Lee Rainie, director of the Pew Internet Project, will describe the new media ecology and how “networked individuals” get, share and create information. This new environment has disrupted the old models of public relations and requires a new understanding of how information is passed through social media and networks and how influence is reconfigured when everyone is a publisher and a broadcaster.

4. Rewind: Technology & Control The new tech Smaller, faster, better? The cult of the amateur This is not a new process. Remember video cameras? Amateur vs. professional And the infinite stages in-between The time of control Amateur captured events – Professionally determined content. Editorial control. The time of freedom? Independent, local, globalised, individualised. The time of convergence? The constant feedback loops between amateurs & professionals. Sofia Gkiousou www.digital-era.org
5. Convergence Technology Smaller, faster, better? Ownership Concentration vs. dispersion Convergence as a process From the global to the local and vice-versa. From the determined by the ‘other’ to the appropriated and remixed. Sofia Gkiousou www.digital-era.org
6. Social Networks & the ‘who’ are you Durkheim’s anomie Traditional relationships are dissolved – loss of social integration Granovetter’s ties Strong and weak ties Open and closed networks Goffman’s performativity Playing out roles Roles our self-validated and self-policed. Rules emerge. Foucault’s discipline theory The Panopticon The Internalised Panopticon Sofia Gkiousou www.digital-era.org
7. All hail the webz Sofia Gkiousou www.digital-era.org
8. The Hive Levy’s collective intelligence Large-scale information gathering and processing activities that have emerged in web communities. Harnessing individual expertise towards shared goals & objectives. ‘ No one knows everything, everyone knows something, all knowledge resides in humanity’ (P. Levy, 1997) Sofia Gkiousou www.digital-era.org
9. Digital Culture PARTICIPATION Professional AND amateur Open source AND copyrighted Feedback loops AND passive audiences REMEDIATION Bolter and Grusin (1999): every new medium diverges from yet also reproduces older media, whereas old media refashion themselves to answer the challenges of new media. How do you attribute value? BRICOLAGE Borrowing, hybridity, mixture, plagiarism. The never ending draft. Baudrillard’s “second-hand truth, objectivity and authenticity” Sofia Gkiousou www.digital-era.org

13. And what do you do? You catch the flu. Viral : Spreads similarly to a virus from host to host Marketing technique which uses a pre-existing social network to increase brand awareness. The process is self- replicating, reminiscent of the spread of computer or pathological viruses. Viral marketing works well with the Long Tail model Can you really control a viral campaign? Sofia Gkiousou www.digital-era.org
14. How do you research connections & online life? Three models “ filter model” of CMC (Sproull & Kiesler, 1985) Technological or engineering features of e-mail and other forms of computer-based communications. “ social science” perspective of the Internet (Spears et al. 2002) Assumes instead that personal goals and needs are the sole determinant of the Internet’s effects. Interactions – goals – social context ( Bargh 2002, McKenna & Bargh 2000, Spears et al. 2002) Focusing on the interaction between features of the Internet communication setting and the particular goals and needs of the communicators, as well as the social context of the interaction setting Sofia Gkiousou www.digital-era.org

Models on the effects of the internet on interpersonal interaction: (p. 577 – 578) Sproull & Kiesler’s (1985) “filter model” of CMC which focuses on the technological or engineering features of e-mail and other forms of computer-based communications. According to this perspective, CMC limits the “bandwidth” of social communication, compared to traditional face-to-face communication settings (…)the reduction of available social cues resulting in a greater sense or feeling of anonymity. Spears et al. (2002) contrasted the engineering model with the “social science” perspective on the Internet assumes instead that personal goals and needs are the sole determinant of its effects. According to this viewpoint, the particular purposes of the individuals within the communication setting determine the outcome of the interaction, regardless of the particular features of the communication channel in which the interaction takes place The third and most recent approach has been to focus on the interaction between features of the Internet communication setting and the particular goals and needs of the communicators, as well as the social context of the interaction setting (see Bargh 2002, McKenna & Bargh 2000, Spears et al. 2002). According to this perspective, the special qualities of Internet social interaction do have an impact on the interaction and its outcomes, but this effect can be quite different depending on the social context As quoted in: Bargh, John A; McKenna, Katelyn Y.
