Dear All,<br>ups, here with the email address from the sender.<br>I will forward this request, since you as media experts might have an answer.<br>Best wishes,<br>Andrea<br><br>Dear all,<br>
<br>
I have searched my Diaspora.fi archives but this did not yield any
results, therefore I'm directing my question to the full audience: I'm
trying to get an overview of critical studies of internet cultural
practices that have employed the lens of affectivity.<br>
<br>
I'm looking at YouTube video consumption of minority youths myself, and
throughout the interviews emotional attachments to for instance
diasporic materials were foregrounded. I'm trying to gauge the meanings
of these processes and I'm starting to believe the recent critical work
on affectivity might be a good entry point.<br>
<br>
Feminist/critical theory/post-colonial/anti-<blockquote class="gmail_quote">race/migration/queer work on affectivity & technologies is especially welcome.<br>
<br>
I will post back to the list an overview of responses.<br>
<br>
Kind regards,<br>
<br>
Koen.<br>
