jst oob //数字媒体,政治,传播  

教授. 蒂姆赛博  

太9:25-10:40 //杜克大学102  

 课程描述:  

“Digital media” is a phrase much used in contemporary 文化 and political analysis. 它不同地指的是使用计算机来制作, 交付, and view media; the role of social networking in moving ideas, 信息, and culture from place to place; the creation of visual and other objects that can only exist in networked, 电子机器. This course will slice through these contradictory ideas by looking at the role of digital media in contemporary 政治 and communication. 这学期我们有一个独特的时刻:随着课程的进展, 至少前11周是这样, we will also be living through a Presidential election – perhaps the only one any of you will have the opportunity to participate in while at college. So, 以当代选举政治作为测试案例, we will think about how social and other on-line media influence how ideas move from person to person and place to place. 什么样的人可以在数字空间里说话, 以及博客的格式如何, 评论区, 新闻聚合器, meme的, 的deepfake, 而其他形式的网络信息共享也改变了人们的说法?  

为什么这次选举既是政治事件又是媒体事件? 政治可以匿名化是什么意思? 运用政治理论的见解, 传播与媒体分析, 基于种族和阶级的批判, 还有网络研究, we will eng年龄 in a collaborative project of understanding the Presidential election to test our own and other’s assumptions about the ways that media, 政治, 沟通是相互联系和相互作用的.
