I examine how song and dance – sites of aesthetic difference within the musical – can warp time and enable marginalized and semi-marginalized fans to imagine different ways of being in the world. Musical numbers can complicate a linear, developmental plot by accelerating and decelerating time, foregrounding repetition and circularity, bringing the past to life and projecting into the future, and physicalizing dreams in a narratively open present. These excesses have the potential to contest naturalized constructions of historical, progressive time, as well as concordant constructions of gender, sexual, and racial identities. While the musical has historically been a rich source of identification for the stereotypical white gay male show queen, this project validates a broad and flexible range of non-normative readings.

Social media uses web-based technologies to turn communication into interactive dialogues. Andreas Kaplan and Michael Haenlein define social media as "a group of Internet-based applications that build on the ideological and technological foundations of Web 2.0, which allows the creation and exchange of user-generated content."[1] Businesses also refer to social media as consumer-generated media (CGM). Social media utilization is believed to be a driving force in defining the current time period as the Attention Age. A common thread running through all definitions of social media is a blending of technology and social interaction for the co-creation of value. Distinction from industrial media People gain information, education, news, etc., by electronic media and print media. Social media are distinct from industrial or traditional media, such as newspapers, television, and film. They are relatively inexpensive and accessible to enable anyone (even private individuals) to publish or access information, compared to industrial media, which generally require significant resources to publish information.

  • The Social Media Blackbook for Photographers
    The Social Media Blackbook for Photographers Last revision: Jan 30, 2015 By Eric Kim So why did I start to write this book? Well, I think I have been blessed with “skills” in social media– and I wanted to put together all the information I personally knew regarding social media (in order to help my fellow photographers). Here is a brief outline of what topics I wish to cover in the book: Chapter 1: Why social media? Chapter 2: What is social media? Chapter 3: The importance of creating value in social media Chapter 4: How to gain more followers Chapter 5: The importance of engagement in social media Chapter 6: Common mistakes in social media Chapter 7: Social media strategies, tips, techniques Chapter 8: Conclusion Chapter 1: Why social media? So the first question you might be thinking to yourself is this: why is social media relevant and how can it help me as a photographer? Honestly at the end of the day– you don’t really “need” social media. Social media is just another way to publish your work, market yourself as a photographer, and to get your work out there, get recognized, and get people to follow you. I have been fascinated with social media the last 10 years of my life– ever since I was 16 years old and started my first “blog” on Xanga. I was fascinated by the idea that I could write down my thoughts and share it with (potentially) millions of people out there. My thoughts have changed and evolved regarding social media over the years.

  • Facebook: an Analysis of Selected Central Photos in Fifty States
    1 Alcohol, Sex and Illegal Activities: An Analysis of Selected Facebook Central Photos in Fifty States Literature Review Social networking sites are a relatively recent phenomenon that allows for the electronic socialization of friends via an online medium. Numerous sites including Friendster, Hot or Not, MySpace, Xanga, Facebook, etc. are hosts to social networking and all are similar in structure. Kendall (2002) likens online public communities to textual virtual realities that give people the “feeling of being present together in a social space” (p. 5). In fact, according to Kendall (2002), the online spaces that provide forums for social networking can also be viewed as physical spaces because pictures and video clips of other people and places are often included and can be seen by remote users and when users connect to these sites, “they in some sense enter a social, if not a physical, space” (p. 6). The basic premise of social networking sites is the allowance for profile posting that connects via links with friends on the system and because the nature of this type of electronic communication is asynchronous, it is alluring to teens and young adults, whose primary electronic mode of conversation with friends is instant messaging (boyd, 2006). Facebook, a free social networking service developed in 2004 and originally designed for college students (but has since been expanded to include high schools) is now operating at over 2000 universities in primarily English-speaking countries across the world and has nearly 5.9 million users (Buckman, 2005). Essentially, Facebook is an electronic forum in which students (also faculty, alumni, and employers) share photos and personal information, gossip, join groups of friends, and flirt with one another 2 (Buckman, 2005).
