Digital Culture and Society

Digital Culture and Society

Kate Orton-Johnson

SAGE PUBLICATIONS LTD
2024
sidottu
This book provides a critical introduction to the ways in which digital technologies have enabled new types of interactions, experiences and collaborations across a range of platforms and media, profoundly shaping our socio-cultural landscapes. These discussions are grounded in classical sociological concepts; community, the self, gender, consumption, power and exclusion and inequality, to demonstrate the continuities that exist between sociological studies of ‘real’ world phenomena and their digital counterparts. Examining the various debates around methods in digital sociology in recent years, this book provides an accessible and engaging guide to using methodologies to study digital technology. From the moment we wake up until we go to bed, many of us constantly use digital technologies. Our mobile phones have become our maps, banks, newspapers and entertainment consoles. What's more, they allow us to be constantly connected with the people in our lives. This book will equip you to analyse digital media in your own work. The book offers a broad guide to the various areas of our lives that are impacted by digital technology, from the virtual communities that we form on social media to the impact that digital technology has on our identity through a 'sociology of selfies'. With chapters on leisure, work, privacy and methods, this is an essential introduction for students in the areas of sociology, digital media, and cultural studies. Learning features include: - Annotated further reading in every chapter - Case studies that illustrate theory - Learning objectives and questions throughout - Historical and theoretical context in every chapter

Believing that one thing was real only insofar as it corresponded with others, twentieth-century artist Ray Johnson highlighted the connections between himself and other artists including Andy Warhol, Jackson Pollock, Anni Albers, and especially Marcel Duchamp. This study of Johnson through the lens of Duchamp and the other artists who inspired him entails the investigation of hieroglyphs, codes, action figures, queer theory, and cultural history. By examining Johnson’s collage and Correspondence art in relation to his main inspirations, this critical work brings new light to the study of Johnson and to the dynamic networks of artistic inheritance and correspondence of the twentieth century.

Designing User Interfaces for an Aging Population: Towards Universal Design, Second Edition explores the unique needs of older adults in today’s digital landscape. The authors examine this demographic’s wide-ranging sensory, cognitive, physical, and emotional characteristics, connecting each to the challenges and opportunities older users face with technology. Backed by hundreds of global research studies, the book provides actionable design guidelines to enhance satisfaction and usability for seniors. Updated to reflect the latest advances in AI, robotics, and speech recognition, it offers fresh examples and case studies to keep designers informed about emerging trends. Beyond demographics and design principles, the book highlights common pitfalls in technology that can reduce accessibility for older adults. It discusses strategies for involving seniors directly in research and design, ensuring their voices shape digital innovation. The authors emphasize that older users remain underserved and often overlooked in technology studies, urging designers to broaden their approach. By addressing these gaps, the book helps professionals create more inclusive interfaces that better serve a rapidly growing segment of the technology-using population.

Cowboys, Indians, and the Big Picture

The American West has had an enormous influence on the nation's imagination, including its fine art. From the Western Realists - as epitomized by the Cowboy Artists of America's mission to produce "authentic representations of life in the West" - to the Western Modernists - who introduced not only modern visual languages but a range of political and ethnic perspectives - "Cowboys, Indians and the Big Picture" brings together a range of images to present a more complex picture of the American West. Section one surveys art from John McMullen's collection of accomplished Western Realists; section two presents new images of cowboys to investigate the mythology that has developed around them. Section three features work by Native American artists who seek to express their version of the history of western settlement and to articulate the complexities of living in two postmodern cultures, and the final portion of the catalog presents a changed western landscape, bearing layers of social and environmental history. In making available this body of work, the exhibition displays many Wests, offering an alternative to the debate about which images and styles represent the American West as it was - and is in the present day.
