3. Participation as audience design
-
Marta Dynel
Abstract
This chapter presents a new look at the concepts of participation structure and receiver-oriented design of messages in social media, where the traditional dyadic model of communication is largely inapplicable. This fact necessitates new frameworks of participation in order to capture the nature of multi-party interactions on various social media platforms, which show many characteristics different from offline communication. However, the essential features of interaction hold also for the diversified social media formats. This chapter critically examines a selection of problems concerning the multifold reception end and production end in social media (in comparison to traditional media formats). Also, the issue of designing contributions in multi-party interactions among, frequently anonymous, participants is addressed.
