Storia di Montalbano
2018
Questo libro raccoglie gli scritti che Gianfranco Marrone ha dedicato alla figura del commissario di polizia Salvo Montalbano: personaggio a tutto tondo di intramontabile successo, e modello di riferimento per numerosissimi avatar letterari, televisivi, mediatici. Tali scritti mettono alla prova i modelli d’analisi della semiotica su un ampio spettro ampio di opere e testi in costante dialogo fra loro (romanzi, film, fumetti, pietanze, itinerari turistici…), studiandoli ai loro diversi livelli e dimensioni del senso. Una ricostruzione al tempo stesso puntigliosa e profonda di un universo sociale e antropologico, geografico e ideologico – quello camilleriano e montalbanesco – che fatica a po…
Itsemurhatartunnan taikauskosta: The Moth Diaries (2011) ja 13 Reasons Why (2017)
2018
Artikkeli käsittelee kahden itsemurhaa kuvaavan populaarikulttuurin tapausesimerkin, The Moth Diaries -elokuvan ja 13 Reasons Why -sarjan, ja tabun käsitteen välityksellä itsemurhaan liitettyä tartunnan pelkoa ja tämän pelon ilmenemistä viihteen ja median representaatioita säätelevässä Werther-efektissä. Keväällä 2017 julkaistun kohutun 13 Reasons Why -Netflix-sarjan ensimmäisen kauden vastaanotto ilmentää sosiologien, psykologien ja kansanterveystieteilijöiden tunnetuksi tekemää Werther-efektiä, median välittämäksi pelättyä itsemurhatartuntaa. Kanadalainen kauhudraama The Moth Diaries (2011) taas käsittelee sisällössään vanhemmalta lapselle periytyvää itsemurhatartuntaa vampyyrin hahmon vä…
“Congratulations, you’re on TV!”: Middle-space performances of live tweeters during the FIFA World Cup
2018
Social television has transformed the traditional role of the television viewers by providing ‘ordinary people’ access to the public stage. This article describes how public access to television affected the dialogues of Finnish tweeters on Twitter during the massive media event of the FIFA World Cup. Through the lens of digital conversation analysis, the study shows how the media publicity of tweets changed the direction of the interaction between tweeters and transformed their roles vis-à-vis the television show, making one of them into a ‘media flasher’ and the others viewers of his or her performance. The publicity was constructed as important through noticings, congratulations, and com…

Leveraging Users' Likes in a Video Streaming P2P Platform
2014
This paper investigates how a p2p television platform can take advantage of the presence of frequent channel viewers to grant them a more satisfying service than to less regular spectators. The idea we explore is to learn beforehand about the users' interests, in order to cluster them in groups that display different behaviors; then, the neighborhood creation strategy and video chunk scheduling algorithm of the overlay is altered, with the aim of serving frequent spectators in a privileged manner, providing them with a faster access to the selected channel without overly penalizing less habitual customers. An analytical model is developed, to capture the difference in startup delay that the…

Framing War and the Nonhuman in Science-Fiction Television: The Affective Politics of V
2020
This article investigates how war between humans and aliens is framed in the original and reimagined versions of the SF television series V and the affective responses and ethical considerations that these frames evoke. Inspired by the work of Judith Butler and Sarah Ahmed and by posthumanist thinking, I analyse how SF television takes part in the cultural formation of “livable lives” for both human and nonhuman beings. It is argued that the kinds of violence that art or the media, including fiction, represent matter for the formation of ethical and political responses to violence. peerReviewed
