Immersive Journalism As Storytelling IMMERSIVE JOURNALISM AS STORYTELLING This book sets out cutting- edge new research and examines future prospects of 360- degree video, virtual reality (VR), and augmented reality (AR) in journalism, analyzing and discussing virtual world experiments from a range of perspectives. Featuring contributions from a diverse range of scholars, Immersive Journalism as Storytelling highlights both the opportunities and the challenges presented by this form of storytelling. The book discusses how immersive journalism has the potential to reach new audiences, change the way stories are told, and provide more interactivity within the news industry. Aside from generating deeper emotional reactions and global perspectives, the book demonstrates how it can also diversify and upskill the news industry. Further contributions address the challenges, examining how immersive storytelling calls for reassessing issues of journalism ethics and truthfulness, transparency, privacy, manipulation, and surveillance, and questioning what it means to cover reality when a story is told in virtual reality. Chapters are grounded in empirical data such as content analyses and expert interviews alongside insightful case studies that discuss Euronews, Nonny de la Peña’s Project Syria, and The New York Times’ VR application NYTVR. This book is written for journalism teachers, educators, and students as well as scholars, politicians, lawmakers, and citizens with an interest in emerging technologies for media practice.

Barroso, Polytechnic Institute of Viseu (Portugal) [email protected] Received: 12/11/19 ● Accepted: 10/12/19 ● Published: 19/12/19 How to reference this paper: Barroso, Paulo M. (2019). Hyperreality and virtual worlds: when the virtual is real, Sphera Publica, 2(19), 36‐58. Abstract This article questions what is hyperreality and underlines the role of the signs/images fostering the perception of a virtual world. It argues the potentiality of signs as artefacts. Starting from Agamben’s perspective regarding contemporary, the hyperreality is understood as a modern, visual and mass manifestation of the need for simulacra in a non-referential virtual world. How hyperreality, spectacle, simulation, and appearance emerge out of reality? What is authentic or real are issues raised using images and technological devices. The images are popular and amplify the effects of distraction and social alienation. The image is immediately absorbed, spectacular, attractive, a peculiar ready-to-think that eliminates or dilutes the concepts and produces a fast culture. Through a reflexive strategy, this article is conceptual (it has no case study or empirical work) and has the purpose of problematize the experience of hyperreality, which is reshaping and restructuring patterns of social life and social interdependence, and the ways we see, think, feel, act or just mean and interpret the reality. Keywords Hyperreality, image, real, virtual worlds, technology Barroso Hiperrealidad y mundos virtuales Hiperrealidad y mundos virtuales: cuando lo virtual es real Paulo M.

  • 2020 Annual Report
    ACHILLES INTERNATIONAL 2020 ANNUAL REPORT I LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT Dear Achilles family, Thank you. As we embrace this new year, we do so with the acknowledgement that although 2020 took a toll on all of us, our community came together to embrace chal- lenges; to encourage resilience and strength; and above all, to support one another. We could not have done it without you and I am incredibly grateful for every individual that makes up the Achilles community. As we were ramping up our plans for 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic quickly pushed us to reinvent our approach to programming and connecting with each other. In true Achil- les fashion, our community of athletes, volunteers, staff, supporters and friends rose to the occasion and embraced opportunities to connect, consider and appreciate our shared experiences in new and creative ways. From late night (or early morning) Chap- ter Zoom calls and virtual dance parties to digitally delivered workouts and team-based challenges, we have found meaningful ways to stay active, engaged and connected, even as we remain apart. We did not let the absence of a shared starting line prevent us from supporting athletes in their training and nurturing our community’s determination to achieve big goals. In this report you’ll read about several highlights of the year including our Virtual Hope & Possibility race and the Achilles Cup. In addition to these successful virtual events that brought together thousands of athletes across the globe, Achilles was well represented in several marquee events that moved from the road to the web including the virtual marathons in Boston, New York City and Chicago, among others.

  • Examining the Magazine Industry Standard
    POINT OF VIEW: EXAMINING THE MAGAZINE INDUSTRY STANDARD A Thesis presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School at the University of Missouri In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts by CRISTINA DAGLAS John Fennell, Thesis Supervisor MAY 2009 © Copyright by Cristina Daglas 2009 All Rights Reserved The undersigned, appointed by the dean of the Graduate School, have examined the thesis entitled POINT OF VIEW : EXAMINING THE MAGAZINE INDUSTRY STANDARD presented by Cristina Daglas, a candidate for the degree of master of arts, and hereby certify that, in their opinion, it is worthy of acceptance. Professor John Fennell Professor Jennifer Rowe Professor Amanda Hinnant Professor Maureen Stanton ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am immensely grateful to my thesis chair, John Fennell, who believed in both the necessity for and the feasibility of this research. When many doubted the ability to interview prominent magazine professionals, John provided support and guidance while always keeping setbacks and successes in perspective. John has been a mentor from first semester of graduate school when I enrolled in his writing course, and I am so pleased that I could pursue a topic I am incredibly passionate about with his guidance. However, this research would naturally not be what it is without the rest of my fabulous committee. Jennifer Rowe, my other mentor, adviser and friend, was an invaluable resource, as she provided big-picture edits, line edits and, most importantly, support. Amanda Hinnant provided advice in the earliest days of thesis conception as well as the scholarly perspective necessary in any academic work. Maureen Stanton was also a wonderful resource, imparting an outside, nonfiction mindset that added another dimension to this journalistic thesis.
