  • Uncanny Resemblances? Captive Audience Positions and Media-Conscious Performances in Berlin During the 1936 Summer Olympics and the 2006 FIFA World Cup
    International Journal of Communication 13(2019), 5310–5332 1932–8036/20190005 Uncanny Resemblances? Captive Audience Positions and Media-Conscious Performances in Berlin During the 1936 Summer Olympics and the 2006 FIFA World Cup SAMI KOLAMO University of Tampere, Finland JANI VUOLTEENAHO University of Helsinki, Finland With an eye to attracting global media attention, the ordinary cityscape is purposefully transformed into an out-of-the-ordinary eventscape during major sports occasions. Focusing on the production of captive audience positions and event-goers’ associated media-conscious performances, this article compares the implementation of event spaces in the totalitarian-propagandist context of the 1936 Berlin Olympics with the commercially branded 2006 FIFA World Cup in Germany. Apart from blatant dissimilarities in ideological-commercial motifs and emotionally charged forms of audiencehood between these urban spectacles, variable media-densified audience positions were carefully built into the design of both events. The key commonalities include the turning of urban public spaces into strictly controlled event enclaves, civic education aimed at image leveraging through ambassadorial conduct, and atmospheric intensification by enthusiastic audience-performers. We conclude that these measures to maximize positive media publicity continue to steer, in increasingly multimedial ways, the production of urban megaevents even in the digitalized present.

So konnten wir im Heimspiel gegen Mainz die nächsten drei Punkte einfahren und auch im DFB Pokal sind wir durch den Sieg bei unseren Freunden in der nächsten Runde. Das wichtigste Spiel stand allerdings letzten Samstag beim 40 Kilometer entfernten Feind an. Hier präsentierte sich die Elf auf dem Rasen als auch die Nordkurve Gelsenkirchen auf den Rängen eines Derbys würdig, sodass wir zumindest einen Punkt aus dem Westfalenstadion mitnehmen konnten. Mit dem SV Werder Bremen steht heute ein vermeintlich leichter Gegner auf dem Spielplan. Allerdings trennt die beiden Clubs gerade mal ein Punkt und die Grün-Weißen können mit einem Sieg an uns vorbeiziehen. Es gilt daher auch heute wieder, mit voller Konzentration und Einsatz den Platz zu betreten.
