Full textAbstract:
This study examines the factors influencing early paid Over-The-Top (OTT) video streaming market growth in 50 countries. The results of the panel data analysis suggest that Netflix’s market entry, traditional pay TV market size, broadband infrastructure, and OTT platform competition contribute to the early market growth of paid OTT video streaming services, such as subscription video-on-demand (SVOD) services. The results also reveal that the traditional pay TV subscription market and the paid OTT video streaming market initially grow together in many countries. However, the findings also reveal a negative association between the market entry of Netflix and the subscription revenue growth rate of traditional pay TV services. The results of this study suggest industry and policy implications for paid OTT video streaming market growth and the sustainable development of the media industry.

Full textAbstract:
The Indian television industry is transforming via an increasing number of Over-the-Top (OTT) platforms. This shift from broadcast to OTT has given rise to research assessing the impact on the television ecosystem. With the case of Star Network, this study examines how the emergence of live sports streaming has affected the power dynamics in the sports broadcasting ecosphere. This study employs the Critical Political Economy framework to address the following question: How do television-based media conglomerates – and by extension television itself – negotiate the challenge of Internet-based digital media in India? Keeping the focus on sports live-streaming services, we study the transition from Star television network to Disney+ Hotstar, its corresponding OTT platform. We however argue that the Political Economy of Communication holds its ground despite the apparently disruptive promise of web-based platforms. Despite the Internet posing new challenges in terms of distribution networks, media conglomerates find a way to convert their dominance of the television industry into the OTT space.

Full textAbstract:
Until 2010 when Netflix became a reality no one imagined that a DVD rental company would change the entire consumption pattern upside down (Shantharaju S & Vagdevi H S, 2021). The culture it created prompted many to follow the suit including Disney Plus (Disney +), e-commerce tycoon Amazon (Prime), homegrown Alt Balaji, and others. Over-The-Top (OTT) platforms offer everything from the Latin American Narco-history with an addictive dramatic plot, series of belongingness with subjects dealing with nationalism & patriotism, content on sex & lust, to the nauseating portrayal of chauvinism weave an everlasting TV series. Probably, without the infrastructure and user interface, OTT platforms wouldn't have been so popular (Michael Samuel, 2017). With the diverse content and available and affordable technology, thanks to the pandemic there have been a skyrocketing growth of OTT subscribers from 32 million in 2019 to 62 million in 2020 (exchange4media,2020), and still growing strong. The lockdown saw a clear shift from traditional media to OTT platforms (Gupta & Singharia, 2021). Today, India has 40 OTT platforms, and it is one of the fastest-growing OTT markets (PwC Report,2020). With government push to digitization coupled with cheap mobile data, increasing mobile population and most importantly rural penetration of the internet (business insider report, 2021) has all influenced the growth of OTT platforms as well. With two OTT providers in 2012 to 40 plus as of today, the OTT revolution has come a long way in India (NASSCOM, 2020). The induced growth of OTT due to the pandemic has also led to questions on the content that is been viewed on these platforms. A conflict that questions, the content vis-à-vis the crass outright representation of the subjects and their influence. According to industry reports in 2021, students have made the biggest contributions to OTT consumption. It is necessary to understand how these content influences aspects of the individual. Many recent studies (Gupta & Singharia, 2021; Nijahwan & Dahiya, 2021) concentrate the research on emerging consumer consumption patterns and changing behavior and habits. The current research is an empirical study on the growing influence of content among college students in the Mysuru region. The study analyses the psychographic influence of content consumption using a structured questionnaire.

Abstract: Web series and online streaming content has become an integral part of everyday life. Web series and online streaming platforms have seen a great hike in the recent years in India; they have already pretty much replaced the television in western countries, and India is not far behind. Since the last decade, India has also seen a boom in web series and online streaming content produced in the country. The millennials have become glued to the OTT platforms which have led to many big companies like Amazon, Netflix, SonyLIV, Hotstar, zee5, MX Player, Eros Now and a host of like companies to invest heavily in regional content to increase the content variety and diversity. The race to create more content to attract viewers has resulted in major decline of the quality of content or rather has led to compromise of the value-added content in Indian web series on OTT platforms. This research paper consists of analysis of the content of various Indian web series and online steaming content on platforms like YouTube, Amazon, Netflix, SonyLIV, Hotstar, and MX Player etc. This research article examines the language being used in Indian web series with a focus on obscenity and vulgarity. The analysis shows that the content in Indian web series across various OTT platforms irrespective of the genre is obscene, and abusive in terms of the verbal and visual language. The article recommends an in-depth study on the relationship between vulgarity in the online streaming content and its impact on the audience

Full textAbstract:
La pandemia di COVID-19 sarà senza dubbio ricordata come un evento spartiacque nella storia mondiale, che ha avuto un innegabile impatto su diversi aspetti della vita quotidiana e su diversi settori produttivi. Anche l'industria televisiva ha subito gli effetti della pandemia, e nel corso dei mesi si è dovuta più volte adattare alla situazione in costante sviluppo. Con questa tesi si intende analizzare l'impatto della pandemia di COVID-19 su questo settore, offrendo una panoramica delle difficoltà affrontate dalle diverse categorie di programmi durante l'emergenza sanitaria e le tipologie di soluzioni adottate.
Nella prima parte si analizzeranno gli effetti immediati dell'interruzione delle attività lavorative e sociali e il confinamento in casa, quali i cambiamenti nei livelli di ascolti o nei numeri di abbonati a piattaforme streaming. Si rifletterà inoltre sulla centralità della televisione in questo periodo e sulle modalità con cui diversi programmi hanno continuato la produzione a distanza o sono stati creati da zero nell'ottica del distanziamento sociale. Nella seconda parte si analizzerà la graduale ripresa delle normali attività produttive e il modo in cui la realtà della pandemia è stata affrontata serie scripted, oltre alle misure di sicurezza adottate nella ripresa di programmi unscripted. Nella terza parte si prenderanno in considerazione i cambiamenti nella produzione, la distribuzione e il consumo che si sono verificati durante l'emergenza sanitaria e si tenterà di capire in base alle opinioni di studiosi e professionisti del settore quali tra questi saranno con buone probabilità permanenti e cosa questo potrebbe comportare a medio-lungo termine. Nell'ultima parte, infine, si prenderà in considerazione il caso specifico del talk show Che tempo che fa e si analizzeranno le modifiche da esso messe in atto durante i mesi di emergenza, tanto dal punto di vista produttivo quanto da quello dei contenuti.

Full textAbstract:
This study investigates the changing television landscape and consumption habits and the effects on the Swedish public service television(SVT). Recent shifts have amplified the ongoing decline of linear television and were marked by increasing migration of viewers to online video consumption and global streaming services. These new competitors escalate the challenges facing national broadcasters and emphasize the role of having a strong independent public service television that can remain relevant to all its audiences. SVT has been a pioneer in shifting to online and launched its video streaming service SVT Play in 2006. But the service is unable to recuperate the viewership bleeding from SVT linear channels, and reaching younger audiences has never been more challenging. The study presents a literature review and background referring to recent general trends in the television market, to put shifts and disruptions in the Swedish market in a larger context. We also present a thorough background on the Swedish television market focusing on the position of SVT and SVT Play. We discussed dynamics and drivers of recent structural and consumption shifts through in-depth interviews with key personnel from SVT as well as with other experts from different areas within the media and telecom industry. We seek to answer what future challenges and opportunities are for SVT Play and how to deal with those challenges and opportunities. The data collected were analyzed and reported in this study. The main findings indicate a new era ahead of public service heralded by the unprecedented decline of SVT broadcast and the increased consumption divergence in 2019. The study found that SVT Play has a central future role of public service television and should be further empowered to remain agile and relevant, through diverse, differentiated, and personalized offerings, but also through constant engagement with audiences and continuous learning of what they value and demand in a constantly changing media landscape.Denna studie undersöker det föränderliga TV-landskapet och de nya konsumtionsvanornas effekter på svensk public service- TV (SVT). Nyligen har skiftningar intensifierat den pågående minskningen av linjär-TV vilket märkts i den ökande migrationen av TV-tittare till online video-konsumtion och globala streamingtjänster. Dessa nya konkurrenter trappar upp utmaningarna som nationella programföretag ställts inför och betonar vikten av att ha stark och oberoende public service-TV som kan förbli relevant för samtliga målgrupper. SVT har varit pionjärer i övergången till online och lanserade sin streamingtjänst för video, SVT Play, redan 2006. Men tjänsten är oförmögen att hämta upp de förlorade tittarsiffrorna från SVTs linjära TV-kanaler. Samtidigt så har det aldrig tidigare varit svårare att nå de unga målgrupperna. Denna studie presenterar en litteraturgenomgång och bakgrund med referenser till de senaste allmänna trenderna TV-marknad, för att ställa den svenska marknadens förändringar och störningar i ett större sammanhang. Vi presenterar även en grundlig bakgrund av den svensk TV-marknaden med fokus på SVTs och SVT Plays positioner i denna. Vi har resonerat kring dynamiken och drivkrafterna bakom de senaste strukturella förändringarna och förändringarna i konsumtion, genom djupgående intervjuer med nyckelpersoner från SVT samt andra experter inom olika områden av media- och Telecom-industrin. Vi söker svaret till vilka de framtida utmaningarna och möjligheterna för SVT Play är, samt hur man bör handskas med dessa utmaningar och möjligheter. Den insamlade datan har analyserats och rapporteras i denna studie. De huvudsakliga upptäckterna indikerar en ny era för public service, påbörjad av de historiska minskningarna av SVTs sändningar samt den ökande konsumtionsdivergensen under 2019. Studien har funnit att SVT Play besitter en central framtida roll för public service-TV och bör fortsatt vara stärkt i uppgiften att förbli rörlig och relevant, genom varierade, differentierade och personanpassade erbjudanden, men även genom ett konstant engagemang med sin publik och ett kontinuerligt lärande över vad de värderar och önskar i ett ständigt skiftande medielandskap.

Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this thesis was to visualize the 1.7 billion stars released by the European Space Agency, as the second data release (DR2) of their Gaia mission, in the open source software OpenSpace with interactive framerates and also to be able to filter the data in real-time. An additional implementation goal was to streamline the data pipeline so that astronomers could use OpenSpace as a visualization tool in their research. An out-of-core rendering technique has been implemented where the data is streamed from disk during runtime. To be able to stream the data it first has to be read, sorted into an octree structure and then stored as binary files in a preprocess. The results of this report show that the entire DR2 dataset can be read from multiple files in a folder and stored as binary values in about seven hours. This step determines what values the user will be able to filter by and only has to be done once for a specific dataset. Then an octree can be created in about 5 to 60 minutes where the user can define if the stars should be filtered by any of the previously stored values. Only values used in the rendering will be stored in the octree. If the created octree can fit in the computer’s working memory then the entire octree will be loaded asynchronously on start-up otherwise only a binary file with the structure of the octree will be read during start-up while the actual star data will be streamed from disk during runtime. When the data have been loaded it is streamed to the GPU. Only stars that are visible are uploaded and the application also keeps track of which nodes that already have been uploaded to eliminate redundant updates. The inner nodes of the octree store the brightest stars in all its descendants as a level-of-detail cache that can be used when the nodes are small enough in screen space. The previous star rendering in OpenSpace has been improved by dividing the rendering phase into two passes. The first pass renders into a framebuffer object while the second pass then performs a tonemapping of the values. The rendering can be done either with billboard instancing or point splatting. The latter is generally the faster alternative. The user can also switch between using VBOs or SSBOs when updating the buffers. The latter is faster but requires OpenGL 4.3, which Apple products do not currently support. The rendering runs with interactive framerates for both flat and curved screen, such as domes/planetariums. The user can also switch dataset during render as well as render technique, buffer objects, color settings and many other properties. It is also possible to turn time on and see the stars move with their calculated space velocity, or transverse velocity if the star lacks radial velocity measurements. The calculations omits the gravitational rotation. The purpose of the thesis has been fulfilled as it is possible to fly through the entire DR2 dataset on a moderate desktop computer and filter the data in real-time. However, the main contribution of the project may be that the ground work has been laid in OpenSpace for astronomers to actually use it as a tool when visualizing their own datasets and also for continuing to explore the coming Gaia releases.

Full textAbstract:
A modality device can today capture high resolution volumetric data sets and as the data resolutions increase so does the challenges of processing volumetric data through a visualization pipeline. Standard volume rendering pipelines often use a graphic processing unit (GPU) to accelerate rendering performance by taking beneficial use of the parallel architecture on such devices. Unfortunately, graphics cards have limited amounts of video memory (VRAM), causing a bottleneck in a standard pipeline. Multi-resolution techniques can be used to efficiently modify the rendering pipeline, allowing a sub-domain within the volume to be represented at different resolutions. The active resolution distribution is temporarily stored on the VRAM for rendering and the inactive parts are stored on secondary memory layers such as the system RAM or on disk. The active resolution set can be optimized to produce high quality renders while minimizing the amount of storage required. This is done by using a dynamic compression scheme which optimize the visual quality by evaluating user-input data. The optimized resolution of each sub-domain is then, on demand, streamed to the VRAM from secondary memory layers. Rendering a multi-resolution data set requires some extra care between boundaries of sub-domains. To avoid artifacts, an intrablock interpolation (II) sampling scheme capable of creating smooth transitions between sub-domains at arbitrary resolutions can be used. The result is a highly optimized rendering pipeline complemented with a preprocessing pipeline together capable of rendering large volumetric data sets in real-time.

La complexité des mécanismes de transport en nanofiltration (NF) nécessite ledéveloppement d'outils de modélisation fiables permettant de comprendre et d'optimiser lesopérations de séparation en NF.La présente étude comprend deux volets. Le premier porte sur la rétention d'un soluténeutre - le poly(éthylène glycol) à 600 g mol-1 (PEG) - seul et en présence d'ions, par unemembrane organique de NF (polyamide). Les résultats obtenus montrent que la rétention dusoluté neutre chute en présence d'ions et ce, d'autant plus que la concentration du sel estélevée. Ce phénomène ne peut être expliqué par le seul phénomène de déshydratation dusoluté neutre par les ions environnants. Un phénomène supplémentaire de gonflement de porea été mis en évidence et corrélé à la densité de charge membranaire. La contribution des deuxphénomènes à la chute du taux de rejet du PEG a été évaluée pour différents sels à plusieursconcentrations.Le deuxième volet du travail est consacré à (i) l'évaluation de la constante diélectrique desolutions à l'intérieur de nanopores (ep) d'une membrane organique de NF (polyamide) àpartir de mesures de potentiel de membrane et (ii) la validation de cette méthode. Les valeursobtenues s'avèrent être inférieures à celle de la solution externe (effet du confinement) etdiminuer avec l'augmentation de la proportion en ions calcium du mélange (effet structurantdes ions). L'accord entre les constantes diélectriques ep déterminées à partir de mesures depotentiel de membrane et de taux de rejet ionique (mélanges ternaires) valide la cohérence dumodèle de transport utilisé (exclusion stérique, électrique et diélectrique aux interfaces) etmontre que les mesures de potentiel de membrane peuvent être envisagées pour l'évaluationcorrecte de la constante diélectrique à l'intérieur de nanopores

Full textAbstract:
People used to watch television when there were just a few channels and options to choose
from. People also couldn't watch films and television shows according to their own
preference or convenience as they had to stick to the program's scheduling. You weren't
provided with the opportunity to re-watch the slot if you missed it. There were occasions
when we would look in the newspaper for the channel's telecasting schedule. However,
with the advent of OTT services, everything got simple, and users were able to stream
anything they wanted, whenever they wanted. People might alter their entertainment
schedules to fit their work schedules because to OTT.
When people were trapped at home due to the epidemic and the box office was shut down
by Covid-19, Streaming sites came to Bollywood's rescue. During the lockdown, several
on-demand movie streaming platforms noticed a surge in new users. Some platforms have
kept up with the pace even after the lockdown was lifted.
In this study, I'll look at how OTT platforms grew in popularity during the epidemic. This
study will be carried out with the assistance of interviewers from various viewers. It's
evident that since their introduction, OTT platforms have only grown in popularity and
usage. People's consumption patterns have changed as a result of the pandemic, resulting
in a major surge in their popularity.
The aim of this study is to look into the growth of OTT services during the epidemic. To
understand the future potential of OTT platforms, it is necessary to understand the level
to which their popularity grew during the pandemic. True, all such OTT platforms have
only grown in popularity and usage since their launch, but the pandemic has resulted in a
significant boost in their popularity due to the shift in people's consumption patterns.
This study conducted a survey and interviewed three people to assess their views on OTT
platforms, consumption patterns, and comparisons to cinema to evaluate if OTT platforms
were gradually displacing the most popular traditional entertainment medium. People used
OTT more than any other platform, according to research. The majority of them had
noticed a rise in the amount of hours they spent on OTT services and were anticipating
movies being launched on OTT at the same time as they were in theatres. People were
also content to see films on OTT rather than in the theatre. However, for some, it was
determined by the film. This study revealed that OTT platforms have a lot of room to
grow.

Network video streaming OTT has developed rapidly with the advancement of network communication technology, especially since the fourth generation of mobile communication technology 4G has developed by leaps and bounds. In recent years, OTT video streaming media has not only stepped on traditional media in the traditional field, but also in the field of sports broadcasting. The global tens of billions of dollars of sports broadcast market is also a battle for video streaming media operators. Ground. Therefore, e-commerce giant Amazon and social media Facebook, have also invested in OTT streaming media broadcast in sports events. The sports broadcast leader ESPN is also launching its own OTT streaming service ESPN+ in response to the rise of the OTT streaming video platform. Although OTT streaming media leader Netflix has not yet entered the sports broadcast market, it is also eye-catching. This study mainly analyzes the development status and future development of OTT streaming media in the sports broadcast market, and organizes the financial and business information of three major OTT and sports broadcast media in the United States. It analyzes SWOT and 3C theory and provides results related to media body motion. The industry will make reference for the future development of OTT streaming media in the future. The results of the study show that the main participants or potential participants of the three OTT streaming media broadcasts are good at each other, but the challenges are in addition to the traditional cable sports broadcasters and OTT streaming media players, social media, and telecom operators. Even the information industry is a competitor.

In 2016, it was called the first year of OTT (Over-The-Top). Facing the rise of digital convergence trend OTT platform, it brought out new type of audio-visual media impact, enabling Taiwanese consumers to quickly accept the way of video streaming, and have caused a great impact to system operators. This study is aimed at OTT operators who provide services in Taiwan. The three major players compare with the cable TV industry, and test the differences to provide advice to cable TV operators. This study uses OTT operators: Netflix (NetFly), Iqiyi Taiwan Station, CATCHPLAY to compare objects. Providing TV channels ,audio and video content, charging methods and prices, video streaming terminal equipment for OTT operators and cable TV. Comparison of program type ratings and others. The results of this study found that the differences between OTT operators and cable TV are as follows： 1. Content providers: Netflix (NetFly), Iqiyi (Taiwan Station), CATCHPLAY, audio and video content have their own characteristics and advantages. 2. The cable TV price rate specification limit is 600 yuan, but the customer can flexibly purchase the digital value-added premium channel package, which is not subject to the upper limit specification; the OTT operator has the advantage in price, and the customer can only choose the favorite type channel to follow. 3. The cable set-top box (STB) needs to be provided by the cable TV provider, and the OTT operator does not need to bear the cost of the set-top box. 4. OTTs popular ratings data shows that the ratings of drama types and movie-type programs are affected, which has indeed caused the impact of the decline in cable TV households, but the ratings of news-type programs are not affected.

Full textAbstract:
“This content is not available in your country.” Media consumers around the world regularly run into this reminder of geography’s imprint on digital culture. Despite utopian hopes of a borderless digital society in an era of globalization, DVDs, video games, and streaming platforms include digital rights management mechanisms like region codes and IP address detection systems that block media access within certain territories. Although propped up by national and transnational intellectual property regulation, these technologies of “regional lockout” are designed primarily to keep the entertainment industries’ global markets distinct. Beyond this, they frustrate consumers around the world and place certain territories on a hierarchy of global media access. Drawing on extensive research of media-industry strategies, consumer and retailer practices, and media regulation, Locked Out explores regional lockout in DVDs, console video games, and streaming video and music platforms. The book argues that regional lockout has shaped global media culture over the past few decades in three interrelated ways: as technological regulation, media distribution, and geocultural discrimination. As a form of digital rights management, regional lockout builds in limitations on the affordances of digital software and hardware. As distribution, it seeks to ensure that digital technologies accommodate media industries’ traditional segmentation of markets. Finally, as a cultural system, regional lockout shapes and reflects long-standing global hierarchies of power and discrimination.

Fragen der medizinischen Ethik haben mit existentiell herausfordernden Situationen am Lebensanfang, in Krankheit und am Lebensende zu tun. Sie sind deshalb ein herausragender Stoff für Filme. Religionen sind hier ebenfalls mit Sinnangeboten, Beratungen, manchmal auch mit starken Wertungen präsent wie in kaum einem anderen Feld der Ethik. Deshalb ist es naheliegend, Filmkunst, Ethik und Religion miteinander in ein Gespräch zu bringen, das sie oft nur übereinander führen. Das Buch lädt ein zu einer intensiven Beschäftigung mit ausgewählten Kinofilmen, TV-Produktionen und Streaming-Angeboten, an denen sich exemplarisch die Bedeutung von Filmen für die ethische Reflexion, für den gesellschaftlichen Diskurs sowie für die medizinethische Ausbildung und andere Orte der Bildungsarbeit zeigen lässt.

Full textAbstract:
It makes us jump. It makes us scream. It haunts our nightmares. So why do we watch horror? Why do we play it? What could possibly be appealing about a genre that tries to terrify us? Why would we subject ourselves to shriek-inducing shocks, or spend dozens of hours watching a television show about grotesque flesh-eating monsters? Horror offers us a connection to fears that are otherwise unspeakable, even inconceivable, so why do we seek it out? Monstrous Forms offers a theory of horror that works through the genre across a broad range of contemporary moving-image media: film, television, videogames, YouTube, gifs, streaming, virtual reality. This book analyzes our experience of and engagement with horror by focusing on its form, paying special attention to the common ground, the styles, and forms that move between mediums. It looks at the ways that moving-image horror addresses its audiences; the ways that it elicits, or demands, responses from its viewers, players, browsers. Camera movement (or “camera” movement), jump scares, offscreen monsters—horror innovates and perfects styles that directly provoke and stimulate the bodies in front of the screen. Analyzing films including Paranormal Activity, It Follows, and Get Out; videogames including Amnesia: The Dark Descent, Layers of Fear, and Until Dawn; and TV shows including The Walking Dead and American Horror Story, Monstrous Forms argues for understanding horror through its sensational address and dissects the forms that make that address so effective.

Full textAbstract:
Technological evolution and revolution are both driven by the discovery of new functionalities, new materials and the design of yet smaller, faster, and more energy-efficient components. Progress is being made at a breathtaking pace, stimulated by the rapidly growing demand for more powerful and readily available information technology. High-speed internet and data-streaming, home automation, tablets and smartphones are now ‘necessities’ for our everyday lives. Consumer expectations for progressively more data storage and exchange appear to be insatiable. In this context, ferroic domain walls have attracted recent attention as a completely new type of oxide interface. In addition to their functional properties, such walls are spatially mobile and can be created, moved, and erased on demand. This unique degree of flexibility enables domain walls to take an active role in future devices and hold a great potential as multifunctional 2D systems for nanoelectronics. With domain walls as reconfigurable electronic 2D components, a new generation of adaptive nano-technology and flexible circuitry becomes possible, that can be altered and upgraded throughout the lifetime of the device. Thus, what started out as fundamental research, at the limit of accessibility, is finally maturing into a promising concept for next-generation technology.

Full textAbstract:
Ecologies of Resonance in Christian Musicking explores a diverse range of Christian musical activity through the conceptual lens of resonance, a concept rooted in the physical, vibrational, and sonic realm that carries with it an expansive ability to simultaneously describe personal, social, and spiritual realities. In this book, Mark Porter proposes that attention to patterns of back-and-forth interaction that exist in and alongside sonic activity can help to understand the dynamics of religious musicking in new ways and, at the same time, can provide a means for bringing diverse traditions into conversation. The book focuses on different questions arising out of human experience in the moment of worship. What happens if the entry point of a human being experiencing certain patterns of (more than) sonic interaction with the world around them is taken as a focus for exploration? What different ecologies of interaction can be encountered? What kinds of patterns can be traced through different Christian worshiping environments? And how do these operate across multiple dimensions of experience? Chapters covering ascetic sounding, noisy congregations, and Internet live-streaming, among others, serve to highlight the diverse ecologies of resonance that surround Christian musicking, suggesting the potential to develop new perspectives on devotional musical activity that focus not primarily on compositions or theological ideals but on changing patterns of interaction across multiple dimensions between individuals, spaces, communities, and God.

Full textAbstract:
The emergence of authoritarian governments in much of Europe, the British vote to leave the European Union, and widespread political anger in the United States suggest that anxiety and uncertainty now threaten to undermine stable democracies. Decades of stagnant household incomes and growing inequality are casting doubt on the benefits of capitalism. Meanwhile, millions of desperate migrants streaming north out of Latin America, the Middle East, and Africa further jeopardize political stability in the wealthy metropole. We have here an explanation for why the world finds itself in widespread dysfunction. First, there is a dominant culture of possessive individualism. This attitude has fostered political opposition to taxes, to higher wages for vast numbers of workers, and to various programs that would ease the economic burden on beleaguered households. Meanwhile, a culture of managerial capitalism suppresses wages and salaries, embraces automation, and moves jobs overseas. Voters have taken the measure of contemporary capitalism and are unimpressed. Many of the disillusioned have turned to authoritarian braggarts to rescue them from their misery. Xenophobia stalks the land. Escape from this crisis requires that the isolated acquisitive individual rediscover a sense of loyalty to others—as neighbors, as colleagues, and as participants in a shared social process of living rather than merely consuming. Escape also requires that the private firm be reimagined as a public trust in which the economic well-being of employees becomes a central part of its purpose. In the absence of these dual transformations, capitalism as we know it cannot endure.

AbstractThis chapter analyzes the collaboration between documentary film festivals and streaming platforms before and during the Covid-19 pandemic. Our study of collaborative practices revolves around the concepts of reciprocity and strategic alliances, developed within Anthropology and Management Studies. We focus on two pioneer streaming platforms, which are initiatives of documentary distribution created by or with film festivals. In our first case study, DAFilms (originated from an alliance of seven European documentary festivals), we analyze why a video-on-demand (VOD) platform born out of a festival alliance was not necessarily the preferred streaming option for all its partners during the pandemic. In our second case study, Tënk (an initiative born out of the French festival États généraux du film documentaire), we focus on curatorial strategies and explain how the shift to new collaborative models brought up by the pandemic didn’t work in the long term. By contrasting the discourses of the representatives of film platforms and festivals before and during the pandemic, we identify key factors that contributed to the success or failure of their alliances. We identify an increase in exchange between festivals and platforms, and a determination of many festivals to maintain hybrid online and onsite activities in the future, within their own and other VOD platforms.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractThis chapter examines the discourses found in Japanese gay vlog entries to see how such streaming contents are used as sites of contact between gays and straights in Japan. Early internet sites created safe public spaces for sexual minority members to meet and socialize where straights previously seldom had access or were expressly unwelcome. Using a collection of coming out and Q and A videos, the chapter will also explore the use of vlogging discourse for social change in Japan. More recently, sites like YouTube have created new contact spaces where straights are welcomed and can interact with gay content creators more directly. This chapter analyzes the ways in which Japanese gay men construct themselves as well as other gay and straight people around them in these videos. Utilizing membership categorization and indexicality the analysis will show how notions of family and gayness along with associated bound predicates are used to discursively resist heteronormativity. The discourse also shows how these videos focus on the purposes of informing and educating over phatic communication. The analysis will also demonstrate how the concept of internationalization has become semiotically relevant to the gay Japanese male category, constructing an image of masculine interculturality, contrasted against overly feminine mass-mediated stereotypes. Possibilities for further change and social justice in Japan through such sites of contact will also be discussed.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractService learning describes an increasingly established form of teaching and learning at universities combining academic learning with real-world problem solving. While traditional approaches work within existing social systems and, in the worst case, reproduce and perpetuate social problems, critical and transformative approaches aim at systemic changes in social practice, while showing their potential to address sustainability entrepreneurial competences that are key for (future) agents of transformation. This understanding of service learning challenges students and lecturers, and requires a structured, well-thought-out pathway. Our chapter introduces transformative service learning as a promising approach for entrepreneurship (oriented) education. The argumentation for it is competence-oriented while focusing on the abilities that can promote sustainable development. In addition, the chapter addresses the role of the lecturer, which to date has been rarely and very unsystematically examined. The paper also proposes the specific service learning IOOI tool that aims to support lecturers, especially in the early stages of service learning courses, and help streamline programs.

Full textAbstract:
The “Novel streaming potential (SP) and thermal sensor techniques for monitoring water and nutrient fluxes in the vadose zone” project ended Oct. 30, 2015, after an extension to complete travel and intellectual exchange of ideas and sensors. A significant component of this project was the development and testing of the Penta-needle Heat Pulse Probe (PHPP) in addition to testing of the streaming potential concept, both aimed at soil water flux determination. The PHPP was successfully completed and shown to provide soil water flux estimates down to 1 cm day⁻¹ with altered heat input and timing as well as use of larger heater needles. The PHPP was developed by Scott B. Jones at Utah State University with a plan to share sensors with Shmulik P. Friedman, the ARO collaborator. Delays in completion of the PHPP resulted in limited testing at USU and a late delivery of sensors (Sept. 2015) to Dr. Friedman. Two key aspects of the subsurface water flux sensor development that delayed the availability of the PHPP sensors were the addition of integrated electrical conductivity measurements (available in February 2015) and resolution of bugs in the microcontroller firmware (problems resolved in April 2015). Furthermore, testing of the streaming potential method with a wide variety of non-polarizable electrodes at both institutions was not successful as a practical measurement tool for water flux due to numerous sources of interference and the M.S. student in Israel terminated his program prematurely for personal reasons. In spite of these challenges, the project funded several undergraduate students building sensors and several master’s students and postdocs participating in theory and sensor development and testing. Four peer-reviewed journal articles have been published or submitted to date and six oral/poster presentations were also delivered by various authors associated with this project. We intend to continue testing the "new generation" PHPP probes at both USU and at the ARO resulting in several additional publications coming from this follow-on research. Furthermore, Jones is presently awaiting word on an internal grant application for commercialization of the PHPP at USU.

Full textAbstract:
Nowadays, social media, ICT, mobile technologies and applications are increasingly used as tools for communication, interaction, building up social skills and unique learning environments. One of the latest trends observed in education is an attempt to streamline the learning process by applying educational digital games. Despite numerous research data, that confirms the positive effects of digital games, their integration into formal educational contexts is still relatively low. The purpose of this article is to analyze, discuss and conclude what is necessary to start using games as an instructional tool in formal education. In order to achieve this aim, a complex of qualitative research methods, including semi-structured expert interviews was applied. As the result, the potential of educational digital games to give a unique and safe learning environment with a wide spectrum of build-in assistive features, be efficient in specific training contexts, help memorize studied material and incorporate different learning styles, as well as to be individually adaptable, was determined. At the same time, the need for complex approach affecting the administration, IT departments, educators, students, parents, a strong skill set and a wide spectrum of different roles and tasks a teacher carries out in a digital game-based learning class were outlined. In conclusion and as a vector for further research, the organization of Education Design Laboratory as an integral part of a contemporary educational institution was proposed.

We provide the first reliable measure on the size of India’s creative economy, explore the many challenges faced by the creative industries, and provide recommendations to make India one of the most creative societies in the world. India’s creative economy—measured by the number of people working in various creative occupations—is estimated to contribute nearly 8% of the country’s employment, much higher than the corresponding share in Turkey (1%), Mexico (1.5%), the Republic of Korea (1.9%), and even Australia (2.1%). Creative occupations also pay reasonably well—88% higher than the non-creative ones and contribute about 20% to nation’s overall GVA. Out of the top 10 creative districts in India, 6 are non-metros—Badgam, Panipat (Haryana), Imphal (Manipur), Sant Ravi Das Nagar (Uttar Pradesh), Thane (Maharashtra), and Tirupur (Tamil Nadu)—indicating the diversity and depth of creativity across India. Yet, according to the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development, India’s creative exports are only one-tenth of those of the People’s Republic of China. To develop the creative economy to realize its full potential, Indian policy makers would like to (i) increase the recognition of Indian culture globally; (ii) facilitate human capital development among its youth; (iii) address the bottlenecks in the intellectual property framework; (iv) improve access to finance; and (v) streamline the process of policy making by establishing one intermediary organization. India must also leverage its G20 Presidency to put creative economy concretely on the global agenda.

Full textAbstract:
Channel Islands National Park includes the five northern islands off the coast of southern California (San Miguel, Santa Rosa, Santa Cruz, Anacapa, and Santa Barbara Islands) and the surrounding waters out one nautical mile. There are approximately 176 miles of coastline around the islands, about 80% of which is composed of rock. The diversity and undisturbed nature of the tidepools of this rocky coastline were recognized as special features of the islands in the enabling legislation. To conserve these communities unimpaired for future generations, the National Park Service has been monitoring the rocky intertidal communities at the islands since 1982. Sites were established between 1982 and 1998. Site selection considered visitation, accessibility, presence of representative organisms, wildlife disturbance, and safety. This report summarizes the 2018–2019 sampling year efforts (from November 2018 to April 2019) and findings of the Channel Islands National Park Rocky Intertidal Community Monitoring Program. Specific monitoring objectives are 1) to determine the long-term trends in percent cover of key sessile organisms in the rocky intertidal ecosystem, and 2) to determine population dynamics of black abalone (Haliotis cracherodii), owl limpets (Lottia gigantea), and ochre sea stars (Pisaster ochraceus). Objectives were met by monitoring percent cover of core species in target intertidal zones using photoplots and transects, and by measuring size frequency and abundance of black abalone, owl limpets, and sea stars using fixed plots or timed searches. Twelve key species or assemblages, as well as the substrate, tar, have been monitored twice per year at 21 sites on the five park islands as part of the rocky intertidal community monitoring program. Fixed photoplots were used to monitor the percent cover of thatched and acorn barnacles (Tetraclita rubescens, Balanus glandula/Chthamalus spp., respectively), mussels (Mytilus californianus), rockweeds (Silvetia compressa, and Pelvetiopsis californica (formerly Hesperophycus californicus), turfweed (Endocladia muricata), goose barnacles (Pollicipes polymerus) and tar. Point-intercept transects were used to determine the percent cover of surfgrass (Phyllospadix spp.). Information about size distribution (i.e., “size frequency” data) was collected for owl limpets in circular plots. Size distribution and relative abundance of black abalone and ochre sea stars were determined using timed searches. The maximum number of shorebirds and pinnipeds seen at one time were counted at each site. The number of concession boat visitors to the Anacapa tidepools was collected and reported. All sites were monitored in 2018–2019. This was the third year that we officially reduced our sampling interval from twice per year (spring and fall) to once in order to streamline the program and allow for the implementation of additional protocols. Weather conditions during the site visits were satisfactory, but high wind coupled with strong swell and surge limited or prevented the completion of some of the abalone and sea star searches. The percent cover for most key species or assemblages targeted in the photoplots was highly variable among sites. Mussel (Mytilus californianus) cover remained below average at Anacapa and Santa Barbara Islands. Record or near record low abundances for Mytilus were measured at Middle West Anacapa (Anacapa Island), Harris Point (San Miguel Island), Prisoner’s Harbor (Santa Cruz Island), and Sea Lion Rookery (Santa Barbara Island) sites. The only site that appeared to have above average Mytilus cover was Scorpion Rock on Santa Cruz Island. All other sites had mussel cover near or below the long-term mean. Qualitatively, Mytilus recruitment appeared low at most sites. Both rockweed species, Silvetia compressa and Pelvetiopsis californica (formerly Hesperophycus californicus), continued to decrease markedly in abundance this year at the majority of sites compared to combined averages for previous years. Fossil Reef and Northwest-Talcott on Santa Rosa Island, Sea Lion Rookery on Santa Barbara Island, and South Frenchy’s Cove on Anacapa Island were the only sites that supported Silvetia cover that was near the long-term mean. No sites exhibited above average cover of rockweed. Extremely high levels of recruitment for Silvetia and Pelvetiopsis were documented at many sites. Most sites exhibited marked declines in S. compressa abundances beginning in the early 2000s, with little recovery observed for the rockweed through this year. Barnacle (Chthamalus/Balanus spp.) cover fell below the long-term means at all islands except Anacapa, where barnacle cover was slightly above average. Endocladia muricata abundances remained comparable to the grand mean calculated for previous years at Santa Barbara, Santa Cruz, and Santa Rosa Islands, while cover of the alga decreased slightly below the long-term means at Anacapa and San Miguel Islands. Black abalone (Haliotis cracherodii) abundances at the islands remain less than one percent of 1985 population levels. Zero abalone were found throughout the entire site at Landing Cove on Santa Barbara Island and South Frenchy’s Cove on Anacapa Island. Above average abundances relative to the long-term mean generated from post-1995 data were observed at all but five sites. Juvenile black abalone were seen at all islands except Santa Barbara. Ochre sea star (Pisaster ochraceus) populations crashed in 2014 at all monitoring sites due to Sea Star Wasting Syndrome, an illness characterized by a suite of symptoms that generally result in death. The mortality event was widely considered to be the largest mortality event for marine diseases ever seen. Beginning in June 2013, the disease swiftly and significantly impacted P. ochraceus (among other species of sea stars) populations along the North American Pacific coast from Alaska to Baja California, Mexico. By the beginning of 2014, P. ochraceus abundances had declined by >95% at nearly all Channel Islands long-term intertidal monitoring sites, in addition to numerous other locations along the West Coast. At various times during the past decade, extremely high abundances (~ 500 P. ochraceus) have been observed at multiple sites, and most locations have supported >100 sea stars counted during 30-minute site-wide searches. This year, abundances ranged 0–13 individuals per site with all but one site having fewer than 10 P. ochraceus seen during routine searches. Insufficient numbers of sea stars were seen to accurately estimate the size structure of P. ochraceus populations. Only two juveniles (i.e., <50 mm) were observed at all sites combined. Giant owl limpet densities in 2018–2019 were comparable or slightly above the long-term mean at seven sites. Exceptionally high densities were measured at Northwest-Talcott on Santa Rosa Island, Otter Harbor on San Miguel Island, and Willows Anchorage on Santa Cruz Island. The sizes of L. gigantea this year varied among sites and islands. The smallest L. gigantea were observed at Otter Harbor followed closely by Willows Anchorage and Anacapa Middle West, and the largest were seen at Northwest-Talcott. Temporally, the mean sizes of L. gigantea in 2018–2019 decreased below the long-term mean at each island except Anacapa. Surfgrasses (Phyllospadix spp.) are typically monitored biannually at two sites each on Santa Cruz and Santa Rosa Islands. Beginning in 2015, all transects at each of the monitoring sites were only sampled once per year. At East Point on Santa Rosa Island, the conditions were not conducive to sampling the surfgrass transects, but qualitatively, percent cover of surfgrass appeared to be near 100% on all three transects. Relative to past years, cover of surfgrass increased above the long-term mean at Fraser Cove on Santa Cruz Island, fell slightly below the mean at Trailer on Santa Cruz Island, and remained approximately equivalent to the mean at the two Santa Rosa Island sites. Overall, the abundance and diversity of shorebirds in 2018–2019 at all sites appeared similar to observations made in recent years, with the exception of elevated numbers of brown pelicans (Pelecanus occidentalis) observed at East Point on Santa Rosa Island. Black oystercatchers (Haematopus bachmani) were the most ubiquitous shorebird seen at all sites. Black turnstones (Arenaria melanocephala) were not common relative to past years. Pinniped abundances remained comparable in 2018–2019 to historical counts for all three species that are commonly seen at the islands. Harbor seals (Phoca vitulina) were seen in the vicinity of eight sites this year. As in past years, harbor seals were most abundant at Otter Harbor and Harris Point on San Miguel Island. Elephant seals (Mirounga angustirostris) were seen at six sites during the year, where abundances ranged 1–5 individuals per location. California sea lions (Zalophus californianus) were common at Santa Barbara Island; 117 individuals were observed at Sea Lion Rookery. Sea lion abundances were higher than usual at Harris Point (N = 160) and Otter Harbor (N = 82) on San Miguel Island. Relative to past years, abundances this year were considered average at other locations.
