In light of our vision to recognize and place the engineering consulting industry as the key delivery driver of the current and ongoing infrasructure revolution and transformation occurring in Los Angeles, our goals for the 2018-2019 year were to strengthen our position as a trusted industry advisor and go-to organization for legislative issues and to influence and support the sustainability and relevancy of ACEC through increased participation by diverse and young professionals. We achieved these goals through strengthened engagement and outreach with local government agencies, member firms and the public, which resulted in increased participation in active ACEC-LA liaison committees, collaboration with Metro’s public procurement process, promotion of member firms in theLA Business Journal, continued leadership in industry best practices for engineering consulting with the ports and cities throughout Los Angeles County and increased social media followers and meeting attendance by a diverse next generation of engineers.

A major critique of the genre is that it simply represents an adolescent male power fantasy; and presents a world view that valorises masculinist individualism.

  • Bandersnatch, a Standalone Episode of Science–Ction Series Black Mirror, Presenting Viewers with Interactive Features That Actively Impact the Lm's Narrative
    Netix’s B andersnatch and the battle of services for consumer screen time The platformisation of interfaciality and infrastructuralisation of streaming services Lucas Prado Amaral Student ID: 12239615 MA New Media and Digital Culture University of Amsterdam Supervisor: dr. Alex Gekker Second reader: dr. Marc D. Tuters June 2019 Abstract On December 28, 2018, streaming service Netix released an interactive lm entitled Black Mirror: Bandersnatch , a standalone episode of science–ction series Black Mirror, presenting viewers with interactive features that actively impact the lm's narrative. Bandersnatch came about in a time when many big companies from the entertainment and media world, such as Disney and Apple, announced the future launch of their own streaming service, posing as direct competitors to Netix. By taking a theoretical bifocal approach, as proposed by Plantin et al., I take Netix as my object of study and analyse it from the perspective of platform studies and infrastructure studies, in that they reveal the streaming service's dual nature. As a contribution to the eld, I propose two phenomena: the platformisation of interfaciality, presenting new formats for storytelling, and allowing for the collection of more user data; and the infrastructuralisation of streaming services , whether through creating devices that support its online operations, or connecting to a network that reaches a global-scale. As the streaming race gets more competitive for Netix, I analyse the ways in which Bandersnatch becomes a useful strategy for the company against other services, in terms of: (1) all of the behavioural metrics it yields, (2) new possibilities for revenue sources (such as product placement), and (3) consuming more of users’ screen time.
