  • The Comet Newsletter January 2020
    1 The Comet Newsletter January 2020 A Family Divide It was Christmas Eve, and my extended family had just sat down for dinner. We began to eat, smiling and joking all around. You could almost say it was like the early 2000’s -- except, well, I hadn’t been born yet. There was one stark contrast, though. As I looked around, each of my relatives had a device less than one foot away from them, at hand’s reach. My little cousin had put his iPad next to his plate, grubby fingerprints smeared all over. My aunt’s Samsung was daintily resting on her water cup. Even my dad -- who claims to be a technology abstainer -- had slipped his phone into his jeans pocket, one tap away from seeing the weather forecast, or the latest New York Times article, or a photo from our last trip. At first, the technology that surrounded our dinner didn’t seem to be a distraction. But one by one, as the meal progressed, family members began to succumb to the urge to peek at their devices, perhaps discreetly swipe a few times under the tablecloth. My cousins, for one, went all out, hefting their tablets sturdily onto their half-full plates and going to town with games. Conversation across the table went on, but it became more absent-minded and preoccupied. Believe it or not, this is a real scenario across the US that happens in more than just our household. When each member of the family has a device, it’s easy to forget the simple pleasure of spending quality time with one another.

August 2018 Lea Nüske Zusammenfassung Die vorliegende Arbeit Comedy as Resistance – Indian Stand-Up Comedians and Their Fight Against India’s Anti-Democratic Tendencies beschäftigt sich mit der Frage, ob und inwiefern Stand-Up Comedy in Indien als Mittel zum sozio-politischen Widerstand genutzt wird und wie weitreichend dieser Widerstand einzuschätzen ist. Um diese Frage zu beantworten werden zunächst die Merkmale des Genres sowie ihre Funktionen untersucht, um herauszustellen, weshalb sich besonders Stand-Up Comedy dafür eignet, indirekten politischen Widerstand zu leisten. Auch die Geschichte des satirischen Widerstandes und des Genres Stand-Up Comedy im indischen Kontext sowie die soziale Spaltung der Gesellschaft, die durch verschiedene Konflikte zum Ausdruck gebracht wird

  • Discovering Binge Watching and Audience Engagement Through Sentiment Analysis
    International Journal of Advanced Science and Technology Vol. 29, No. 7, (2020), pp. 8030-8038 Discovering Binge watching and Audience Engagement through Sentiment Analysis *Devesh Lowe1, Bhavna Galhotra2, Yukti Ahuja3 1,2IT Department, JIMS Rohini Sector-5, Delhi-1100851 *[email protected], [email protected] 3Management Department, JIMS Rohini Sector-5, Delhi-1100852 [email protected] Abstract Indian audience have trusted and enjoyed television entertainment for the longest time until an alternate medium called Internet based Video on demand (VOD) emerged. The new digital medium let users handpick and watch/listen to video or audio content at a time of their choice. Binge-watching, meaning watching multiple episodes of the same TV series continuously constitutes this phenomenon. Little is known about the transition in the Indian viewer’s behaviour from scheduled broadcast viewership to marathon consumption of entertainment. This study explores how social platforms are deployed to reach and entice audience towards Netflix, Amazon Mx player etc. The study unfolds the audience sentiments towards OVD programming, its promotion and impact with the use of sentiment analysis. The methodology deployed for the study includes a preliminary analysis of secondary data comprising articles, research papers and cases followed by analysis of data collated via Twitter to articulate the viewers’ opinion. The results of the study reflect upon the rising interest in web content and growing fondness for web based video programming. The study is first of its kind in the Indian context and has key takeaways for practitioners in the VOD programming industry, marketing professionals and researchers working in this arena.

  • Global Tree Planting with Purpose and Power
    Global Tree Planting with Purpose and Power Partnership Study: Social media influencers inspire large-scale action among a new generation of tree planters What started as a callout on the social media platform Reddit quickly turned into an environmental force, driven by a new audience of tree planters. #TeamTrees — a collective effort with YouTube creators to inspire support for tree planting around the globe — took social media by storm in the fall of 2019. The campaign was one of the fastest-growing environmental fundraising initiatives to date and the largest crowdfunding effort in YouTube’s history. A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY #TeamTrees began with YouTube influencers MrBeast (Jimmy Donaldson, widely followed for his creative philanthropy) and Mark Rober (former NASA scientist) accepting a challenge to plant 20 million trees in honor of MrBeast’s 20 millionth subscriber. They chose to collaborate with the Arbor Day Foundation in managing the campaign to leverage three of its key strengths: ➊ Unique Position: The Foundation is uniquely equipped to handle a tree planting project of this scale and scope. ➋ Integrity: A commitment to planting the right tree in the right place for the right reasons. ➌ Credibility: A proven track record of working with a network of partners to deliver results. The goal was to raise $20 million by January 1, 2020. Each dollar raised would plant a tree, and trees would be planted on every continent except Antarctica. Hundreds of other content creators on YouTube and other social platforms were recruited to help lead the charge, and everyone involved developed unique content to drive their viewers to donate on TeamTrees.org in support of tree planting.
