Last session of the day! We both attended Uses and Users, where we learned about far-right social media, climate data visualisation, personal data disclosure, and Twitch streamer toxicity! 📷 So much to learn, so little time! See everyone at the Poster Reception! #SMSociety #Takeover

Can you tell we like talking about content? Session #3 was all about Platformisation! Lots of conversation revolved around Indian beauty creators, platform visibility, journalism labour, and yep...memes. Can't talk about social media without memes. 😆 #SMSociety #Takeover

Demilee here! 👋 My second session was the online vs offline panel and it had all my favourite areas of research! We explored the manosphere, mothers in true crime, divine feminine content, and the divide of Swifties fans on Reddit. 🫡 Can’t wait to see what else today brings! 🧠 #SMSociety

Matt here! For session #2, the highlight for me was hearing about the datafication of apps and content creator views from a labour standpoint. Finally, learning about the imagination of the Web makes me question how I might visualise the internet today? Time for lunch! #SMSociety #SocialMedia

This morning we attended Social Media Cultures and Everyday Life. Presentations captivated the analysis and themes found in feeds, forums, art, and....K-Pop! 😄 Learning a lot and it's only the first session of the day. What sessions did you attend this morning? 🤔 #SMSociety #Takeover
