‘I shared the joy’: sport-related social support and communality on Instagram
2020
The popularity of sharing photographs on digital platforms has increased significantly due to the communicative affordances of mobile media and the emergence of photo-sharing applications, such as Instagram. In this paper, we examine how social support and communality can be built and reinforced through digital visual communication. We focus especially on photo sharing in the context of recreational climbing and trail running. In a qualitative study with Finnish climbers and runners, we asked what meanings sports practitioners ascribe to the practice of sharing and observed how they communicate these meanings through photographs. The results indicate that different types of visual content b…
A Modern-Day Diary : Notes for Future Humans
2021
Abstract Time and being can be seen as a space. A modern-day diary is a way of exploring that space or state of being. Outlining and shaping it requires word, image and imagination. The question is framed cultural-philosophically, and the mode of writing is poetic essayism. Otherwise, the creative untangling and differentiation of the poetics of lived space is not possible. After all, the goal is to combine science and art and weave them into the same reflective fabric. The essential aspects include thoughts about the fullness and filling of something, about its fulfilment. Then the present moment is not seen as marking a boundary in just one direction: it is not just an endpoint of the pas…
Kansakunnan nykykuvat : narratiivinen analyysi suomalaisesta maisemasta kansallisena visuaalisena tilana
2010
Tutkielmassa tarkastellaan, miten kansallisesti määrittyneet, perinteiset suomalaisen maiseman visuaalisen esittämisen tavat suhteutuvat visuaalisiin representaatioihin nykysuomalaisista maisemista, ja millä tavoin nykysuomalaisten maisemien visuaalisen esittämisen tapa eroaa niistä. Lisäksi pohditaan, millaista voisi olla suomalaisen maiseman kansallinen visuaalinen esittäminen nykypäivän lähtökohdista. Kysymystä innoittaa pohdinta siitä, että suomalaisen maiseman kansalliset visuaalisen esittämisen tavat vastaavat etenkin nykyisin harvoin Suomea todellisena visuaalisena ympäristönä, ja että niitä suomalaisen kansakunnan kuvittajina kyseenalaistetaan harvoin. Tutkimusaineistona käytetään s…
The organizational use of online stock photos: The impact of representing senior citizens as eternally youthful
2018
The digital divide due to age is declining quickly. But this does not necessarily mean that the willingness to use stock photos depicting older people accompanying digital information is the same among all senior citizens. Three research questions are at the core of this paper: (1) To which extent can various senior citizens (women and men, younger old and older old, living alone or together, full of vitality or fragile) identify with online stock photos of older people accompanying information about pensions, income, health and housing?, (2) Which are the connotations of the visual signs used in such stock photos? and (3) What are the policy implications for organizations aiming at offerin…

The Many Faces of Turku : An Essayistic Study of Urban Travel
2020
What does it mean to take a photographic, imaginary, or fictional journey to some destination? How does indirect observation of the object differ from direct observation? What are they like, the immediate and the mediated Turku? Which of them is more real or more authentic? Turku is Finland’s most poetic city. It is also the most European of our cities. As the flâneur saunters along the banks of the River Aura, he traverses several centuries. The murmur of yesteryear is to be heard in the old buildings and in the foliage of the time-honoured trees. Here is the cradle, the first home of Finnish civilization. The philosopher-poet is able to see into the essence of a city: he has the patience …

This is not a manipulation : authentic bodies in digital image
2014
Tämä kaksiosainen tutkimus rakentaa ensimmäisessä osassa teoreettista välineistöä digitaalisen valokuvan ja autenttisen ruumiin käsittelemiseen yhdistämällä Michell Foucaultin ja Judith Butlerin ajatuksia. Toisessa osassa tätä välineistöä sovelletaan Intelligent Life lehden kansikuvaa käsittelevään tapaustutkimukseen, jossa kansikuvan alleviivattua digitaalista muokkaamattomutta käsitellään performatiivisen autenttisuuden näkökulmasta. Autenttisen määrittelemisen ja käytön kontrolli on tutkimuksen keskeinen teema. Foucault ja Butler yhdistyvät näkemykseksi, jonka mukaan autenttinen rakentuu teoista jotka performoivat autenttista. Autenttisen ja epäautenttisen välisen rajan hämärtäminen digi…
