Media Ethnography

Pandemi Covid-19 merupakan peristiwa baru yang dialami oleh seluruh masyarakat Indonesia dan juga dunia. Pandemi ini muncul dengan pola dan masalah baru yang memengaruhi perilaku sosial manusia sebagai individu dan masyarakat. Informasi merupakan hal penting yang harus diketahui oleh manusia untuk menghadapi perubahan pola dan masalah yang terjadi. Di era pandemi ini, manusia aktif berinteraksi di media sosial sebagai bentuk pelarian dari kebijakan pelarangan interaksi fisik untuk mengurangi penularan virus. Interaksi yang terjadi antarmanusia merupakan bentuk saling berbagi pengalaman dan pengetahuan yang dimiliki untuk kepentingan manusia itu sendiri. Bagaimana ini dijelaskan? interaksi sebagai perilaku sosial harus dimaknai lebih dalam sebagai proses manusia untuk mencari pengetahuan dan pengalaman yang memiliki maksud dan tujuan di dalamnya. Tujuan ini sebenarnya untuk memastikan bahwa manusia itu sendiri memiliki pengetahuan untuk menghadapi perubahan yang terjadi akibat munculnya pandemi Covid-19. Metode social media ethnography digunakan untuk melihat proses interaksi di media sosial secara terus menerus hingga akhirnya manusia dapat membuktikan bahwa dirinya memiliki kemampuan dan pengetahuan untuk memahami dan berperilaku di era pandemi Covid-19. Media sosial Twitter digunakan untuk melihat interaksi yang terjadi antarnetizen Indonesia terkait kejadian Covid-19, khususnya vaksinasi Covid-19 yang dilakukan di Indonesia. Interaksi berulang yang dilakukan membentuk bukti diri yang digunakan untuk mengonfirmasi dan mengamati peristiwa dengan lebih baik dengan pengetahuan sebelumnya. Pengetahuan ini merupakan bentuk acuan yang digunakan manusia untuk bertindak ketika menghadapi peristiwa tertentu, dalam hal ini menanggapi setiap peristiwa selama pandemi Covid-19.

Innovative Method

There is a pressing need to facilitate sensitive conversations between people with differing or opposing views. On video-sharing app TikTok, the diverse experiences of donor-conceived people and recipient parents sit uneasily alongside each other, coalescing in hashtags like #donorconceived. This article describes a method ‘Situated Talk’ which uses TikToks to facilitate a reflexive encounter, drawing on three areas of scholarship: media ethnography and elicitation, researcher reflexivity and duoethnography/collaborative autoethnography. We describe how we, as a donor-conceived adult (Giselle) and a queer woman who would need donor sperm to have a child (Clare), employed TikToks from #donorconceived as prompts to facilitate a sensitive conversation and elicit situated insights. We explore three central insights from applying our method: (1) discomfort as a productive tension; (2) unresolved dilemmas; and (3) discovering parallels in experience. Using TikToks as stimuli, ‘Situated Talk’ contributes an innovative method for generating grounded social media insights.

This paper is based on a research study designed to explore how adolescents, in situations of political polarization, deploy online networks to articulate, negotiate, and enact their political and religious identities. Based on social media ethnography tracing the online engagements of 44 high school students over a period of eighteen months, and supplemented with in-depth interviews conducted in their village communities, this study explores why social media networks emerge as ideological niches frequented by students to enact their participation as members of their respective religious communities. It suggests that in situation of experienced political polarization and discrimination, students use social media affordances to replicate their offline socio-political and religious engagements onto their virtual spaces and in the process reinforce their radical religious identities.

Expression Of Emotions

Migration for unaccompanied refugee youth is an emotionally complex process involving mediated experiences and expressions of emotions and affect. This article draws upon social media ethnography conducted with young refugees from African and Middle Eastern countries living in Europe. The participants’ emotional practices were explored through the multimodal analysis of content they shared on Facebook. The findings highlight how the young refugees performed multifaceted yet interconnected emotional practices. These emotional practices potentially assisted their negotiation of emotional losses and gains resulting from migration. The online mediated emotionality, however, cannot be fully comprehended through the reductionist lenses of binary oppositions such as losses and gains, presence and absence, or positive and negative emotions. This article shows that unaccompanied refugee youth’s experience and expression of emotions online are influenced by more than their migration experience, and that their interconnected nature and complexity need to be considered.

Media Practices

Social media practices and technologies are often part of how ethnographic research participants navigate their wider social, material and technological worlds, and are equally part of ethnographic practice. This creates the need to consider how emergent forms of social media-driven ethnographic practice might be understood theoretically and methodologically. In this article, we respond critically to existing literatures concerning the nature of the internet as an ethnographic site by suggesting how concepts of routine, movement and sociality enable us to understand the making of social media ethnography knowledge and places.
