Citizen Media and the Perils of Technology ShiftsIvan Sigal, Executive Director, Global Voices

Tuesday, 1st March 2016 at 4pm, Bute Building Room 0.14

Commercial social media platforms and their shaping of online speech now dominate citizen media, and shift how we write, speak and make images. The concomitant decline of the single-author blog points to a shift away from coherent online writing and toward fragmented online speech, visual conversation and increasingly, closed group conversations not accessible by search. We will examine the implications for social media reporting and public conversation, and consider possible future directions for this tech shift.
