Metabasis - Transkriptionen zwischen Literaturen, Künsten und Medien

Welche Macht hat das Publikum? Kann die scheinbar simple Geste des Klatschens mehr sein als ein hohles Ritual? Und gibt es im Internet überhaupt noch ein 'klatschendes Publikum'? Judith Pietreck widmet sich aus einer medienwissenschaftlichen Perspektive erstmals ausführlich der Paradegeste des Publikums und&nbsp;ihrer Geschichte. Dabei kommen enttäuschte Künstler*innen, die ein Applausverbot fordern, ebenso zu Wort wie Online-Anbieter, die versuchen, ihr Geschäft mithilfe von gekauften Likes und Follower*innen anzukurbeln. Die Kulturgeschichte des Publikums und seines Klatschens eröffnet unerwartete Einblicke ins Theatergeschäft, in historische und aktuelle Medienzusammenhänge sowie in Politik und Sport.

From the creator of the viral Kardashian Kolloquium comes a New Media manifesto for the TikTok age - blending theory, cultural analysis and history to explain the meteoric rise of the Kardashians and what their fame reveals about how media functions today. Since 2007, Kim Kardashian and her extended family have mesmerised - and scandalised - the American public. We've been immersed in their social lives, controversies and reality TV exploits, while witnessing the staggering ascent of their multibillion-dollar fashion, beauty and media empire. But the central question remains: why are the Kardashians so famous? And what does their enduring relevance tell us about the media systems that shaped - and were shaped by - them? In Dekonstructing the Kardashians, MJ Corey, creator of the viral social platform Kardashian Kolloquium, delivers more than just the definitive cultural chronicle of the First Family of reality TV. She offers a probing exploration of how media has evolved in the internet age -and how it's reshaping our identities, our attention, and our understanding of reality itself. Part media theory, part cultural critique and part historical deep-dive, Dekonstructing the Kardashians weaves together fifty years of Western media history. Corey shows that the Kardashians aren't just celebrities - they're a mirror of our media moment, offering a key to understanding fame, identity and reality in the digital age.

Dekonstructing the Kardashians

We've had the time of our lives as Swifties, and now that story-full of boundless joy, unexpected friendships, cherished memories, and wild theories-lives in this celebration of our fandom and the reason were all here: Taylor Swift. We all know how it started: A teenage girl from Pennsylvania moved to Nashville and rose to the top of the country music charts. In 2006, Taylor Swift’s story began—and with it, so did ours as Swifties. The Story of Us is a heartfelt journey through Swiftie history, capturing the evolution of a fandom that has stood the test of time. Told through the lens of personal experiences, this book chronicles the rise of a fandom that has remained fiercely loyal through every era. From calling radio stations to request “Tim McGraw,” to those unforgettable moments on Tumblr when Taylor and fans felt like friends, to surviving the Ticketmaster war—we’ve been there. We’ve learned life lessons, traded friendship bracelets, mastered time zone math to tune in to livestreams, and created a language only another Swiftie—or Taylor herself—could understand. But beyond all of these shared moments, what truly binds us is how Taylor’s lyrics feel like they were written just for us—like reflections of our own stories. This passionate and unique fandom has won awards and been intensely studied, but for the first time, fans can reminisce and celebrate what it means to be part of this life-changing community. A love letter written by a Swiftie for Swifties, The Story of Us ensures that our story will never be forgotten.

Urban Studies

Today, art practices unfold across physical sites and digital platforms. In her study, Ludovica Tomarchio reveals how museums, art districts, and small cultural venues are reshaped by the logics of social media, influencing visibility, public experience, and spatial practices. Through detailed case studies from Singapore and beyond, this book demonstrates how architecture, curatorial practices, and social media platform cultures interact in processes of hybrid spatial production.

If You Only Knew - When Blind Trust Fails

Kultur und soziale Praxis

Was passiert, wenn hochqualifizierte Menschen zwischen geographisch und kulturell nahen Nachbarländern migrieren?&nbsp;Natascha Bregy&nbsp;beleuchtet systematisch die komplexen Erfahrungen deutscher und schweizerischer Migrant*innen und deckt dabei überraschende Hürden auf. So stoßen Deutsche auf Germanophobie und Identitätsdiskurse, während Schweizer*innen als privilegierte Migrant*innen gelten. Die Analyse zeigt, welch große Auswirkungen minimale kulturelle Unterschiede haben können, und erweitert unser Verständnis von 'unproblematischer' EU-Migration - ein wichtiger Beitrag zur Migrationsdebatte, der deutlich macht, dass auch bei scheinbar simpler Migration komplexe Dynamiken von Zugehörigkeit, Integration und Identität entstehen.

Bloomsbury Studies in Digital Cultures

In 1945, W. Averell Harriman, US Ambassador to the Soviet Union, was presented with a carved wooden plaque of the Great Seal of the United States as a 'gesture of friendship' by a delegation from the Soviet's Young Pioneer Organization.
Unbeknownst to him, one of the first covert listening devices, invented by Leon Theremin was hidden within it and was subsequently used to listen in on the ambassador's conversations for six years before being discovered. This book uses remarkable tales like this to tell the story of how modern audio surveillance developed and its important role in the evolution of today's artificial intelligence.


 Beginning with post-WW2 monitoring devices, Listening In traces an arc through the Cold War era into the present day in which state and commercial spyware can record our calls, copy messages and secretly film us. It subsequently moves into the near future where AI-assisted technologies can listen to things we have not yet said as well as digitally simulate and record our voices after we have died. Exploring how mass audio surveillance is carried out through devices such as smart phones, speakers and baby monitors and used to inform and train AI algorithms, the book provides fresh insights into how we are allowing our personal privacies to be traded for enhanced social connectivity and technological convenience. Ultimately Listening In reveals how the urge to listen and record everything that has ever been uttered is scored deeply into the technological operating systems of cultures from around the world.

Listening In is also available in audiobook format from audiobook retailers.

How Audio Surveillance Became Artificial Intelligence

Listening In

Doing Nothing is a book about doing nothing in a system where there is always something pressing that ought to be done. Not the productive unstructured time of self-help books, but the aimless and ineffective doing nothing of procrastination, resignation, and melancholia. James Currie pursues these themes across a wide terrain of experiences, materials, and examples from the personal, local, and anecdotal, through to the existential, cosmological, and apocalyptic-reflecting, among other things, on the COVID pandemic, the lives of teenagers, Lars Van Trier's 2011 film Melancholia, work, play, and politics. Doing Nothing offers a lived-in embrace of queer states of being that stand against liveliness and the mournful feelings of entrapment and shame that exist alongside the unexpected opportunities such situations afford.

A thrilling history of how we fell in and out of love with a technology that changed not just the world, but changed us. 'Science and technology never seem more exciting than when James Gleick is writing about them' - Elizabeth Kolbert, author of The Sixth Extinction 'Forces you to see the world with new eyes. Blending expertise with a thrilling narrative . . . I loved it!' - Alice Loxton, author of Eighteen and Eleanor 'Charts our distance-compressing, time-shifting telephonic adventure with exceptional brio and subtlety' - Stacy Schiff, author of The Revolutionary: Samuel Adams A supernatural instrument bringing voices from afar, the telephone burst onto the world stage 150 years ago, a triumphant story of individual ingenuity and vision. Instantly, the ability to speak across vast distances began to transform every part of life: from business organization to military tactics, from news gathering to sex work. But the story of The Telephone is also one of corrupt scheming and ruthless tactics; the race to the patent office, to make money, a contest replete with bribery, fraud and speculation. And no one, not even its inventors, realised what the telephone was good for or how ubiquitous it would become. As the telephone settled into the background - in offices and on streets, on bedside tables and kitchen walls - people forgot how they ever lived without it. Now, as landlines, telephone books and telephone boxes vanish into the past, bestselling author James Gleick shows how this commonplace object irreversibly changed not only the world but who we are as human beings. 'Gleick does what only the best science writers can do: take a subject of which most of us are only peripherally aware and put it at the center of the universe' - Time

A BOOK OF THE YEAR IN THE TIMES, DAILY TELEGRAPH, FINANCIAL TIMES AND IRISH TIMES From the author of Klopp: My Liverpool Romance comesanother funny and insightful look at one of Britain's greatest and strangest soccer figures. He was stranger than he knew - than any of us knew. &gt;Tracking his career from youth-team player at Scunthorpe to the England manager's job, by way of Liverpool, Newcastle and Hamburg, Keegan considers the extravagant highs of a man who touched the game with genius, who was never fired and who came within an ace of triumph as a manager. A story of almost and maybe, of excellence and of failure, it is a story too, perhaps, of the fans' quixotic search for a messiah.
