Expanded Course Description
| This class explores the relationship between new media practices, policies, and industries as these are constitutive of social change, focusing on three local cases of China, Korea and Japan in Asia. Over the past decade, there has been an increasing recognition of the new media practices and innovative cultural flows located outside of Western Europe and North America. East Asia, in particular, emerged as a regional media center for the production, distribution and consumption of diverse media services and cultural products that are benefited from the rapid uptake of new media and communication technologies.
We will examine how a range of new media—social media, gaming, mobile communication, and production of music, videos, and software—have been appropriated in each sociocultural context. First, how do particular sociocultural, economic, and political conditions shape the use and appropriation of new media technologies? Second, in particular, how are youth in these countries at the forefront of such appropriation, and how does their age intersect with other axes of identity, such as gender, class, and ethnicity, in the ways they use and understand new media technologies? Through mapping various themes that have emerged along with the uptake of new media technologies, this class aims to speak to the “diversity” of experiences and appropriations and thus contribute to our knowledge of the transformative role of new media in culture and society, which will articulate the process of the heterogeneous formation of global media culture.
