This is also to say, that perception of the web – present and past – is shaped and governed by the media we and our machines perceive it with. So with what media do we archive it? Recording media is
This thesis explores the affective qualities in a set of Instagram stories juxtaposing photos of the pre- and after 1979 Iranian revolution protests. It poses the central question: ‘How can the power of photographic images in an era of social media be elucidated based on theories of affect?’ By asking this, another subsequent question arises: ‘How is an affective reading of a type of material of m

Popular Abstract in Swedish Under 1900-talet förändrades musiklivets villkor i grunden. Bruket av nya elektroniska ljudmedier innebar att musik kunde framföras utan musikers faktiska närvaro. En av konsekvenserna var att ”levande musik” myntades som begrepp. Såväl fackföreningar som proggaktivister och kulturpolitiker ville försvara den levande musiken mot dess förmenta motsats, ”mekanisk musik”. As indicated by the subtitle – “legislation, sound media and the defence of live music” – this thesis explores the intersections of politics and technology, economy and aesthetics. It concerns the changing preconditions for the commodification of music during the 20th century, caused by the use of loudspeakers and radio broadcasting, primarily in Sweden. It was around 1930 that “live music” (leva

The fact that Jane Austen composed and edited her novels during two eventful decades in Britain’s history excites an interest to investigate if this has affected the creation of her characters. This thesis explores whether Austen’s heroes develop in accordance with a shift in masculine ideals that can be discerned around the turn of the nineteenth century. The masculine ideal for gentlemen can be

Uppsatsen behandlar den kinesiska dagstidningen Referensnyheter och med utgångspunkt från denna, det sätt på vilket Kinas politiska ledning genom nyhetsbyrån Xinhua förmedlade svenska nyheter om Kina till kinesiska läsare år 1966. Uppsatsen visar att Sverige och svenska medier sannolikt spelat en roll i den interna maktkampen inom KKP gällande propagandasystemet. Därmed synliggörs dels ett mediefeThe purpose of the thesis emanates from the Chinese daily newspaper Reference News and the way the Chinese political leadership through the news agency Xinhua selectively disseminated Swedish news about China to a domestic audience in the year 1966. The thesis shows that Sweden and Swedish media probably played a role in the internal struggle for power within the CCP regarding the propaganda syste
