Jacek's fascinating work covers history & present of devices producing/re-producing voices & their social relevance; highlights challenges created by contemporary voice-catching & 'listening-in' technologies often led by hegemonic control logic; looks into artistic practice as voices of resistance

Much needed work indeed by @emmaronngren.bsky.social & Göran Svensson - v relevant to @goranbolin.bsky.social & other great colleagues working on return of propaganda paradigm; calls for further analysis of not only taken-4-granted meanings but also 'conceptual flipsiding' of propaganda as concept

021

Uppsala University Media & Communications Programme @uumediacomms.bsky.social · 13/12/2024

In their paper, @emmaronngren.bsky.social & Göran discuss concept of 'propaganda' while looking into its historical and still persistent relevance and viability - but while also questioning possibilities for its potential abandonment due to complexity of contemporary media & communication realities

Alexandra points to fascinating dynamics of Bulgarian media landscape post-1989 - when during post-communist transition mis-representations of technology emerged & were recontextualised to eventually hegemonically contest convergence/divergence of Bulgarian media vis-a-vis 'Western' models
