We had a really excellent presentation day today. I see that all the groups are skilled in identifying key concepts and applying them to their case studies. I hope that the audience studies groups do just as well, or even better, when they present on the 13th of August.
Next week, the 6th of August, we have Abby Yao (MA, University of London) and Jason Cabanes (ARI Fellow, NUSingapore) presenting their research on Filipino/a bloggers in London and Singapore and how they perform their identities online. I hope that you come to class ready to ask them challenging questions about their research.
The recommended reading is Mirca Madianou's "Contested Communicative Spaces" article from the Journal of Ethnic and Migration Studies. This is an excellent, easy-to-read study of how Turkish speakers in Greece negotiate their identities in their consumption of television news. However, you have the option to read the guest presenters' articles if you wish.
Here are the links below.
Madianou's "Contested Communicative Spaces" HERE.
Yao's "Pinay Brit Blogger" HERE.
Cabanes' "Pinoy Postings" HERE.
Please remember also that you should start thinking about your final papers and creative projects. Email me at jo296@cam.ac.uk or bertiebott@hotmail.com to schedule consultation. Have a good weekend!
