Social Media Cultures

DSMC001

This subject introduces students to a range of ways of critically making sense of the internet and social media. The focus of the subject is, on the one hand, on the interaction designs that empower digital connectivity, and, on the other hand, the way different cultures are responding to those interaction designs. Though the subject exposes students to critical frameworks for interrogating online cultures, their own experiences using these platforms are essential to how we, together, make sense of 'social media cultures'.
