  • Theorising the Practice of Expressing a Fictional World Across Distinct Media and Environments
    Transmedia Practice: Theorising the Practice of Expressing a Fictional World across Distinct Media and Environments by Christy Dena A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) School of Letters, Art and Media Department of Media and Communications Digital Cultures Program University of Sydney Australia Supervisor: Professor Gerard Goggin Associate Supervisor: Dr. Chris Chesher Associate Supervisor: Dr. Anne Dunn 2009 Let’s study, with objectivity and curiosity, the mutation phenomenon of forms and values in the current world. Let’s be conscious of the fact that although tomorrow’s world does not have any chance to become more fair than any other, it owns a chance that is linked to the destiny of the current art [...] that of embodying, in their works some forms of new beauty, which will be able to arise only from the meet of all the techniques. (Francastel 1956, 274) Translation by Regina Célia Pinto, emailed to the empyre mailing list, Jan 2, 2004. Reprinted with permission. To the memory of my dear, dear, mum, Hilary. Thank you, for never denying yourself the right to Be. ~ Transmedia Practice ~ Abstract In the past few years there have been a number of theories emerge in media, film, television, narrative and game studies that detail the rise of what has been variously described as transmedia, cross-media and distributed phenomena. Fundamentally, the phenomenon involves the employment of multiple media platforms for expressing a fictional world. To date, theorists have focused on this phenomenon in mass entertainment, independent arts or gaming; and so, consequently the global, transartistic and transhistorical nature of the phenomenon has remained somewhat unrecognised.

COUNTRYMAN University of Michigan This article traces the origins of black independent electoral activism in Philadelphia during the 1970s to the Black Power movement of the 1960s. Specifically, it argues that Black Power activists in Philadelphia turned to electoral strategies to consolidate their efforts to achieve community control over public insti- tutions in the city’s black working-class neighborhoods. Finally, the article concludes with a brief evalu- ation of the careers of African American activist state legislators David Richardson and Roxanne Jones and W. Wilson Goode, Philadelphia’s first African American mayor. Keywords: Black Power; community control; independent politics; Democratic Party The political philosophy of black nationalism means that the black man should control the politics and politicians in his own community.

    © 2011 Behice Ece Ilhan TRANSMEDIA CONSUMPTION EXPERIENCES: CONSUMING AND CO-CREATING INTERRELATED STORIES ACROSS MEDIA BY BEHICE ECE ILHAN DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Business Administration in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2011 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Cele C. Otnes, Chair, Co-Director of Research Professor Robert V. Kozinets, Co-Director of Research, York University Professor Kent Grayson, Northwestern University Professor James Hay Associate Professor Tiffany White ABSTRACT Marketers and consumers alike are experiencing immense changes in the way entertainment is conceived, consumed, produced, distributed, and marketed as a result of intensifying socio-cultural, technologic, and economic convergence (Jenkins 2006, Dena 2004). Transmedia storytelling, aesthetic and product of this convergence culture, is the systematic dispersal of narrative elements across multitude of media for the purpose of creating a unified and coordinated consumer experience (Jenkins 2006). To respond to the increasingly cluttered mediascape, producers of entertainment and non-entertainment brands are under pressure to develop engaging experiences for consumers and also to manage brand stories that integrate various media platforms. Transmedia storytelling becomes a relevant and lucrative solution that helps producers achieve these ends. Adapting and extending on the idea of transmedia storytelling and grounding transmedia to the consumer behavior and marketing fields, this dissertation seeks to develop transmedia consumption (TMC) –– transmedia logic –– that focuses on the consumer practices and processes around transmedia narratives. This dissertation is guided by the following research questions: What constitutes transmedia consumption experiences and practices? How do consumers consume and co-create these consumption experiences? The findings detail the key practices, boundaries, and important processes of TMC.

Action No. 97-0160, ordering NRWC to respond to Interrogatory No. 3 and Document Request No. 3, as modified by the Court. INTRODUCTORY COAKMENTS Intemgatory No. 3 and Document Request No. 3 relate to activities from more than four years ago. NRTWC has experienced changes in personnel over those years, and documents may no longer exist, if they ever existed. Nonetheless, “WC, with the assistance of counsel and staff, has conducted a diligent search for documents and facts, and responds on the basis of information so gathered. The Court limited the scope of Interrogatory No. 3 and Document Request No. 3 to the 1992 senatorial candidates, and the Commission, by its attorneys in discussions with “WC counsel, has further limited the scope to the 1992 general election senatorial candidates. Thus, NRTWC’s search has focused on the 1992 general election senatorial candidates. Also, the Commission and NRTWC, in briefing and in discussions between counsel, have agreed that NRTWC may redact documents to delete supporter-identitjing information from documents to be produced, and NRTWC is doing so.

  • Lost E a Ficção Televisiva Transmídia1
    Intercom – Sociedade Brasileira de Estudos Interdisciplinares da Comunicação XXXII Congresso Brasileiro de Ciências da Comunicação – Curitiba, PR – 4 a 7 de setembro de 2009 1 Lost e a Ficção Televisiva Transmídia Afonso de Albuquerque 2 RESUMO: O texto se propõe a discutir a série Lost como um exemplo de ficção televisiva transmídia, tendo em vista o modo como a sua trama e a sua estrutura narrativa se relacionam com a crescente convergência (tecnológica e cultural) que se estabelece entre a televisão e outros meios de comunicação. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Lost, Televisão, Ficção Multiplataforma No dia 22 de setembro de 2004, o vôo 815 da Oceanic Airlines terminou de forma inesperada quando o avião, procedente de Sidney, na Austrália, rumo a Los Angeles se despedaçou sobre uma remota ilha do Pacífico. A despeito da violência do acidente – o avião se partiu em dois pedaços ainda no ar – um grupo de passageiros conseguiu sobreviver e se organizou para esperar um resgate. Em vão. Desta forma teve início Lost, uma das séries de televisão mais marcantes de todos os tempos. Nos episódios que se seguiram, a trama não cessou de ganhar complexidade. Os espectadores foram apresentados ao passado – quase sempre sombrio – dos personagens principais. Vieram a saber que um outro grupo de passageiros também sobrevivera à queda em uma outra parte da ilha. Descobriram indícios de uma ocupação humana anterior, inicialmente na forma de complexas e misteriosas construções e, em seguida, através do contato com um grupo hostil – os “Outros”. Se depararam com fenômenos aparentemente inexplicáveis, como a presença de ursos polares em uma ilha tropical.
