Your Ad Here
Author: Michael Serazio

ISBN: 0814724590
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 238
Book Description
2015 Susanne K. Langer Award for Outstanding Scholarship, Media Ecology Association 2013 Book of the Year, Visual Communication Division, National Communication Association Amidst the profound upheavals in technology, economics, and culture that mark the contemporary moment, marketing strategies have multiplied, as brand messages creep ever deeper into our private lives. In Your Ad Here, an engaging and timely new book, Michael Serazio investigates the rise of “guerrilla marketing” as a way of understanding increasingly covert and interactive flows of commercial persuasion. Digging through a decade of trade press coverage and interviewing dozens of agency CEOs, brand managers, and creative directors, Serazio illuminates a diverse and fascinating set of campaign examples: from the America’s Army video game to Pabst Blue Ribbon’s “hipster hijack,” from buzz agent bloggers and tweeters to The Dark Knight’s “Why So Serious?” social labyrinth. Blending rigorous analysis with eye-opening reporting and lively prose, Your Ad Here reveals the changing ways that commercial culture is produced today. Serazio goes behind-the-scenes with symbolic creators to appreciate the professional logic informing their work, while giving readers a glimpse into this new breed of “hidden persuaders” optimized for 21st-century media content, social patterns, and digital platforms. Ultimately, this new form of marketing adds up to a subtle, sophisticated orchestration of consumer conduct and heralds a world of advertising that pretends to have nothing to sell.

Games of Empire
Author: Nick Dyer-Witheford
Publisher: U of Minnesota Press
ISBN: 1452942706
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 425
Book Description
In the first decade of the twenty-first century, video games are an integral part of global media culture, rivaling Hollywood in revenue and influence. No longer confined to a subculture of adolescent males, video games today are played by adults around the world. At the same time, video games have become major sites of corporate exploitation and military recruitment. In Games of Empire, Nick Dyer-Witheford and Greig de Peuter offer a radical political critique of such video games and virtual environments as Second Life, World of Warcraft, and Grand Theft Auto, analyzing them as the exemplary media of Empire, the twenty-first-century hypercapitalist complex theorized by Michael Hardt and Antonio Negri. The authors trace the ascent of virtual gaming, assess its impact on creators and players alike, and delineate the relationships between games and reality, body and avatar, screen and street. Games of Empire forcefully connects video games to real-world concerns about globalization, militarism, and exploitation, from the horrors of African mines and Indian e-waste sites that underlie the entire industry, the role of labor in commercial game development, and the synergy between military simulation software and the battlefields of Iraq and Afghanistan exemplified by Full Spectrum Warrior to the substantial virtual economies surrounding World of Warcraft, the urban neoliberalism made playable in Grand Theft Auto, and the emergence of an alternative game culture through activist games and open-source game development. Rejecting both moral panic and glib enthusiasm, Games of Empire demonstrates how virtual games crystallize the cultural, political, and economic forces of global capital, while also providing a means of resisting them.

Transforming Newsrooms

Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 255
Book Description
Transforming Newsrooms offers a practical guide to navigating structural and culture change for news organizations facing economic disruption in today’s rapidly changing media landscape. Even when the need for change is obvious, the best ideas and intentions are often not followed by successful execution. This book offers a road map for understanding the obstacles to change in news organizations and how to overcome them. Providing a detailed overview of the ways in which news processes and routines are being fundamentally altered to meet new demands for multimedia, interactivity, and immediacy, the book offers tips to help news organizations better serve communities by understanding what information people need and how they want to engage and collaborate. The book also features a variety of case studies and examples from news organizations of all kinds, including a 10-year in-depth investigation of the Christian Science Monitor, the first national news organization to stop its daily presses for a digital report. Transforming Newsrooms is an invaluable resource for students and media professionals alike, demonstrating how to make research on organizational change actionable and help build a more equitable journalism model that will survive and thrive when we need it most.

Gry Imperium. Globalny kapitalizm i gry wideo

Book Description
PRZEKŁAD – Krzysztof Abriszewski, Paweł Gąska, Adrian Zabielski REDAKCJA NAUKOWA ORAZ NAUKOWE OPRACOWANIE PRZEKŁADU – Krzysztof Abriszewski i Paweł Gąska Gry wideo są modelowymi mediami zarówno Imperium, jak i niektórych sił, które się mu sprzeciwiają – taka teza przyświeca Grom Imperium, książce czerpiącej garściami z dzieł Micheala Hardta, Antonia Negriego, Michela Foucualta, Gillesa Deleuza i Felixa Guattariego. Jest to pierwsze takie dzieło, w którym autorzy, za pomocą narzędzi współczesnej myśli krytycznej, przyglądają się grom wideo w kontekście krążenia kapitału, kompleksu wojskowo-przemysłowego czy wyzysku pracowników kognitywnych. Krytyka jest tu rzetelna, napisana przystępnym językiem, nie popada nigdy ani w bezpodstawną panikę moralną, ani w przesadny technooptymizm. W tekście utrzymano równowagę między teorią a empirycznymi przykładami (wśród których znajdują się choćby Full Spectrum Warrior, World of Warcraft, seria Grand Theft Auto czy konsola Sony Playstation). Gry Imperium to książka dla szerokiego grona odbiorców. Krytycy neoliberalnego kapitalizmu znajdą kolejne przykłady jego destrukcyjnego wpływu. Kulturoznawcy i groznawcy poznają nową perspektywę, z której można spoglądać na gry wideo. Wreszcie gracze będą mogli w przystępnej formie przeczytać o jasnych i ciemnych stronach ważnego dla nich medium. Prezentowana książka otwiera nową serię wydawniczą Kultura Współczesności, która ma podjąćtrudne zadanie zrozumienia współczesnej kultury w ciekawy sposób. Osoby pracujące nad przekładem łączą własne zaplecze teoretyczne z pracą empiryczną. Istotne jest także, by prace tego rodzaju zawierały element krytyczny, który pomoże wydobyć wielowymiarowość otaczającego nas świata. Obecność tych trzech warunków jest ważna o tyle, że żaden z nich z osobna nie oferuje satysfakcjonujących efektów podczas badania teraźniejszości, razem jednak dają szansę ukazania jej w sposób zaskakujący, nowy i inspirujący. Ufamy, że każda z publikowanych pozycji wniesie swój wkład w rozumienie kultury naszych czasów. Drugą planowaną pracą w serii jest przekład książki A Casual Revolution: Reinventing Video Games and Their Players Jespera Juula.
