  • Constructing, Programming, and Branding Celebrity on Reality Television
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Producing Reality Stardom: Constructing, Programming, and Branding Celebrity on Reality Television A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the Requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Film and Television by Lindsay Nicole Giggey 2017 © Copyright by Lindsay Nicole Giggey 2017 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Producing Reality Stardom: Constructing, Programming, and Branding Celebrity on Reality Television by Lindsay Nicole Giggey Doctor of Philosophy in Film and Television University of California, Los Angeles, 2017 Professor John T. Caldwell, Chair The popular preoccupation with celebrity in American culture in the past decade has been bolstered by a corresponding increase in the amount of reality programming across cable and broadcast networks that centers either on established celebrities or on celebrities in the making. This dissertation examines the questions: How is celebrity constructed, scheduled, and branded by networks, production companies, and individual participants, and how do the constructions and mechanisms of celebrity in reality programming change over time and because of time? I focus on the vocational and cultural work entailed in celebrity, the temporality of its production, and the notion of branding celebrity in reality television. Dissertation chapters will each focus on the kinds of work that characterize reality television production cultures at the network, production company, and individual level, with specific attention paid to programming focused ii on celebrity making and/or remaking. Celebrity is a cultural construct that tends to hide the complex labor processes that make it possible. This dissertation unpacks how celebrity status is the product of a great deal of seldom recognized work and calls attention to the hidden infrastructures that support the production, maintenance, and promotion of celebrity on reality television.

  • Archival Circulation on the Web: the Vine-Tweets Dataset
    Archival Circulation on the Web: The Vine-Tweets Dataset Ed Summers and Amy Wickner 06.04.19 Peer-Reviewed By: Anon. Clusters: Data Article DOI: 10.22148/16.040 Journal ISSN: 2371-4549 Cite: Ed Summers and Amy Wickner, “Archival Circulation on the Web: The Vine- Tweets Dataset,”Journal of Cultural Analytics. May 4, 2019. At Ethics and Archiving the Web, a conference convened in March 2018 at the New Museum in New York City, a group of artists, archivists, activists and re- searchers met to critically examine the ethical implications of our ability to col- lect and archive content from the web. In a session focused on the ethics of digital folklore, Frances Corry asked the audience to consider, ”What’s the right way to shut down a social networking site?” (Figure 1). Corry specifically discussed the closure of Vine, a social media service designed for sharing six-second video clips. She highlighted how, despite Vine’s best in- tentions to sunset their service “the right way,” mistakes were made regarding missing content and leaked personal information in users’ archives.2 Despite these difficulties, Vine’s effort remains noteworthy because of how it mobilizes the concept of an archive in dismantling its online service. Vine’s commitment to preserving content with user consent stands in stark contrast to the way many web platforms have shuttered their windows, barricaded their doors, and pulled vast amounts of content offline in the process. 1Christine A George, “Frances Corry provides a ‘burning yellow’ background for a burning ethical question,” Twitter, March 23, 2017.

  • Diaspora Knowledge Flows in the Global Economy
    E-Leader Budapest 2010 Diaspora Knowledge Flows in the Global Economy Dr. Martin Grossman Bridgewater State College Department of Management Bridgewater, MA, USA Abstract Globalization has fostered greater rates of mobility and an increasing reliance on transnational networks for commerce, social interaction, and the transfer of knowledge. This is particularly true among diaspora groups who have left their homelands in search of better economic and political environments. Unlike those of the past, today’s migrants stay connected via information and communications technology (ICT). Digital diaspora networks have the potential to reverse brain drain (the flight of human capital resulting from emigration) by facilitating knowledge sharing and technology transfer between the diaspora and the homeland. This paper explores the role that ICT-enabled diasporic networks are playing in reversing brain drain and stimulating brain gain and brain circulation. International development initiatives as well as empirical studies revolving around this concept are reviewed. The case of China is presented as an example of a country that has successfully leveraged its diaspora by implementing a number of strategies, including those based on ICT. A proposed research project, involving the Cape Verdean diaspora in Massachusetts, is also discussed. Introduction In today’s global economy intellectual capital has become the most important factor of production, underlying a nation’s ability to innovate and remain competitive (Stewart, 2007). Knowledge workers have become highly mobile, enabling them to seek out education and employment opportunities in other countries. While this might constitute a net gain for the country on the receiving end, it may also represent a serious loss of talent and ‘know-how’ from the home country.

A teenager with a social media addiction has become so engrossed in the virtual world that it has impacted the real world, causing harmful effects. While many teens engage in social media through platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Vine, Snapchat, and others, teens who are addicted to social media see a negative impact on their real life relationships and responsibilities. Dominant Characteristics of Social Media Addiction in Teens Paradigm Malibu explains that social media addiction most often entails two distinct characteristics ​ of addiction: the extensive amount of time spent on social media and the underlying reasons why they’re engaged online. A teen with a social media addiction has an overwhelming desire to participate in the virtual world. The teen will feel internal pressure to check their updates, add new statuses, post a photo, or engage in other online activity. A teen addicted to social media will prefer the virtual connections and relationships to those in real life. As the teenage years are a pivotal time for social growth in teens, this desire can be harmful as the teen may not develop healthy or appropriate social skills.
