Podcasting: Impacto da plataformização num modelo de distribuição aberta de conteúdos
| Resumo: | The 21st century is marked by the proliferation and consolidation of digital platforms, which are now the prevailing structures in contemporary communication processes. Progressively, all areas and sectors of the media ecosystem have seen their set of norms, practices and representations challenged by a new mediation paradigm in the fields of indexing, sociability and media consumption. Platformized mediation has also enabled new horizons of interaction and connection, fostering the creation of new communities and forms of interaction between producers and users. This compilation of articles explores the impact of platformization on podcasting, a format based on an open distribution model that originated at the beginning of the century in the context of the collaborative and participatory cultures of Web 2.0 and is based on anRSS structure that allows for the subscription of audio, text and video content. The conditions under which podcasting is absorbed by platformized mediation structures are observed, deepening our knowledge of how platforms impose themselves as gateways to podcasting and what effect they have on the process of discovering and accessing content. This thesis seeks to contribute to the discussion on the role of Podcasting. It argues that the way Podcasting is appropriated is distinct from the other dimensions of the platformization of communication, with the format retaining many of its original characteristics in technological, cultural, social and economic terms. It is argued that the platforms' interest in podcasting follows on from broader systems of appropriation of on-demand audio mediation since the beginning of the century, inseparable from the digitalization of networked communication processes. |
