300735 Einführung in die Forschung sozialer Medien (SP: Soziotechnik) (30-M35: Mediensoziologie) (S) (WiSe 2026/2027)
Contents, comment

Instagram, Snapchat, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, Reddit, Discord, Telegram – soziale Medien sind schon lange Teil unserer alltäglichen Medienpraxis. Doch was ist das „Soziale“ an den sozialen Medien? Wie funktioniert Vergesellschaftung auf digitalen Plattformen mit unterschiedlichen Plattformarchitekturen, algorithmischer Kuratierung und Affordanzen? Die sozial- und medienwissenschaftliche Forschung hat sich in den letzten zwei Jahrzehnten immer intensiver mit diesen Fragen auseinandergesetzt.
Das Seminar setzt einen konkreten Schwerpunkt auf die soziotechnischen Verflechtungen, welche bei Sozialen Medien Vorzufinden sind: Algorithmen als Agenten, Infrastrukturen und Interfaces als Handlungsaufforderungen und Formate als mediale Strukturen.
