With the rapid development of new media technology, many people are “cutting the cords” and viewing television through Internet-based video services via streaming or downloading. This study aims to better understand and contextualize this phenomenon through investigating Korean transient migrants’ television-viewing practices. Through forty qualitative interviews and employing the framework of the domestication theory perspective, this article examines how these deterritorialized individuals who experience dislocation make home through cord-cutting practices. By making use of the Internet and delivery technologies/interfaces legally and illegally, Korean transient migrants go beyond territorial limitations and make home materially, feel home affectively, and connect home relationally in their diasporic space. Moreover, the study debunks some utopian ideas about online audiences and shows what remains fixed in terms of transnational postcable culture. I argue that the article provides many insights into investigating contemporary television audiences and suggest a novel approach to studying migrant media practices.

The rapid development of new media industry has not only changed the social network, but also set off a wave of change in many fields. At present, the new media industry has spread all over the society, and also caused scholars to think about the innovative reform of education.. The continuous progress of network technology has changed the learning and life style of college students, which not only broadens the channels for students to obtain outside information, but also strengthens the communication between students and teachers, and brings teachers and students closer together. As an important way to guide students' value orientation and cultivate students' discernment ability, teachers need to keep up with the development of new media, actively innovate educational methods, and also be alert to the challenges brought by new media technology to ensure the effectiveness of ideological education. This paper analyses the opportunity dilemma faced by ideological and political education in the context of new media, and proposes an effective path for education.

Empirical Material

Media users increasingly express ambivalence about their own media consumption, often related to ubiquitous media technology such as the smartphone and social media. In order to understand the growing trend of disconnection as a cultural and social phenomenon, we conducted an analysis of the digital detox inspired camp for grownups, Underleir, which has been arranged in Norway annually since 2014. The main empirical material stems from a field study of the camp Underleir in 2019 where we conducted participatory observation on a four-day field trip. Online material about the camp from the inception in 2014 to the sixth installment in 2019 was also included. The framework for this analysis is media domestication theory with special attention to the concept reverse domestication. In contrast to the domestication process where new media technology is "tamed", reverse domestication implies cognitive processes and practical strategies involved when distancing from media technology. Underleir illustrates how practical, social, and normative aspects may be interwoven when media use is reversed or altered. Normatively speaking, the digital detox experience was tied to broader sets of values, including an aim for a more creative, authentic life and a quest for mental wellbeing and the ability to focus. Many participants stated that the opportunity to engage in creative activities, and to be social in a friendly setting, was just as important as the absence of media.

As media technology advances, and with increasingly rapid development, there has been an unprecedented growth in the number of new media platforms emerging in China—and throughout the world—that are changing the procedures of how news is assembled and disseminated by effectively and efficiently adopting user-generated content that has injected new blood into the very nature of journalism. While essentially this is encouraging the productive use of social media platforms, it is also having an impact on users, transforming vast numbers into what are now recognized as “netizen journalists.” This leads us to inquire just how the journalistic outputs of short video platforms of such media outfits like Pear Video and Kwai are framed and also to explore how the roles of the “ordinary” users of such platforms are now defined by their participation in the actual production of news and information. This research aims to contribute to the many discussions on the above questions based on the journalistic study on three different news platforms: Xinhua News Agency’ as adopted and adapted content from Kwai, Kwai Insight, and Pear Video.

This chapter begins with a quasi-historical overview of dominant mortuary practices and rituals. This overview seeks to connect new media practices with their media genealogies. The chapter focuses on the open nature of mobile communication and the ways in which this then lends itself to be the perfect medium, like a psychomanteum, through which parapsychological phenomenon can be experienced. Drawing from fieldwork in the United States, this chapter explores the ways in which mobile media can cultivate a haunted culture and facilitate a continuation of bonds with the deceased beyond death. Mobile media provide mobile-emotive forms of after-death communication that can lead to new ways of “reanimating” the dead.
