In the light of new digital production and dissemination practices, the scholarly publishing system has seen significant and also disruptive changes, especially in STM (science, technology and ...medicine) and with regard to the predominant format “journal article”. The digital transformation also holds true for those disciplines that continue to rely on the scholarly monograph as a publication format and means for reputation building, namely the Humanities and the Social Sciences with a qualitative approach (HSS). In our paper we analyse the reasons why the monograph has not yet reached its full potential in the digital paradigm, especially in the uptake of Open Access and innovative publishing options. We highlight some of the principal underlying factors for this, and suggest how especially practices, now more widespread in HSS but arising from the Digital Humanities, could play a role in moving forward the rich digitality of the scholarly monograph.
The Covid-19 pandemic plunged many theaters around the world into a temporary crisis and favored the rise of digital theater forms. This article investigates how the reception of theater changes in ...the digital space and, above all, how audiences as a social dimension of theatrical performances must first be constituted separately there. Based on performance analysis of the digital theater productions Homecoming and Sterben from Germany, the significance of the digital infrastructure for the assembly, performance, and action repertoires of these theater audiences is discussed. The author examines how audiences can be formed into different temporal communities in the digital space. These temporal communities are characterized by hybridity and have the potential to enable intense theatrical encounters across spatial boundaries.
Philosophie fragt mittenhinein ins Wahre, Gute, Schöne. Medienphilosophie sucht an den Rändern und in den Ecken der Existenz das nur manchmal Wahre, das Materiale, das Vorübergehende und Alltägliche ...auf.
Die Relevanz des (vermeintlich) Irrelevanten herauszustellen und philosophischer Analyse zuzuführen, dient der Aufsatzband zur Medienphilosophie. Er verortet sich in der Mitte zwischen allen möglichen Dualismen und favorisiert ein Denken des Dritten und Medialen. Philosophisches Denken ist bis heute in dualistische Lager gespalten (z.B. Materialismus und Idealismus), wobei die Selbstunterordnung unter die Normen von Kohärenz und Widerspruchsfreiheit die Tendenz zu dualistischem, ausschließendem Denken noch verstärkt. In seiner Rigidität übersieht es die interessanten Zwischenbereiche und Gemischtheiten des Denkens und Lebens. Diese gilt es in konkreten Medienanalysen (medien-)philosophisch zu beleuchten.

Die Auswirkungen der Corona-Pandemie für das Aufwachsen von Jugendlichen werden in Diskursen der Kinder- und Jugendhilfe breit diskutiert. Neben dem Umgang mit Aspekten von Social und Spatial ...Distancing im Kontext (sozial)pädagogischer Beziehungen ist dabei vor allem die intensivierte Nutzung digitaler Technologien in den Mittelpunkt des Interesses gerückt. Im vorliegenden Beitrag gehen wir davon aus, dass diese intensivierte Nutzung zumindest in Teilen postpandemisch erhalten bleibt und damit Fragen von Digitalität und Digitalisierung in der Jugendhilfe neu gestellt werden können und müssen. Dies unterstellend fragt der Beitrag, ob durch gesteigerte Nutzung digitaler Technologien sozialpädagogische Beziehungen grundlegend verändert werden. Hierzu entfalten wir zunächst ein Verständnis von (sozial) pädagogischen Beziehungen im Spannungsfeld von Nähe und Distanz und führen in einem zweiten Schritt eine Heuristik ein, die Digitalität in analytische Differenz zu Digitalisierung setzt. Unter dieser Perspektive fragen wir dann bezogen auf die Arbeitsfelder Beratung, die offene Kinder- und Jugendarbeit und die (teil)stationären Hilfen zur Erziehung nach möglichen Veränderungen in Beziehungspraktiken der Kinder- und Jugendhilfe. Dabei zeigt sich, dass ein erweitertes Verständnis von pädagogischen Orten notwendig ist, um konzeptionelle, handlungspraktische und theoretische Fragen sozialpädagogischer Beziehungsgestaltung im Horizont einer selbstverständlichen Nutzung digitaler Dinge bearbeiten zu können.
Afropessimism, or the western media tradition of covering Africa in stereotypically negative ways, has continually served to strip the continent of representational nuance and agency. While Africa ...experienced its own COVID-19 challenges during the pandemic, the Afropessimistic outlook of total collapse and carnage did not become a reality. In fact, with the popular uptake of TikTok as the pandemic wore on, Africans began social media trends that kept many globally entertained as they navigated new lockdown realities. This study looks at three of these TikTok trends, namely #JerusalemaChallenge, #DontRushChallenge and #DontLeaveMeChallenge. Through textual analysis, the study explores if and how these trends provided counternarratives to Afropessimism. With dominant themes such as humour and dance emerging, findings suggest that these trends offered content that can be read as contributing to challenging Afropessimism through cultivating African digital agency and representation.
Es gibt immer mehr Literatur, in der die Bedeutung des digitalen Geschichtenerzählens in der Lebenswelt von Schüler:innen untersucht wird. Ausgehend von ambivalenten Narrativen in religionsbezogenen ...Erklärfilmen von MrWissen2go alias Mirko Drotschmann fragt vorliegender Beitrag nach Perspektiven einer aktuellen Didaktik der Kirchengeschichte: erstens bezüglich Kirchengeschichte als Zugang zur religiösen Deutung der Wirklichkeit in säkularer Zeit, zweitens hinsichtlich postkolonial revidierter Ansätze und drittens in Bezug auf die Herausforderungen der Digitalisierung. Insgesamt leistet dieser Aufsatz einen innovativen Beitrag zu neueren historiographischen und didaktischen Debatten über Religion und Bildung heute.
Mass society theory was originally a discourse on crowds, popular culture and revolutionary change. It portrayed the ideological control of the many by the few in situations of close contact without ...the complexities of mediated connectivity. The notion of social change was premised on analogue forms of collective behaviour within society rather than digital flows in networks. Reviving this theory in the digital era requires a reconsideration of connectivity and control transacted in mediated publics that support virtual gatherings centred on mass- self communication. Smartphones may be considered the iconic connectors that channel such communication. These electronic devices provide a vital understanding not only of the way information and communication technology is reshaping mass society but also the repositioning of the individual in networked relationships. It implies that mass in digitized environments is not simply a concept of nameless uniformity but one stressing the parasitic nature of networked connectivity. At the same time, it also suggests a connectivity made fragile by forms of remote control that are predatory on mass-self communication.
Marketing intelligence fosters two major developments within digital service marketing. On the one hand, a boom of services seems to have evolved, accelerated by the opportunities of marketing ...intelligence. It has contributed to the optimization of customer experiences, e.g., supported by mobile, personalized, and customized marketing services. On the other hand, (digital) self-services are likely to pervert the term “service”. Lifecycle marketing, including annoying marketing communication in real-time, automated price adjustment and programmatic advertising based on artificial intelligence, affects the vision of fully standardized marketing automation. Additionally, there are incentives to pollute the digital information in order to manufacture opinions. Fake news is one popular example. This leads to the (open) question if marketing intelligence means service boom or bust of marketing. This contribution aims to elaborate the boom-and-bust aspects of marketing intelligence and suggests a trade-off. The method applied in this paper will be a descriptive and conceptual literature review, through which the paradigmatic thoughts will be juxtaposed from the perspective of service.
This essay engages with the aesthetics and politics of digitality through a parallel study of Samuel Beckett's writing and the development of the electronic digital computer. By placing these ...distinct threads in parallel, the essay argues that the digital logic of command and control, in which the experienced world and the possibilities for future action are parsed, formulated as text and expressed as sets of discrete algorithms, represents an emerging mode of thought that must be traced through textual as well as technical practices from the mid-twentieth century onwards.
