiliates people on a satirical TV program. The producer, Jack Napier, decides to make Waldo a candidate for local office to boost ratings. This devastates Jamie but reveals potential in politics. The document argues that media, technology, satire and entertainment can manipulate politics and discussions, trivializing issues and spreading nihilism. While new technologies can increase civic participation, they also encourage entertainment-focused and emotional perspectives that blur private and public discourse. This risks replacing reasoned debate with amusing but empty criticism.

Black Mirror 1.3. "The Entire History of You"
Technology is closely related to very popular and positive imaginaries (Progress, Modernity, Science). This is why we tend to consider technology a good thing or, at least, a neutral thing.
Nevertheless, there have been numerous critiques of technology in several fields.
As we can watch in BM 1.3, we use lots of technologies which invite us to measure others as the result of their own visible actions, without paying attention to the fact that they are happening now as impossible selves.
Any discourse that attempts to reduce us to a completely enlightened explanation (naturalism, nietzschean or moralist accounts) fails and reveals us as impossible selves.
Black Mirror 1.2. "15 Million Merits"
We are only the co-authors of our own narrative selves. Nevertheless, there are many authors (i.e. Foucault) who defend that we don’t participate at all in the construction of this narrative and that we are merely the result of a tale told by others.
Black Mirror 1.2 helps us to understand this theoretical choice which defends the fact that our selves are completely molded by power.
Black Mirror 1.1. National Anthem
TV-Narcissism is a soft sort of metafiction which simply consist of telling a story about the journalistic world or about a world where audiovisual products (TV, cameras, smart-phones, etc.) are elaborated.
We can see how the narratives that we usually consume as true are constructed.
Black Mirror is a perfect example of TV-Narcissism
Black Mirror 2.2. "White Bear"
The screen, the Black Mirror, is performative because it is capable of modifying the behavior of the people related to the reality show.
Post-modern spectators discover themselves identifying with the unaware techno-zombies. They have been behaving like plain techno-zombies.
But technologies cannot only modify the way in which we look at reality, they can also privilege certain ideas or insights about the way to evaluate reality.
BM 2.2 lets us see how technologies can modify the perception we have about abstract concepts like justice, guilt and punishment.
Black Mirror
Black Mirror is a British TV anthology that explores dystopian futures where emerging technologies have negative consequences. The show is set in a hyper-realistic world similar to the present but with concerning technological developments. Episodes depict societies where individuals are constantly monitored, identity is curated online, and media saturation limits meaningful experiences. Charlie Brooker uses the show to start conversations about protecting individual freedoms and shaping technologies responsibly as society becomes increasingly digital.
Black mirror analysis
This document provides discussion questions and analysis about the Black Mirror episode "15 Million Merits". It asks the reader to consider how the episode is postmodern in its features, and how it can be analyzed through the theories of Baudrillard and Foucault regarding hyperreality, panopticism, and voyeurism. It also prompts comparison to other media and exploration of the intended audience and impact. Key technologies and media explored in the episode are reality television, social media, surveillance, and the influence of media. Students are assigned to analyze another Black Mirror episode using similar frameworks.
Hypodermic syringe model[1]
The hypodermic syringe model suggests that audiences passively accept messages injected by the media, and that this directly correlates to anti-social behavior. Research by Bandura found children imitated aggressive behaviors they saw acted out. This supported the model by indicating media violence can lead to copycat violence. However, the model has been criticized for oversimplifying audiences and failing to see them as sophisticated media consumers.
The Mean World Syndrome
This document discusses how violence in news media can cultivate perceptions of the world as mean and scary in heavy viewers. It analyzes research showing news frequently emphasizes crime and violence more than actual rates. Studies found media exposure accounts for children's knowledge of violence even in low-crime areas. Heavy viewing is linked to outcomes like "mean world syndrome," defined as seeing the world as exceedingly dangerous. While tragic events receive coverage, this focus on violence and fear may fuel disproportionate public panic out of line with actual risks and realities.

Theories
This document summarizes several key media theories and theorists. It covers semiotics, narratology, genre theory, structuralism, postmodernism, representation, identity, gender, ethnicity, media industries, audiences, and fandom. Some of the main ideas discussed include Barthes' concept of signs, Todorov's narrative patterns, Neale's views on genre as process, Levi-Strauss' structuralism, Baudrillard's ideas of simulation and hyperreality, Hall's work on representation, Butler's gender performativity, and Jenkins' concept of fans and participatory culture.
Medium is the message marshall mc luhan
The document discusses Marshall McLuhan's concept that "the medium is the message." It provides explanations of three key concepts from McLuhan's work: medium, content, and etherealization. It also includes quotes from McLuhan and analyzes the significance of the #MeToo hashtag and movement as an example artifact. The document aims to help students understand McLuhan's influential ideas about how the channels of communication themselves can shape society and human interaction.
Cultivation theory
This document discusses cultivation theory, which proposes that heavy television viewing can influence viewers' perceptions of reality. It presents the theory's key arguments, including that extensive TV watching over time can gradually shape viewers' beliefs through first and second-order effects. Heavy viewers may see the world as more violent and fear-inducing than it really is. However, attitudes can also be shaped by other media, personal experiences, and social influences. The document examines applications and critiques of cultivation theory.
Modelling or Copycat Theory
The document discusses the concept of the "copycat effect" where sensational media portrayals of violence can result in imitation crimes. While some point to media like films as directly influencing criminal behavior, research suggests the effect is more indirect. For those who do commit copycat crimes, many already had prior criminal histories or mental health issues. Therefore, the media likely affects pre-existing criminal tendencies rather than creating new criminals. The document also notes that parents' concerns about media influencing children's behavior are difficult to prove, and any short-term behavioral changes may not persist into adulthood.
Cultivation theory ppt
Cultivation Theory examines the long-term effects of television on viewers' perceptions of social reality. It suggests that the more time people spend watching television, the more likely they are to believe social reality reflects what is portrayed on television. However, critics argue it is too simplistic and does not analyze television's potential positive effects or account for other social influences.
SociologyExchange.co.uk Shared Resource
This document discusses key concepts in media sociology including definitions of different types of media, technological developments, effects on audiences, and issues of representation. It covers how the media contributes to socialization through subtly reinforcing gender roles and political views. It also examines debates around media influence, including whether violence in media causes real-world effects, and the extent of press owner control over content. Sample exam questions are provided at the end.
Technological Determinism
McLuhan was a media theorist who believed that media are extensions of human senses and faculties. His most famous work explored how the characteristics of different media shape society. Technological determinism asserts that a society's technology drives cultural and social changes. The movie Inception depicts dreams as extensions of the subconscious mind. Advanced technology allows people to share and explore dreams on deeper levels. Totems help distinguish reality from dreams, while projections are extensions of the subconscious that respond violently if threatened. The film shows how technology can be used to overcome limitations like death but may also risk becoming trapped in endless dreams.
Collective identity
This document discusses various theories related to media influence and representation, including cultivation theory, cultural effects theory, pluralism, and representation. It also covers concepts like ideology, hegemony, mediation, moral panics, stereotypes, implicit personality theory, social categorization, and countertypes. Several theorists are mentioned who contributed to understanding these concepts, such as Gerbner, Althusser, and Dyer.
Cultivation theory
This document discusses George Gerbner's cultivation theory, which proposes that heavy television viewing can influence viewers' perceptions of social reality. It presents Gerbner's three-pronged research strategy of institutional process analysis, message system analysis, and cultivation analysis. Cultivation analysis examines whether heavy viewers are more likely to perceive social reality as reflected in common television messages and portrayals. The document also discusses key concepts like mainstreaming and reviews international studies and recent findings on how television viewing can cultivate beliefs around topics like crime, health, politics, and gender roles.
ITFT_Media_Cultivation theory
Cultivation Theory examines the long-term effects of television exposure on viewers' perceptions of social reality. Developed by George Gerbner in the late 1960s, it suggests that the more time people spend watching television, the more likely they are to believe the portrayals of social reality on television. Gerbner's research found that heavy television viewers perceived the world as a more dangerous place than light viewers, with higher estimated risks of criminal victimization, perceived police activity, and general mistrust of people. The theory posits that extensive television viewing can "cultivate" perspectives among viewers that align with the frequently dramatized portrayals on television.

Framing Theory By Dilawar Dar
Erving Goffman was a highly influential Canadian-American sociologist known for his studies of everyday social interactions and symbolic meaning. His most famous work was Frame Analysis (1974) which introduced the concept of "framing" to describe how people interpret situations based on social expectations and cues. According to framing theory, people make sense of situations through mental frameworks or "frames" informed by past experiences and media messages. These frames can be resistant to change and arouse strong emotions. Framing theory provides insights into how social interactions and media representations reinforce societal norms and power structures through subtle cues.
Cultivation Theory
The document summarizes Cultivation Theory, which was developed by Professor George Gerbner to analyze the long-term effects of television viewing. Some key points:
- Cultivation Theory predicts that heavy television viewing shapes peoples' perceptions of the real world by cultivating exaggerated beliefs, such as that the world is a more violent place.
- Studies found heavy viewers overestimated statistics like crime rates compared to light viewers. This supported the theory's key concept of a "Mean World Syndrome" from extensive television exposure.
- The theory was later modified to include the concepts of "Mainstreaming," where heavy viewing converges viewpoints across groups, and "Resonance," where effects are stronger for vulnerable populations.

Media ‘Effects’ Debates
This document discusses media effects debates around regulation, classification, and censorship of media. It outlines three perspectives in the debate - those who articulate concerns without evidence, researchers who study media effects, and media consumers like children. The key distinction is drawn between regulation, classification, and censorship. Psychological and sociological approaches to media effects are also discussed, as well as how effects on individuals can impact society. Classic effect theories are outlined along with criticisms of effects-focused approaches.
Cultivation theory
According to cultivation theory, heavy television viewers are more likely to perceive social reality as portrayed on television. The theory proposes that extensive television exposure can influence viewers' beliefs about the world, such as exaggerating the prevalence of violence and danger. Cultivation analysis examines the long-term effects of repetitive television content on viewers' conceptions of social reality.
Desensitisation theory
The document discusses the theory of desensitization, where repeated exposure to violence in media can decrease audiences' sensitivity over time. It provides examples of how horror movies have become increasingly graphic, and events like the Columbine shooting intensified debates around media influences. While over-exposure may make people accustomed to fictional violence, real-life impacts are still possible, like mimicking acts seen. The theory is somewhat similar to the hypodermic needle model of direct media effects, but research also shows moderated links between media violence and real aggression.
Cultivation Theory -ZK
Cultivation Theory is a social theory developed by George Gerbner that examines the long-term effects of television on viewers. The theory's primary proposition is that heavy television viewers are more likely to see the real world in ways that reflect common portrayals in television. Heavy viewers who watch more than 4 hours of TV per day will be more influenced in their perceptions of reality than light viewers who watch less than 4 hours. Cultivation Theory suggests that heavy, long-term exposure to television can impact viewers' beliefs about crime rates, gender roles, and levels of distrust in society.
Cultivation theory and Priming theory
The document discusses two social media theories: Cultivation Theory and Priming Theory. Cultivation Theory proposes that heavy television exposure shapes peoples' perceptions of social reality over time. Priming Theory suggests that media provides frames of reference that influence how audiences interpret subsequent messages. The document also provides examples and critiques of each theory, noting limitations such as not considering meaning across different media genres and audiences' perspectives.
Technological determinism theory powerpoint
Technological determinism is a theory that technology drives social and cultural change in predictable ways. It argues that (1) technology develops along an inevitable path independent of human influence, and (2) the introduction of new technologies causes inherent social effects as societies reorganize around the new technologies. Individual interpretations vary but share the ideas that technology determines history and progress through its innovations, which societies cannot control and must adapt to.
Mobile Phones in a Crisis - Dave Levy
Mobile phones may not be the best way to disseminate information during a crisis. The cell network is already stressed under normal conditions and will become overloaded during an emergency. When a crisis occurs, people's priority is often to share information with their social networks on mobile phones rather than receiving official communications. Instead of pushing messages to audiences, organizations should listen to how the crisis is being discussed on mobile devices and social media and provide information that addresses people's actual needs. Mobile technology provides opportunities for two-way communication that can help response efforts.
Black Mirror: Be Right Back // Analysis
This document provides discussion points about the Black Mirror episode "Be Right Back". It asks how the episode is postmodern and relates to theories by Baudrillard and Foucault. It also asks how the episode differs from or challenges other media, how the audience and impact is similar to other platforms, and what technologies and media are explored.

Role Of Media In Shaping Public Opinion
The document discusses the role of media in shaping public opinion on various social and political issues. It states that media plays a crucial role in influencing what issues the public thinks about and how they think about them. By deciding what to report on and how to frame these issues, media can impact public discourse and priorities. Both cultivation theory and agenda-setting theory suggest that media influences perceptions by deciding what information to disseminate and how to present it. While media has the potential to shape opinions, its effects depend on how aware and responsible journalists are.
Democracy_in_a_Network_Society.pptx
This document discusses the promises and realities of digital democracy. It addresses 4 promises made in the 1980s-1990s about how digital media could enhance political information sharing, debate, media participation, and decision making. While some promises have been partially fulfilled like improved information access, most have not led to institutional changes. The document analyzes why expectations were too high, focusing on pitfalls like assuming technology causes total revolution, social continuity, or can technically fix complex problems. In conclusion, digital media have modestly helped participation but not transformed political systems yet. Their long term impact remains uncertain and will likely differ from current expectations.
Mediatisation of Politics (lisbon)
This document discusses the changing relationship between politics, journalism, and citizens in an era of networked communication. It notes that political reporting is now faster, more saturated, and disintermediated as journalists, politicians, and citizens are directly networked. This mediatization of politics can undermine truth, politicize civil servants, and lead policy to follow media agendas. Both journalists and politicians struggle with issues like spin, lack of attention, and cynicism. New media gives citizens more direct voice but can also fragment discussion and spread misinformation. The role of journalists is to filter information for citizens while upholding traditional watchdog functions, but the real challenge is how to engage public attention on issues like climate change in this new environment.

30 years of democracy in Argentina
The document discusses cultural changes that have occurred in Argentina over the past 30 years since the return to democracy in 1983 after decades of military dictatorship. It notes that democracy, while imperfect, has brought revolutionary cultural changes to Argentina, including greater freedoms of expression in the arts. Television viewership has declined significantly as more diverse media like cable and digital technologies have proliferated. Younger generations are less influenced by television and more engaged with the online world. Overall, Argentine culture has become more open and democratic.
CUR essay 2
The social capital and civic engagement in the United States has been declining since the 1950s as younger generations have become more focused on individualism and less involved in their communities. Technology and social media use has increased dramatically and some argue this contributes to declines in social and political engagement as people interact face-to-face less. While new technologies provide opportunities for political information and organizing, they can also distract people and political decisions are sometimes based on superficial factors rather than issues. Scholars debate the causes and consequences of declining social capital for democracy.
Pol l info in a demy
This document discusses the role of the media in a democracy. It examines different types of media like television, radio, newspapers, and social media. It explores how politicians use media to influence voters through staged events, photos, social media, and by claiming bias. The document also analyzes theories about the power of media, including the hypodermic needle theory, uses and gratifications theory, and cultural effects theory. Finally, it discusses the rights and responsibilities of media to inform voters and hold leaders accountable, as well as arguments for and against greater government regulation of media.
Democracies in Crisis
This document discusses political participation and trends in democracies. It notes that while voting is crucial, there are also unconventional forms of participation like protests. Recent trends show declines in voting and trust in political institutions. However, this civic malaise may not signify that democracies are in crisis. Democracies are adapting to changing interests and ways citizens get informed and participate, through new forms like interest groups and media. Overall, democracies may be revitalizing rather than declining.
Lim JUS394 Utopian Dystopian
The document discusses utopian and dystopian visions of technology and provides examples of narratives around different technologies throughout history. Utopian narratives see technology as able to better lives by increasing order and solving problems, while dystopian narratives view technology as facilitating a harsh social order where people have less freedom. The document also notes that technologies are socially constructed and do not determine society but rather reflect existing social and political factors.
Williamson Keynote
The document discusses how digital technologies can help re-engage citizens in democracy by reducing barriers to participation, but that there are also challenges to consider, such as lack of skills, access, and motivation. It argues that partnerships between government and civil society are needed to realize the transformative potential of digital media and bring citizens back to the center of democracy.

Read about the event here: http://roadtolorien.kyopol.net/digital-networks-and-local-participation/Networked Politics and Journalism 2015
This is a lecture given to visiting GWU students to introduce them to the political media landscape of the UK in the run up to the 2015 General Election. It shows how journalism has become networked as has political communication. It discusses whether this has improved the quality of political debate.
The Role of Communication in Building Democracy
The keynote address discusses the important role of communication and media in building and strengthening democracy. It argues that a democracy cannot exist without a viable media to keep citizens informed and hold politicians and government accountable. The media acts as a watchdog to uncover corruption, ensure politicians fulfill promises, and allow governments to address issues. It also plays a role in mobilizing citizens and building social consensus. However, the media must have the proper skills, independence, and environment to fulfill these roles in a democracy. The address praises the Timex School of Communication for providing training to develop media professionals able to strengthen democracy.

Social interaction within 10 years will likely be significantly impacted by advancing technology. Throughout history, technology has catalyzed cultural, social, and economic evolution, from painted caves to the internet. Politicians have also adapted to technological changes, initially communicating through newspapers and rallies but now using tools like websites, social media, online videos, and data analytics to engage with constituents virtually at all times. As new technologies continue to emerge and evolve over the next decade, they may further transform how politics is practiced and human interaction is conceived, through innovations like virtual holograms, personalized digital assistants, and advanced data analytics.
Apple 8 Social Media and Political Action
The document discusses how social media can impact political action and democracy. It argues that while social media can enhance freedom of speech and mobilization, it can also depoliticize political communication and dampen real-world action. When online participation provides satisfaction that reduces willingness to interact in the real world, and when messages are valued just for circulation rather than response or action, social media can displace real political engagement. However, social media could also empower people when combined with in-person organizing focused on local communities.

Black mirror más allá del entretenimiento
Black Mirror es una miniserie británica que utiliza la estrategia literaria de la metaficción y la ironía para hacer una crítica social a través del entretenimiento. Explora temas como la ciencia, la tecnología y la deshumanización a través de historias distópicas pero cercanas a la realidad. Algunos episodios muestran estrategias de deshumanización como "monstruosidad", bloqueo de la individualidad o la reducción de lo humano a datos. Aunque plantea escenarios sombríos, la serie busca generar reflex
Evoluciones y aplicaciones del zombi contemporáneo
Este documento describe la evolución y aplicaciones del zombi contemporáneo en la literatura, el cine y la filosofía. Se analiza el zombi como una representación de esclavos en el folklore haitiano, y cómo ha sido utilizado para criticar alienación política, crisis económicas, exclusión de minorías e inmigración. Más recientemente, el zombi ha servido para parodiar la cultura mediática y criticar la clase media, adquiriendo cada vez más capacidades humanas.
La liberación de la mujer en Bron/Broen, The Killing, The Fall y The Good Wife
En las teleseries actuales encontramos abundantes modelos de antiheroínas que representan un modo radical de emancipación de la mujer muy ligado a comportamientos estrictamente individualistas tradicionalmente asociados a los hombres tanto en lo laboral como en lo sentimental. Ejemplo de esto lo encontramos en teleseries como Bron/Broen, The Killing y The Fall. Pese a que en The Good Wife parece que la protagonista encarne un modelo más conservador de la liberación de la mujer, según el cual habría que tener en cuenta los vínculos a la hora de ejercerla, en la quinta temporada nos encontramos con que The Good Wife es la nueva Hilary Clinton y con que encarna una liberación tan individualista como las anteriores.
Los lenguajes más sutiles.
Los “lenguajes más sutiles” son un intento artístico de mantener el ideal de la autenticidad teniendo en cuenta todos los elementos de su definición [formales y materiales] y esta especial condición posmoderna según la cual el elemento de contenido o material deber ser verificado por la propia experiencia y no puede ser aceptado ideológicamente.
El hombre máquina y su virtualización
Las transformaciones provocadas por la tecnología en las ideas e imágenes que tenemos acerca de lo humano son ostensibles. En este mínimo seminario vamos a intentar detallar, a través del comentario de los episodios 2.1 y 2.2 de la miniserie británica "Black Mirror", qué tipo de mutaciones antropológicas se han producido a este respecto en nuestra cultura posmoderna, donde el reinado de los media parece haberle dado nuevos significados a la, ya clásica en la modernidad, metáfora del hombre máquina.
Fenomenología de la ética de narciso a través del cine posmoderno
Son muchos los autores que han definido nuestra moral como narcisista. Sociólogos como Lipovetsky o Lasch, filósofos como Allan Bloom o Charles Taylor, o psiquiatras como Tony Anatrella o Claudio Risé, estarían de acuerdo en que el hombre de nuestros días se tiende a considerar o confundir a sí mismo con su propio ideal. Esta convicción va ligada a toda una constelación de conductas que pùeden ser relacionadas con dicho narcisismo y que aparecen profusamente retratadas en el cine contemporáneo. En esta presentación se intenta mostrar la lógica interna de una supuesta ética del Narciso, que en ningún momento se reivindica teóricamente, a partir del comentario de numerosas películas de cine de los ochenta, noventa y de nuestro siglo XXI. Todo ello se hace siguiendo la segunda parte del libro Celuloide posmoderno.
Fenomenología de la ética de narciso
La autenticidad es el ideal moral de la modernidad según Charles Taylor. Se trata de un ideal válido pero que ha sido reducido en su semántica a algo mucho más chato de lo que originalmente es. Nuestra cultura tiende a malinterpretarlo como mero narcisismo, que se convierte en el horizonte moral mayoritario en nuestro días. Con este tema se pretende hacer emerger el conjunto de conductas que están ligadas al narcisismo y cómo forman un corpus ético que muchas veces vivimos acríticamente y que es el responsable de numerosos malestares sociales y psicológicos.
El ideal moral moderno
El documento discute la naturaleza de la moral en la sociedad moderna. Sugiere que la moral se ha vuelto más subjetiva y relativista, alejándose de una ética objetiva basada en la virtud. También explora las fuentes del yo y la identidad moral, argumentando que están influenciadas por factores sociales, culturales y narrativos más que por verdades absolutas.
Qué es un ser humano (jml)
El documento presenta 27 definiciones del ser humano extraídas de distintas fuentes a lo largo de la historia. Estas definiciones describen al humano como una imagen de Dios, un animal racional que razona y utiliza herramientas, un ser político con deseos infinitos y conciencia de sí mismo, y como una contradicción entre polos opuestos como animal y divino, dependiente y libre.
Me identifico con psicópatas: ¿qué me pasa Doctor?
Son muchos los anti-héroes en la 3ª Edad de Oro de la Televisión. De hecho, este tipo de personajes protagonistas son tremendamente populares en la ficción posmoderna. Son personajes ambivalentes, borderline, ambiguos moralmente, que incluso en ocasiones bordean la locura o la psicopatía. Sin embargo, el antihéroe siempre ha sido alguien con quien el espectador puede identificarse y comprometerse hasta un cierto punto. Lo vemos, por ejemplo, en Dexter, donde el protagonista, pese a ser un asesino en serie, es justificado a los ojos del espectador por el hecho de ser un vengador de la sociedad y cumplir por tanto con una cierta misión como justiciero. Sin embargo, en los últimos tiempos están apareciendo series de televisión donde se da un paso más allá a este respecto. El psicópata antihéroe se convierte en psicópata villano tanto en Hannibal como en House of Cards, aunque sin dejar de ser el protagonista y sin dejar de buscar la identificación con el espectador. ¿Cómo explicar este fenómeno?
Anthropology Of The Infected In The Walking Dead
The document discusses themes from the TV series The Walking Dead, including:
1) It analyzes how the infected survivor characters in the show experience both an internal illness and external apocalyptic world, tending to dehumanize themselves in order to survive.
2) However, the characters also sometimes embody an "impossible humanhood" through moments of feeling.
3) These moments help explain humanhood despite the characters' infected conditions, either through education/openness as seen in a example scene, or because being human is an "impossible event that happens."
On Social Imaginaries: the New Post-Modern Cultural Order
If there is a dumb meta-narrative acting as the framework of our experiences, actions, and life, then we need a more detailed theoretical explanation of how capitalism provides us with social cohesion.
One attempt at this explanation is developed in the Theory of Social Imaginaries by contemporary thinkers such as Gilbert Durand, Michel Maffesoli, Cornelius Castoriadis, and Charles Taylor.
Post Modernity and the Self 2
Perhaps there is still a worldwide accepted metanarrative which tends to hide its condition as a metanarrative, disguising itself as a neutral characteristic of the general reality.
This hidden metanarrative could be seen as capitalism with all of its attributes (entertainment, consumerism, technologies…).
Capitalism would be a metanarrative that doesn’t give a rational explanation or take our human experiences into account. We would be able to detect this fact in two different points:
1.To maximize our personal benefit or our well-being doesn’t necessarily coincide with happiness in our experience.
2.To rely on the Adam Smith’s equation according which our private selfishness should be necessarily our best contribution to the common good.
Post-Modernity and The Self
In his book The Postmodern Condition: A Report on Knowledge (1993), J.F. Lyotard announces a change in the way in which we manage our meanings in Western Culture societies. He points out that all of our metanarratives have fallen in postmodernity because there is an active and continuous process of incredulity towards them.
Our recent history shows how ideologies (and religions) can lead us to war and destruction.
Our society seems to be more pragmatic and scientific in this regard.
Our narrative skills are developed socially, but we need to depart from certain cultural hypotheses in order to make meaning. These hypotheses are included in the metanarrative that we have inherited from our parents, family or “defining communities” (Charles Taylor, Sources of the Self, 1989).
This inheritance still exists, but:
1.Our “defining communities” tend not to have a strong and sharp narrative to pass on to their offspring.
2.Our society doesn’t share a clear and stable metanarrative from which everyone can judge his own life and experience.
3.It has become desirable culturally speaking (after the hippies, May 68, the Punks, the Spanish Movida, etc.) to rebel against parents, established social values, etc. this has been demonstrated in the book The Conquest of Cool: Business Culture, Counterculture, and the Rise of Hip Consumerism (Thomas Frank, 1997) and La Revolución Divertida (Ramón González Férriz, 2012)
The Evolution of the Idea of Humanhood 4
The document discusses the differences between the human and animal experience of self. It argues that while humans and animals may share a "minimal self" based on subjective experience, humans possess a more complex "narrative self" that incorporates self-awareness, morality, intelligence, language, social aspects, and a historical perspective not found in other animals. This bundle of intertwined characteristics in human experience suggests a "transcendental self" that naturalist explanations cannot fully account for. The document concludes that human dignity and rights may be grounded not just in human constructs but in humans' unique natural capacity for self-awareness and justice.
The Evolution of the Idea of Humanhood 3
This document discusses contemporary approaches to the self. It summarizes that the self is not a fixed thing according to naturalism and Hume, but is also not purely determined by external forces. A phenomenological approach views the self as a pre-reflective feature of experience rather than an object. The narrative self is a cultural construction but still real. An hermeneutical approach sees identity as co-authored within social and historical contexts rather than fully known or described. The document concludes that there is a minimal self and an extended narrative self, with the latter built upon the former, converging with neuroscientific accounts of core and extended consciousness. This allows defending experience of self without reducing it to cultural design.
Our TV-Series
Charlie Brooker is a British creator known for his self-aware postmodern narratives about the effects of new technologies on human behavior, such as in his shows Dead Set, How TV Ruined Your Life, and Black Mirror. Black Mirror uses metafiction to draw attention to its status as an artifact and question the relationship between fiction and reality. While each episode of Black Mirror has a different plot, they all examine how technologies are changing modern life. The first episode, "National Anthem," explores themes of public opinion, new technologies, spectacle, narcissism, and artwork in the context of freedom versus manipulation and human dignity versus entertainment.
The Evolution of the Idea of the Humanhood 2
This document discusses the naturalization of the soul from ancient Greek philosophy to modern theories. It summarizes three ancient Greek views: Plato's view of an immortal soul in an ideal realm, Aristotle's view of a changeless dimension within material objects, and the atomists' view of temporary configurations of atoms. It notes that today most accept a materialist view and naturalization of the soul. It raises questions about whether science can fully explain personal identity and persistence. It discusses challenges of ensuring stability of personal identity and outlines the history of naturalizing the soul from Descartes to modern philosophers who argue selves may not ultimately exist or are real brain activities rather than souls.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

- 1. Professor: Jorge Martínez Lucena
- 2. Jamie Slater is a former comedian who is now providing the voice to Waldo, a cartoon that interviews and humiliates people in a satiricTV program. Jack Napier is the producer of the program and decide to convert Waldo into a candidate for local MP in order to get a larger audience.The experiment becomes devastating for Jamie Slater but reveals a huge potential in the political field.Thereby, we see how media, technology, satire and entertainment can become tools of social and political manipulation. Synopsis
- 3. To reduce politics to TV and spectacle implies adopting the logic of entertainment and therefore, falling into trivialization. “I do not mean to imply that television news deliberately aims to deprive Americans of a coherent, contextual understanding of their world. I mean to say that when news is packaged as entertainment, that is the inevitable result. And in saying that the television news show entertains but does not inform, I am saying something far more serious than that we are being deprived of authentic information. I am saying we are losing our sense of what it means to be well informed.” (Postman, Amusing Ourselves to Death: Public Discourse in the Age of Show Business, 2006 : 107-108) Politics and Entertainment
- 4. • True democratic politics are the anti- politics, which consist of criticizing politicians without making a constructive proposal, converting politicians and bankers into the scapegoats whose spectacular satire or imaginary sacrifice provide the audience with the cathartic feeling of doing the fair thing (Indignados, Wall Street Occupy, etc.) • Indignation fades away into laughter and doesn’t find any constructive chance to engage.Thereby, the protest seems to remain sterile. Politics and Its Critiques
- 5. The internet and the social networks favor a higher civic participation in political life. BUT, at the same time, they also favor an entertaining, outraged and trivialized perspective on politics, which blurs the borders between public (rational) and private (affective), making room for sentimental discourse in the heart of politics. Therefore, this higher technological participation can also result in a more or less unaware lower realism and the use of reasoning in the political sphere. Democracy andTechnology
- 6. Technology seems to spread the contrary of what it is promising: “To be unaware that a technology comes equipped with a program for social change, to maintain that technology is neutral, to make the assumption that technology is always a friend to culture is, at this late hour, stupidity plain and simple.” (Postman, 2006: 157) Total information associated with our new technologies doesn’t seem to be more than a myth (the myth of progress) that wouldn’t survive our rational inspection. Nihilism andTechnology
- 7. • New technologies seem to be a fitting tool for democracy. However, they attack democracy as well, because they trivializs politics (supposed transparency, entertainment and indignation) and spread nihilism (the idea according to which there is nothing beyond appearance) through entertainment and satire. • If the public square is torn apart and amusing nihilism spreads, democracy converts into a mere method of government which is managed by those who dominate media.The question here is: who is the real Waldo’s stagehand? • Therefore technology, when is managed by the before mentioned logics (transparency, entertainment and indignation), can be a lens through which the public can see anti-democratic facts as democratic ones and vice versa. Power andTechnology
- 8. • Question 1: In a democracy 2.0, i.e. in a world where people could vote directly on every political decision without the intervention of politicians thank to technological resources like the internet, would there be real democracy? • Question 2: We tend to associate democracy with new technologies, transparency, progress, the freedom to criticize, etc. After what we have learnt watching this episode, does it still seem obvious that we can solve the political problems inherent to democracy using this same democracy? Overdemocratization?
