New #OpenAccess article from the @LeedsUniMedia MUSICSTREAM team written by @hesmondthing @BondyKaye Mabu Li and yours truly on digital platforms and infrastructures in the realm of culture published by @CogitatioMaC 👇👇
Are digital platforms ways of disciplining infrastructures in the realm of culture? Our new open access article explores this idea, using music as a case study: cogitatiopress.com/mediaandc…

Spot-on thread on the ‘linguistic trap’ of our so-called international academia 🌎 something that all of us from non-anglophone contexts struggle with regardless of how many years of ESOL we’ve done.
p.s.: believe me, I’m much funnier (and hopefully smarter) in Portuguese 😅

Big tech really has won. Google monopolized search & socials promised reams of traffic. So digital media orgs began catering to their whims; tailoring stories to SEO, pivoting to video—and letting big tech horde the ad revenue.
Now we're just handing the stories directly to them
Just incredible. The CEO of VICE is giving up on one of the most popular global media brands, firing its journalists and shutting down Vice.com in order to "transition to a studio model" which means... what? Posting brand stuff to Instagram?
I have a new article in a special issue about #digital truth-making and #ethnography in @EthnoEuropaea. It historicises truth-making in Spain and highlights the unfitness of the concept of 'post-truth' when we talk about Spanish digital media

Thank you to @farkasjohan and @jl_nevado for their insights on post-truth and to @desselebrada and @AoDespair for not giving up on Spanish Twitter
I am giving a talk at the @UoAMusicDept as part of the Research Seminar series this Thurs at 1pm. Come say hi!

In sum, in the rush to mitigate the boycott, students’ hard work is not being taken seriously and they, and us, cannot have confidence that they are getting the grades they deserve. This has real and long-lasting implications for Leeds students and staff

Our last article, by @hesmondthing @BondyKaye Mabu Li and myself now together in the complete special issue
The findings contribute to research on political #economy and #Internet governance, with a case study on the platformisation of online music. bit.ly/3NpCpqc
