Digital Media : Human–Technology Connection
Digital Media: Human-Technology Connection examines what it is like to be alive in today’s technologically textured world and showcases specific digital media technologies that makes this kind of world possible.So much of human experience occurs through digital media that it is time to pause and consider the process and proliferation of digital consumption and humanity’s role in it through an interdisciplinary array of sources from philosophy, media studies, film studies, media ecology and philosophy of technology.When placed in the interpretive lens of artifact, instrument, and tool, digital media can be studied in a uniquely different way, as a kind of technology that pushes the boundaries on production, distribution and communication and alters the way humans and technology connect with each other and the world.The book is divided into two sections to provide overarching definitions and case study specifics.Section one, Raw Materials, examines pertinent concepts like digital media, philosophy of technology, phenomenology and postphenomenology by author Stacey O Irwin.In Section Two, Feeling the Weave, Irwin uses conversations with digital media users and other written materials along with the postphenomenological framework to explore nine empirical cases that focus on deep analysis of screens, sound, photo manipulation, data-mining, aggregate news and self-tracking.Postphenomenological concepts like multistability, variational theory, microperception, macroperception, embodiment, technological mediation, and culture figure prominently in the investigation.The aim of the book is to recognize that digital media technologies and the content it creates and proliferates are not neutral.They texture the world in multiple and varied ways that transform human abilities, augment experience and pattern the world in significant and comprehensive ways.

Represent! : Studies of diversity and popular media culture
Even though knowledge about identity, sociocultural diversity, and popular media culture in society and academia has increased, many students, scholars, and engaged citizens are seeking out information and academic insights to being better equipped to talk and think about these themes.For instance, some may have a basic understanding of what ‘woke’ means but lack a historical awareness of the transformation of the term.Similarly, some may desire to understand why some television programs have been argued to be ‘heteronormative’ or ‘ableist.’ The aim of this book is to provide readers with comprehensible, tangible, and nuanced explanations about the way popular media culture has dealt with sociocultural diversity in Western societies.To do so, this book’s approach is threefold. First, starting from the belief that historical insights are essential to better grasp contemporary debates and practices vis-à-vis sociocultural diversity and popular media culture, the book provides insight into a selection of historical contexts and milestones.The historical sections will pay attention to changes in media representations of certain minority groups and to the way research into sociocultural diversity in media and popular culture developed.Second, the book explores a selection of key theoretical concepts, developed by scholars from communication sciences, media and cultural studies, and social theory, which help better understand the diverse ways sociocultural diversity has been engaged with in popular media culture, particularly in relation to aspects of production and representation.Third, the book offers reflections on contemporary trends, transformations, and challenges.
