Rearticulating the idea of manosphere. Whatsapp groups as digital idioculture
2021
This paper rearticulates the definition of the manosphere by considering everyday male digital media practices as part of a series of peripheral manospheres, connected, often without a clear reference, with the more articulated galaxy that makes up what we now call the manosphere (Ging 2019). The work focuses on homosocial practices between adolescents (Flood 2008) and how they perform and create masculinity (Mac an Ghaill 1994; Frosh, Phoenix & Pattman 2002) inside private WhatsApp groups composed of (heterosexual) guys.
Proximité/distance comme catégories d'analyse pour la communication médiée par ordinateur : l'exemple de Twitter en allemand
2019
Doctoral; Les nouvelles technologies de communication (Schmitz 2004) – des sms d’antan aux messages snapchat d’aujourd’hui en passant par les réseaux sociaux devenus plus traditionnels comme Facebook – ont changé le rapport du locuteur/scripteur à la face matérielle de l’échange linguistique (Dürscheid/Frick 2016) ainsi que le résume, pour l’allemand, le titre de Lobin (2018), digital und vernetzt – das neue Bild der Sprache. A la suite des nombreux travaux portant sur l’écriture sms (par exemple Reinkemeyer 2013) ou encore du projet Whats’up Switzerland (Dürscheid 2018a, 2018b), la plateforme de microblogging Twitter attire de plus en plus l’attention des linguistes en tant que forme de Co…

Virtuaalisesti läsnä : perheen merkitysten rakentuminen WhatsApp-perheryhmässä
2018
Tarkastelen tutkielmassani perheensisäistä viestintää WhatsApp-pikaviestipalvelun perheryhmässä. Kuvaan ryhmän viestintää ja pohdin, mitä ryhmä jäsenilleen merkitsee ja miten perheen merkitykset ryhmässä rakentuvat. Teoreettisesti lähden ajatuksesta, että perheensisäinen viestintä on arkinen käytäntö, ja että perhe muodostuu juuri arkisissa käytännöissä. Sovellan tutkimuksessa Shoven, Pantzarin ja Watsonin (2012) kehittämää käytäntöteoriaa. Sen mukaan käytännöt rakentuvat materiaalista, kompetenssista sekä merkityksistä ja käytännöstä voi muodostua elinvoimainen, jos se palkitsee käyttäjäänsä sisäisesti, jos sillä on yhteys tai juuria muihin käytäntöihin ja jos se liittyy käyttäjälleen merk…
