The problem of access to closed museum collections in the digital space is considered. The main content of the article is a description of the concept of the “Open Museum” and also noted the importance of using open licenses that exist in order to provide the possibility of multiple use of images of collections. A method of providing access to cultural content is described on the example of the implementation of a series of publications by the Department of Information Technologies in creative and cultural industries together with the Publishing House of the Siberian Federal University in order to develop the cultural canon and popularize digital museum content.

The paper considers the challenges in the modern pedagogical environment and in the education system, in connection with the transition to the digital space. It is noted that information technologies and the ability to work with them come to the fore in education. It is established that the student-teacher relationship is changing, and the student-technology relationship is becoming stronger every year. The rationale for the self-organization of teachers and students for effective interaction is given. The main advantages and disadvantages of distance learning and teacher-student interaction in an electronic environment are considered.

Cultural Services

The main goal of this work is to develop effective forms of financing for cultural industries. Information and methodological elements were formed. ensuring the process of logistics of the cultural services system. As a result, there is an objective need for system monitoring of the database of cultural industry organizations and innovative use of modern information technologies in solving complex economic problems to justify optimal solutions with a variety of alternative options.According to the author's classification of cultural services into passive and active, it is possible to distinguish two ways in the development of basic technologies and in the cultural industry. Mechanisms of innovative interaction of cultural institutions with business and government structures can be divided into several types: project financing (support for certain projects); social innovation and investment (support coincides with certain business strategies); donation interaction with business on a philanthropic basis; investment exchanges for cultural, art and creative projects; service contract (life cycle contract); fundraising for scientific (educational) and cultural services; concessions in the cultural industry; business incubators as a multiplier-accelerator for the culture industry (support for the system of cultural services at an early stage) , etc. The development and application of cross-industry information and communication technologies gives the largest volume of production of cultural services with a low cost, due to the scale of production.

We present the results of the development of a range of semantic services for the integrated management of electronic scientific collections. The goals of these developments are the formation of a unified digital space of mathematical knowledge, as well as information support for research activities in the field of mathematics and computer science. The digital collections we create and the semantic services we develop form the backbone of the Lobachevskii-DML digital math library. In implementing this study, we used approaches that are consistent with the widely discussed and accepted concepts of building the World Digital Mathematical Library (WDML).

While work in the media and cultural industries has long been considered precarious, the processes and logics of platformization have injected new sources of instability into the creative labor economy. Among the sources of such insecurity are platforms’ algorithms, which structure the production, circulation, and consumption of cultural content in capricious, enigmatic, even biased ways. Accordingly, cultural producers’ conditions and experiences are increasingly wrought by their understandings—and moreover their anticipation—of platforms’ ever-evolving algorithmic systems. Against this backdrop, I urge fellow researchers of digital culture and society to consider how this mode of “algorithmic precarity” exacerbates the instability of cultural work in the platform era. Considering the volatility of algorithms and the wider cross-platform ecology can help us to develop critical interventions into a creative economy marked by a profoundly uneven allocation of power between platforms and the laborers who populate—and increasingly—power them.

This article discusses new approaches to communication studies, which integrates theory and practice of communication. The education environment is a prolific sphere of the study and implementation of new types and modes of communication in the digital space. The investigation considers the advantages of using podcasts both for self-study of the material by students, and the creation and uploading video materials to the Internet. The main objective of this article is to explore the man difficulties and advantages of the new approach to teaching English for Special Purposes (ESP). With the increase of hours allocated for independent work of public relations (PR) undergraduates, it is necessary to give them creative tasks that contribute to the development of 6Cs (6 competencies) necessary for their future profession in the 21st century. Research methods include a complex analysis of the information technologies (IT) content of modern education with regard to unbiased perception and material representation. The results of the study have demonstrated, that uploading podcasts to video-hosting sites motivates the PR undergraduates to learn English, causes engagement, encourages them to pay more attention to the pronunciation, enlarges their vocabulary and improves their grammar, which contributes to the effective learning of ESP. The activities of undergraduates of the Humanities in English classes, as well as during independent work, can be recorded by technical means and posted on the Internet for further evaluation by both teachers and classmates, as well as by a wider mass audience in the digital space.

Media Concentration

Digital platforms, from Instagram to Spotify, have become central to the production, distribution, and monetization of cultural content. This essay discusses how this process of platformization poses three interrelated challenges for the research on and governance of contemporary cultural industries. First, platformization complicates the question of media concentration, as platform corporations integrate highly diverse businesses, not only hosting and curating media content, but also functioning as advertising networks, data intermediaries, and so on. Second, it thwarts the regulation of media content, as platforms channel vast amounts of heterogeneous materials, shared by a broad range of users, making it extremely difficult to maintain oversight. Third, the growing dominance of platform corporations over the cultural domain makes it vital, but also difficult, to develop and sustain online public service media and alternative noncommercial platforms. The essay closes by discussing how these challenges can and should be addressed from the perspective of media studies.

Cultural Content

The rise of contemporary platforms—from GAFAM in the West to the “three kingdoms” of the Chinese Internet—is reconfiguring the production, distribution, and monetization of cultural content in staggering and complex ways. Given the nature and extent of these transformations, how can we systematically examine the platformization of cultural production? In this introduction, we propose that a comprehensive understanding of this process is as much institutional (markets, governance, and infrastructures), as it is rooted in everyday cultural practices. It is in this vein that we present fourteen original articles that reveal how platformization involves key shifts in practices of labor, creativity, and citizenship. Diverse in their methodological approaches and topical foci, these contributions allow us to see how platformization is unfolding across cultural, geographic, and sectoral-industrial contexts. Despite their breadth and scope, these articles can be mapped along four thematic clusters: continuity and change; diversity and creativity; labor in an age of algorithmic systems; and power, autonomy, and citizenship.
