Based on some observed evidence (Braga, 2008), the goal is to answer the following research question: what meanings are produced from media circulation of cases of domestic labor analogous to slavery in Brazil? And in what way does the journalism update and/or maintain stigmatizing frameworks in its productions, affecting the social debate over this theme? The following research is a mediatized case study (Weschenfelder, 2020) with ethnographic character (Weber, 2009; Silva, 2019, Verón, 1983) and it was made from two methodological movements: the theoretical-conceptual reflection and the empirical analysis with social actors. On the theoretical reflection, we dialogue with the fertile bibliographical production of the studies in mediatization and mediatized circulation (Carlón, 2020; Fausto Neto, 2018; Verón, 1980; Rosa, 2019) from an observable case: the story of Madalena Gordiano, black woman who was enslaved for over 40 years on the city of Patos de Minas, Minas Gerais state, and rescued in 2020. In the empirical analysis, we interviewed four black women who perform paid domestic labor, and who live in the Metropolitan Region of Porto Alegre, in Rio Grande do Sul state. Regarding the Madalena story, we intended to observe how was made the circulation of the journalistic event on different ambiences, just as their fraces, flows and bundles of relationships on the circuits through it was generated (Fausto, 2018; Verón, 1980, 2004). Related to the interviews, we chose to use a semi-structured questionnaire, preserving the identities of the interlocutors (Escosteguy, 2008; Weber, 2009). We propose, in this thesis, to understand circulation as a process that isn’t neutral, but it is immersed in a colonial logic, and also racist and patriarchal, and are arranged on the communicational flow. The circulation, far from being a product, is a space for the production and management of values that arise with mediatization, but that are structured outside the media, contributing to a certain extent to critical thinking and confrontation on the part of social actors. As a result, we identify mediatization as a process that expands the debate on the analogy to slavery beyond what is reported, with circulation, putting into perspective the individual trajectories of confrontation and protagonism, sometimes in a libertarian way, sometimes following the slave-owning social form of society (Sodré, 2023). Certainly, far from exhaust the debate, the intention is that the study helps to support other reflections about the themes of circulation, journalism, communication and gender, especially with regard to stereotypes about racialized people in the media.

To analyze the hybrid phenomena emerging at the intersection of the Gothic and mass culture—a noted gap in communication studies—this research proposes the concept of Darkpop. The theoretical framework is grounded in Hauntology (Derrida, 1994; Fisher, 2012, 2022) to explore the (dys)chronological and repetitive persistence of the Gothic, arguing that it operates as a specter and an autophagic ecosystem. Methodologically, the study puts forward the Archaeology of Specters, a qualitative method that articulates Hauntology with Media Archaeology (Fischer, 2013; Zielinski, 2006; Ernst, 2001, 2013). This approach serves to excavate the "ghosts" (contemporary manifestations) and their past incarnations from the digital archive. The method is applied through the mapping of Darkpop phenomena (2020–2024) and an in-depth case study of the series Wednesday (Netflix, 2022), which is analyzed through its historical layers, cultural impact, and its relationship with aesthetic capitalism (Lipovetsky & Serroy, 2015). The thesis concludes that the Gothic persists and updates itself through Darkpop by functioning as a haunted, autophagic ecosystem, fueled by the tensions between the underground and the mainstream. Its main contributions are, therefore, the concept of Darkpop and the methodology of the Archaeology of Specters as tools for the analysis of spectral cultural phenomena in communication studies.

The methodological approach combined the analysis of the production grammar of the telenovelas with the monitoring of their digital circulation in different phases (premiere, middle, and final), considering comments, memes, hashtags, and trailers. The theoretical framework includes authors such as Gilbert Durand (regimes of the imaginary), Eliseo Verón (reading contracts, mediatization, and recognition), José Luiz Braga (circulation), Antonio Fausto Neto (zones of coupling and logics of visibility), and Ana Paula da Rosa (totemic images). The results indicate that certain historical symbols remain as totemic images (the arid backlands, religiosity, coronelismo, strong women), but, in the digital context, they operate as connective totemic images, articulating temporalities, platforms, and social actors. It was found that Mar do Sertão resignifies Northeastern archetypes in an affective key of cultural pride, while Travessia highlights fragilities and ruptures in symbolic recognition.

Starting from the assumption that photography has historically been linked to a physical referent that guaranteed its status of truth, the study examines how algorithmic simulation reconfigures the relationship between the real, the fabricated, and the imaginary, establishing new forms of visual credibility. The research seeks to understand not only the technical fundamentals — algorithms, machine learning architectures, and databases — that support these systems, but also how human agency is transformed, migrating from the photographic act to the operation of prompts and the curation of results. The study characterizes the ontology of generative images, contrasting their “engendering” process with the indexical paradigm of photography, and evaluates how the absence of a direct connection to a physical referent challenges notions of authenticity and truth. By articulating technical analysis and conceptual reflection, the research investigates how the algorithmic production of images expands the limits of human imagination, generating unprecedented visual repertoires that blend aesthetic codes and cultural references. By discussing the epistemological implications of the AI-produced imagefiction, the thesis proposes that these new possible worlds constitute not only a technological phenomenon but also a cultural transformation that demands the revision of theoretical and critical paradigms about image, verisimilitude, and visual knowledge in the contemporary context. Finally, it is argued that understanding this new ecology of images requires an interdisciplinary perspective, capable of integrating image theory, philosophy of technology, and data science. By recognizing that contemporary visuality is built at the intersection of human agency and algorithmic operation, this research seeks to offer theoretical and critical subsidies to think about the role of the generative image in the construction of visual artifacts. By analyzing our corpus, it is concluded that generative images not only expand the modes of imagining but also establish regimes of visuality in which the creation of possible worlds is converted into a collective, poetic, and epistemic practice, pushing the boundaries between real and fictional.

Through a methodological approach that combines narrative interviews (Rosenthal, 2014) and narrative and framing analysis (Creed et al., 2002; Webb, Mallon, 2007) in an intersectional perspective (Creed et al., 2002; Webb, Mallon, 2007), seven interviews were conducted with feminist gaming streamers. The categories identified in this analysis show that these professionals’ communication practices are structured around resilience and melancholy tactics (James, 2015; McRobbie, 2020), since the influencers try to reverse the damage of the exposure to sexist harassment through visibility and resistance to the algorithmic curatorship.

It seeks to understand the ongoing process in which drag artists have transitioned from underground spaces to spaces of extreme visibility, particularly through experimental modes of media engagement and the management of social circulation processes of meanings. The empirical focus is on the practices of Rita Von Hunty, a highly visible celebrity drag queen in Brazil and the creator of the YouTube channel 'Tempero Drag.' Rita Von Hunty is the drag persona of the actor and language and literature teacher Guilherme Terreri de Lima Pereira. The research requires an understanding of the drag culture context as part of the case study because it is within this context that Guilherme is situated. Furthermore, like other cultural experiences, what Guilherme/Rita does also, in some way, challenges and transforms the context itself. Methodologically, the study is constructed as a mediatized case study, with a focus on the evidence paradigm, aiming not only to collect and select evidence but primarily to produce inferences about the practice’s logics. Empirical materials from different origins were analyzed, selected according to criteria outlined in the chapter dedicated to the case construction. The theoretical discussions engage with mediatization theories, with an emphasis on its Latin American approach, as well as discussions on performance, social fields, and celebrity studies. More specifically, Rita's practices suggest a confrontation of a context of misinformation and social invisibility. Finally, the investigated case allows for an understanding that the production of mediatized processes by drag artists operates as a tool of resistance against the material conditions of life and of circulation within culture.

With this question, the general objective of this study is to map the intertwining between selection criteria, strategies of presence on digital platforms and the economic viability of the alternative journalism, limiting the investigation to the Brazilian journalistic project Lado B do Rio. Within this proposal, there are some complementary objectives, which include the identification of journalistic selection criteria, the understanding of the political-economic organization of a project in this field and the strengthening of studies on alternative communication in Brazil and in the global South. The research begins with a theoretical review that includes several discussions, with contributions from authors such as JeanChristophe Plantin, Antonio Gramsci, Peter Berger, Thomas Luckmann, Roselí Fígaro, Patrick Charaudeau, among others. Together, the authors allow the problematization of journalism in its editorial, political and economic character, the effects of the performance of digital platforms in global society, the hegemonic formation of large technology companies and the media constructions of media outlets. From this incursion, it is possible to build a methodological process that outlines conceptual bases, unraveling concepts, dimensions and indicators that approach the empirical object of research through methods such as exploratory research, qualitative interviews and content analysis. Therefore, the project Lado B do Rio, synthesizing observations of Brazilian alternative journalism, is provoked in editorial, political, organizational and economic aspects, which seek to fulfill the objectives previously outlined. As a result, there is a clear definition of political perspectives in the development of content production, even though the conversion of this characteristic into a sustainable business model is fraught with internal and external challenges to the project.

Grounded in the principles of educommunication — especially the contributions of Paulo Freire, Simón Rodríguez, and Mario Kaplún — and the concept of communicative citizenship, the research was based on the methodology of action research. In the field of migration studies, critical approaches were incorporated that understand human mobility within global contexts, drawing on authors such as Cogo, Sayad, Appadurai, and Martín-Barbero. To contextualize migration processes in Brazil and in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, the study also engaged with authors such as Patarra, Seyferth, Lesser, and Hobsbawm. The workshops were held at Colégio Tiradentes da Brigada Militar and involved critical analysis of media content, contextualization of human mobility — with a focus on Senegalese, Haitian, and Venezuelan migrations, all ethnic groups present in São Gabriel (RS) —, migrant testimonies, fanzine production, and debates on citizenship and interculturality. The main findings highlight the ability of educommunicative practices to promote shifts in perspectives on migration and media, even if in a partial and ongoing manner; the strengthening of students' communicative autonomy, evidenced in their critical analyses and in their authored productions with original meanings and intercultural listening — elements that signal the emergence of communicative citizenship; the importance of articulating active listening, media authorship, and critical reflection on digital technologies; and the validation of methodological tools such as the deconstruction script for media narratives. The research reaffirms that intercultural and critical citizenship practices are built slowly, contextually, and are shaped by school, family, and media-related mediations. It concludes that the integration of critical media education with critical migration education is a powerful pathway for forming more sensitive, reflective, and politically engaged subjects committed to pluralism and human rights.

In this work I present the mediatization of a folkloric element, Bumba Meu Boi from Maranhão, which crosses generations and travels through social media, adapting to the new way of being in the world. The discussion is centered on the area of mediatization and its social processes. It is configured as important, because it presents the media circulation traveled by popular culture groups as a historical-cultural element, but attentive to changes in social behavior without losing their essence. The objective is to analyze the behavior of two folkloric groups, Boi de Morros and Boi da Maioba, on the social network Instagram, in the period of 2020 and 2021, a period that includes the years of the Covid-19 pandemic, and which mark the absence of presentations and cultural manifestations with the participation of the public. The methodology used involved bibliographic research, netnography and discourse analysis. The analyses were conducted directly on the pages of these two Bumba Meu Bois groups, which, prevented from performing in public, changed their production and consumption modus to posting photos, reels, graphic arts, TBTs and live streams on the social network. The results highlighted the ease of dealing with the public remotely, the interaction, the cadence of the circulation of posts, a mass mediation controlled by a mediatization without an agenda setting. A circular movement promoted by one person, making use of accessible and low-cost technological resources.

Presenting a research problem that pursue to understand how the memory of embodiment is updated in the images of the technoculture of gaming, we seek to generate thinking about a phenomenological perspective of the body. We think of embodiment in these spaces as demanding action: in addition to our body and the machinic, there is a third body in latency, and is only perceived when we play. Each game and device we observe we call “experience territories”: the virtual reality environment, the game world, the space we are exploring, the off-screen environment where our real body is. As empirical objects, the research explores hardware and software: Atari Mindlink (1984), Meta Quest 2 (2020), Dreams of Dalí (2018), Beat Saber (2018), Pixel Ripped 1989 (2018), Art Plunge (2019), Half-Life: Alyx (2020), Pixel Ripped 1995 (2020) and Pixel Ripped 1978 (2023). Endowed with a media-archaeological and archaeogaming perspective, this diversity allows us to look at technoculture from the perspective of audiovisualities: audiovisual power in different devices, becoming that emerges in matter, which for us are games. Our methodology takes place in the following arrangement: Bergsonian intuitive method, guiding the construction of the object and the research problem; development of maps based on excavation movements, dissection, collections of images from our empirics related to the assembly of constellations; experimental and laboratory technical procedures based on the act of playing the games, producing gameplay videos – an act of our action as researcher-player-archaeogamer in these territories using a virtual reality device. We present three constellations that form the embodiment galaxy of gaming technoculture images: point-of-view, contemplative state and mind-body-haptic – where the three coexist. There is a body that exists (or pre-exists) in the sum of everything that forms the game world while it is being played – a latent body, in becoming. The perception of its existence occurs in its manifestation when the game is being played. We have embodiment as this body of the playful subject of technoaesthetic experience, a body that is in between and constituted by the powers of the playful, imagery order and the computational/artifact/materiality order.

The study focuses on the intersection between media, culture and identity, especially in Brazil, where issues of identity representation are topics of intense dispute. The methodology employs the concept of multiperformance, considering music videos as spaces of complex meaning, where multiple identity performances coexist and influence each other to create meanings. The research articulates theories of performativity and decolonial and intersectionality perspectives to understand how drag queens transcend mere artistic expression, acting as critical interventions that challenge popular music conventions and identity norms, while resisting power structures that marginalize identities. The transmethodological approach integrates different dimensions of communication, considering aesthetic, sociological and historical aspects to capture the symbolic and political potential of communication. The detailed analysis of selected music videos shows how drag queens use aesthetic, musical and technological strategies to negotiate visibility, authenticity and legitimacy, facing both the limitations of the cultural industry and dominant social expectations. Music videos are seen as arenas of symbolic dispute where identities are constantly being constructed, deconstructed and reconfigured, revealing the complex interactions between performativity, mediatization and intersectionality. The research offers a significant contribution to the field of communication by proposing a critical epistemology that values the diversity of knowledge and highlights the impact of cultural representations on the construction of social realities. It underscores the importance of a science that is inclusive and committed to social justice. Furthermore, it emphasizes the need for communication practices that promote fairer and more equitable representation, highlighting artistic performances by drag queens as striking examples of cultural resistance and identity affirmation. The valorization of these performances highlights the transformative power of the arts in a context of resistance and affirmation of dissident identities, reaffirming the relevance of a critical and engaged analysis of the media.

In an approach focused on cinema, the investigation made it possible to identify technical and aesthetic processes used as strategies to operationalize a “nostalgization” of narratives. These processes were grouped into six collections: references; sequels, remakes and reimaginings; reconstruction of the period; visual effects; soundtrack and script. When addressing the audiovisualization of nostalgia, we rely on Henri Bergson, based on the concept of duration, and Suzana Kilpp, through audiovisualities, to present the proposal of “nostalgicity”, a virtuality active in technoculture capable of creating a powerful atmosphere to evoke memories. The existence of this nostalgic quality was analyzed in the feature film Ready player one (Steven Spielberg, 2018) through a methodological movement that articulated dissection, disassembly, excavation and deconstruction of images, removing 182 frames from the flow. This laboratory work, supported by Walter Benjamin and Massimo Canevacci, led to the development of three constellations: nostalgia of the spectator-body (inclusion of references not identified by the narrative that encourage the spectator to play a game of recognition of the origins and derivations of certain images), nostalgia of the film world (emphasis on explicitly offered references, in different variations and levels of understanding, demarcating that this is an audiovisual work that articulates cultural references) and historical-temporal nostalgia (establishment of an auratic ambience originating from a period in the past that pulsates a certain technocultural imaginary). While the collections are on the material level, the constellations are on the order of potency. They are durations of both Ready player one and audiovisual nostalgia, which allows them to be updated in other cinematographic works.

The study is conducted within the context of mediatization, an environment composed of a diversity of media-interactive logics that transform and reconfigure the way everything and everyone lives in society. For this reason, the research focuses on identifying the communicative, especially symbolic, representativeness intrinsic to the papal office but which are particular to the way Francis led and governed the Catholic Church.His way of governing, in some situations, borders on experimentation compared to what is already consolidated in the institution's ways of being. Based on what the Pope says and does, the research problem is elaborated: how do Pope Francis's communicative representativeness mobilize interactional experiments in the relationship between participants, systems, and the environment? How does the set of impacts from this relationship trigger circuitry logics? Therefore, through multiple cases of circulation, the objective is to understand how these representativeness are triggered when we observe interactions in circulation dynamics. The investigation comprises three distinct cases: 1) Civil union of homosexuals, which relates a doctrinal issue to an internal problem of the Church, reflecting in society; 2) Synodality Synod, which deals with the internal structure and organization of the Catholic Church, generating hierarchical problems with the "sharing of power"; and 3) Peace Negotiation, which examines the Pope's participation in attempting to mediate the war between Russia and Ukraine, highlighting the Church's diplomacy in a scenario of social calamity. This study examines the specific situations of each individual case to understand how agonistics enhance communicative experiments originating in the tension between what is normative to the institution in which the Pope is inscribed and what is experimental. By articulating the specific inferences of each case with the theoretical discussions concerning the logics of media circuits, the communicative representativeness in circulation in a space of value and the relationship between systems and environment, it was possible to identify that the reverberation of events involving Pope Francis already reaches us from media constructions and in a web of meanings and impacts; the Pope's presence includes representative and/or symbolic participations that go beyond the exclusive role of the leader of Catholicism; and the impacts that result from media circuits are what feed these circuits back, however, with other layers of meaning and impacts. Therefore, we identified that the three processes outline the movements of circuiting, whose feedback is neither uniform nor previously established, but manifests itself in its way according to circulation dynamics.

Abrams as the research corpus. The initial analysis of the series reveals that its monstrosities are updated in other digital materialities, transcending the boundaries of the original narrative. Therefore, the research aims to understand communicational phenomena, highlighting the importance of examining the particularities that reveal macro aspects of these phenomena. It proposes an analysis that goes beyond the specificity of the audiovisual product to understand broader media processes, connecting micro and macro phenomena in the collective social construction through techniques and aesthetics that manifest and perpetuate in different formats and devices, relating concepts of memory, user actions, and technical images. By observing how the monstrosities present in the series' narrative spread to other digital spaces, we use Didi-Huberman's (1998) concept of the dialectics of the image to understand how these audiovisual monstrosities manifest in communications via platforms and social media, forming what we call "monstrous audiovisualities." To identify the research corpus, we employed a methodological approach that involves flânerie and cartography. Flânerie, inspired by Benjamin (2009) and applied in the digital context, allowed us to explore streaming platforms like a flâneur, observing and being affected by the various representations of monsters in films and series. Based on these initial methodological movements and the choice of the corpus, the research ventured into other digital spaces, following the collections of monstrous meanings from the series, focusing on platforms and social media where we found dialectical monstrous aspects related to the series, according to the frame methodology (KILPP, 2002), considering its techno-aesthetic, social, and political implications within contemporary technoculture. The investigation revealed that digital platforms and social media are spaces where these monstrosities are updated, reflecting social and political aspects of our era's technoculture. By exploring virtual windows, the research highlighted how monsters manifest through platforms and user actions, demonstrating dialectical meanings with the audiovisual monstrosities of the Castle Rock series.

Para ello, se asumieron tres frentes de reconocimiento: a partir de las competencias comunicativas de las personas con SD; la movilización del síndrome de Down en productos mediáticos; y el ejercicio de la comunicación por parte de influenciadores con síndrome de Down. De manera transversal, se propone una disputa epistemológica a través de un giro decolonial en la comprensión de la "discapacidad". La problemática que orienta la investigación busca reconocer esta ciudadanía comunicativa, analizando los usos y apropiaciones que las personas con síndrome de Down hacen de los procesos comunicativos y mediáticos para ejercerla. El estudio fue construido a partir de un diseño teórico-transmetodológico que pauta la comprensión de las "personas con discapacidad" como sujetos de interés para el campo de la Comunicación. Además, se tensionan los procesos mediáticos como espacios constitutivos de "alguien" y "nadie", con el fin de resaltar la necesidad de otra forma de comunicación para grupos históricamente y simbólicamente violentados. Atentos a la ecología científica y a la necesidad de una producción anticapacitista, la investigación se realizó en coproducción con sujetos con síndrome de Down. La investigación se basó en diferentes recursos metodológicos, como conversatorios para la construcción de historias de vida y mediáticas de los coparticipantes; netnografía para comprender la producción comunicativa de personas con SD en redes sociales digitales; análisis de contenido para visualizar la movilización de sujetos con síndrome de Down en piezas periodísticas; y análisis fílmico para observar dicha movilización en el cine. Entre los principales hallazgos, se destacan siete características que definen la ciudadanía comunicativa de personas con SD: multidimensionalidad de su ejercicio; ruptura del silencio; creación de espacios alternativos a los medios de comunicación; disputa por significados contrahegemónicos en los medios; el periodismo como ventana al mundo; redes sociales como espacio para alfabetización anticapacitista y disputa de la normalidad; y redes sociales como espacios de uso comunieducativo.; Based on a transformative scientific commitment to the production of knowledge that is useful in guaranteeing and expanding the communicative citizenship of people with disabilities, this text presents a transmethodological journey of research alongside people with Down syndrome (DS). The objective was to acknowledge possible characteristics of the exercise of communicative citizenship by this group. To this end, three fronts of recognition were assumed: based on the communication skills of people with DS; the mobilization of Down syndrome in media products; and the exercise of communication by influencers with Down syndrome. In a transversal way, an epistemological dispute is proposed through a decolonial turn in the understanding of “disability”. The problem that guides the research seeks to recognize this communicative citizenship, analyzing the uses and appropriations that people with DS make of communication and media processes to exercise it. The study was built based on a theoretical-transmethodological design that guides the understanding of people with disabilities as subjects of interest in the field of Communication. Furthermore, media processes are stressed as constitutive spaces of “someones” and “nobodies”, aiming to highlight the need for a different communication for historically and symbolically violated groups. Aware of scientific ecology and the need for anti-ableist production, the research was carried out in co-production with individuals with Down syndrome. The investigation was based on different methodological resources, such as conversations to construct the life and media histories of the co-participants; netnography to understand the communicational production of people with DS on digital social networks; content analysis to visualize the mobilization of subjects with Down syndrome in journalistic pieces; and film analysis to observe this mobilization in cinema. Among the main findings, seven characteristics stand out that help to understand the communicative citizenship of people with Down syndrome: multidimensionality of its exercise; breaking the silence; creation of alternative spaces for the media; dispute for counter-hegemonic meanings in the media; journalism as a window to the world; social networks as a space for anti-ableism literacy and the dispute over normality; and social networks as spaces for communication-education use.

The theoretical framework is based on audiovisualities, technoculture, logics and dynamics of the independent music scenes, and gender and music issues together with intersectionality aspects. The methodological procedures beheld the establishment of profile of the musicians, who are singers, composers and play instruments, and that released music projects on music platforms with an interesting usage of the audiovisual for their divulgation on social media platforms, in the face of the measures for containing the Covid-19 virus dissemination. Based on this, the methodological moves for constituting the research corpus from the cartographies perspective where flânerie, in order to map the artists, their releases, their audiovisuals and other female professionals that make their music scenes happen; interviews with these women; and the usage of digital methods for data extraction from the musician’s Instagram profiles, to build a sample of the audiovisuals published by them during that period for releasing music projects. Alongside with that, procedures were carried out for codification/collections structuration for categorization, and the organization of the constellations Pandemic platformed audiovisualities and Music networks and gender, for analysis purposes. We concluded, with these moves, to have understood how the audiovisual processes by the female musicians during the Covid-19 pandemic actualized their music scenes’ DIY ethos. The artists dealt with the limitations of the pandemic context, of the algorithmic logics of the platformed environment, and of their circumstances as women in a society still with a deep gender inequality. For that, they used the possible resources for producing their audiovisuals, the platform’s affordances, and took a position, with image and text, as composers, singers and instrumentalists. As a result, they accomplished the construction and the fostering of a network with the audience and other members of the music scenes, articulating their growth and their representativity, and therefore actualizing the DIY ethos in their music scenes.

What practices are changed in each context? With this, it aims to understand how symbiotic relationships, characteristic of a mediatization scenario, reshape journalistic practices and newsrooms in Brazil and Sweden. Furthermore, the following specific objectives are: a) Understanding how the process of circulation of meanings is present in the structuring and production of journalistic content through symbiotic relationships in both contexts b) Identifying how the environment has modified practices of news construction in Brazil and Sweden c) Measure how the pandemic affected journalistic practices; news products and newsrooms in Brazil and Sweden d) Observe consumption based on the circulation of meanings of social actors in both contexts e) Propose the concept of mediatized newsrooms. In the theoretical field, the thesis highlights the discussion about symbiotic relationships in Communication with authors such as Marcellino and Fort; Joel de Rosnay, Daniel Miller, Stina Begntsson, among others. In a second moment, theories of mediatization, mediatized journalism and journalistic practices are discussed with the contribution of theorists such as Ana Paula da Rosa, José Luiz Braga, Pedro Gilberto Gomes, Antônio Fausto Neto, etc. In a third theoretical moment, the thesis seeks to discuss the concept of device on two fronts: interactional and technical. To do this, we sought support in discussions by José Luiz Braga, Giorgio Agamben, Villém Flusser, Giorgio Simondon, among others. As a way of answering the current question in the thesis, the methodological constitution of this work was based on ethnography. In Sweden, seven journalists from different newsrooms (Dagens ETC, T&T News Agency, Sverige Radio and a Freelancer) were interviewed. In Brazil, the ethnographic process was outlined based on a two-week participant observation in the Curitiba newspaper Paraná Portal. In addition, three interviews were carried out with professionals who work in this newsroom. This thesis highlights the concept of mediatized newsrooms, journalism newsrooms that function in a deterritorial or hybrid manner, with workspaces that are extended through technological devices and applications affecting production, reception and distribution logics.

The anchor of the research is the exercise of power (in politics and journalism) as an effect of gender articulations: it’s through the attribution of certainties to women and men that hierarchical relationships are negotiated. In Brazil, politics is the institution that implements the extreme bottlenecks that place the masculine and feminine in the condition of antagonists; there are 52% Brazilian women in a country with 53% female voters, who elected 18% female candidates in 2022. There is a Brazil of women governed by men, in which President Dilma Rousseff appears as the greatest feminine mark to break rigid borders of a Brazil sewn with a masculine pronoun. The segregation of the largest portion of the population from the sphere of public policy does not occur in vain (Flávia BIROLI, 2018b), but as a nature of complex, deep-rooted and historical constructions that condition the male as the rule of existence and the female as a deviant position, on the other, as a non-man (Guacira Lopes LOURO, 1997). The example of the gendering of power is in ancestry and mythology, with the production of archetypes of the collective unconscious that reproduce the demands and limitations of gender – such as the Hero's Journey, from 1949 (CAMPBELL, 2007), and the Heroine's Journey, from 1991 (Maureen MURDOCK, 2022). Although these scripts appear as devices that open scenarios and provoke epistemological knowledge, there are insufficiencies in understanding what it means to be a hero or what it means to be a heroine. The Mission of the Candidates is a proposal to advance these journeys of theoretical-methodological analysis: through objective journalism (in investigation and ethics), but above all subjective (in affect and alterity), the provocation is to verify the fabrication of the narrative journalism (MOTTA, 2005a; RESENDE, 2009) as an agent that is also intertwined with gender impositions. News is a force that permeates social activity when it tells the life stories that permeate everyday life (Fabiana MORAES, 2022; Marcia VEIGA DA SILVA, 2010). The proposal of the thesis, then, is to present an analysis based on 24 news items from 168 copies and 13,486 pages from two Brazilian newspapers (Estadão and O Globo), using the Marcos de Dilma methodology (in which there is the systematization of a line of time with key dates in the former president's political history). As a result, the research identifies the arc of the Mission of the Candidates based on 12 stages of meaning that serve as a guide to understand how the journalistic narrative of women in Brazilian politics can be constructed. The proposal of the thesis is to sponsor concerns for subjective knowledge, but committed to accurate, dignified and horizontal information. It’s in the pages of this journalism that the production of fair knowledge that explores the dynamics of power for men and women is found. The Mission of the Candidates is a sample of a journalistic narrative that builds the journey of women in Brazilian politics. Although it does not present itself as a static and definitive form, the intention is to promote a reference that gives rise to reflections on the shape of journalism in situations that demand subjectivity in the telling of history. Therefore, this thesis is structured based on the duty to demand a journalistic narrative in which women's life stories in politics are not naturalized, conditioned or even made unfeasible.

Reflecting on what it means to be indie or independent, we seek enduring qualities that are updated in these game objects, proposing to understand them from markers of indiecity. We start from a Benjaminian epistemological assumption to understand these objects from the perspective of technique. In addition to Benjamin's concepts, our theoretical-methodological framework relies on Bergson's concepts of duration and memory, as well as media archaeology from Parikka and Huhtamo. The main objective of the research is to distinguish markers of what we call indiecity of these games in their political dimension, as media objects implicated in an audiovisual technoculture whose durations feed an imaginary about independence. We also aim, specifically: to consider indie games in becoming as implicated in a technocultural imaginary that manifests itself in various ways and in dialectical images produced throughout their history, in a social context, as an audiovisual cultural artifact; to problematize issues related to independence in the media, based on the relationships among these productions, the game industry, and the imaginaries about independence, and how these concepts are updated in Brazilian indie games; to propose a methodology for thinking about game production from a relationship of production, consumption, and subversion. Thus, we establish a methodology that starts from the excavation of these game objects to then produce dialectical images in constellations of objects distant in time and space. These constellations revolve around the history of games, their constitution as cultural, social, and technoludopolitical artifacts. This perspective proposes to consider the game from issues of race and gender. We analyze various games produced in Brazil, especially the independent games Bem Feito and Telethugs. Finally, we seek to define the concepts of indie and independent, proposing markers of indiecity based on enduring qualities over time. These qualities concern the appropriation of technological apparatus in instances of production and publication, the use of aesthetic means to rewrite the history of games, and forms of refraction or reproduction of hegemonic discourses Wed, 27 Mar 2024 00:00:00 GMT http://repositorio.jesuita.org.br/handle/UNISINOS/13135 2024-03-27T00:00:00Z http://repositorio.jesuita.org.br/handle/UNISINOS/13132 Mitos, messias e salvadores da pátria: sentidos de masculinidade em memes de super-heróis usados no bolsonarismo Miorando, Guilherme Sfredo Bolsonarism aligns with other far-right political movements that plague the world in the early decades of the 21st century. It employs a range of digital strategies on online platforms, including the creation and dissemination of internet memes. Superheroes are a cultural product associated with various media whose popularity has been heightened by audiovisual productions since the year 2000. These characters are often linked to memes produced by the far-right because they circulate meanings related to virility, power, and domination. Masculinist movements related to extremist politicians rely on the circulation of user-generated content that spreads logics of male supremacy. This rhetoric induces physical and symbolic violence against other individuals, especially women and queer people. This thesis seeks to understand, through memes, how bolsonarism appropriates images of superheroes with meanings of masculinism to establish its semiotic territories. The analysis outlined here is based on theoretical assumptions that explain the dynamics of superheroes, bolsonarism, and masculinities in culture, from a perspective of memetics and Yuri Lotman's Semiotics of Culture. The methodology aims to unravel the semiotic territorialities of these memes, that is, to understand the spaces their meanings occupy within semiospheres, the systems that form culture. This research compiled 400 political memes based on superheroes collected through internet search mechanisms. Of the total, 60% of them use figures linked to bolsonarism, and Bolsonaro appears in 52% of the memes. They also present more as diverse images without repetition of a structure. Nationalist heroes like Superman and Captain America are the most used. However, the abundant use of imagery manifestations of hypermasculinity and action characters like Terminator and Rambo surpasses the boundaries of common superhero definitions. A masculinity of ostentation and male complicity were more associated with bolsonarism, while ostentation and the senses of homophobia and misogyny were used to portray opponents of the movement. This result reflects the fact that masculinity is a factor linked to the demonstration of power and, by presenting it in a derogatory manner, associated with homosexuality or femininity, it also means to belittle its target. It is emphasized that this practice is not restricted to the far right, but something that the left also resorts to. The implications of the thesis account for the meanings of bolsonarism and masculinities being worked on from movements of semiotic translation, which allow the use of various meanings and values about images of superheroes. The intention of memes to spread and reproduce through as many minds and spaces of the internet and culture as possible, like a virus, is an important factor in the dissemination of these ideas. Thus, there is an overlap of semiotic environments that provoke overheating in the semiospheres, promoting a deepening and wear in the meanings of masculinities that are sought with more intensity, hatred, and violence.

Using the discursive circulation analysis method and the evidentiary paradigm, the strategies and tactics of political, social and institutional actors to manage circulation, reconfigure fraud narratives, amplify them, as well as attempts to contain these statements are examined. by professional journalism. Furthermore, the case study method is adopted to build an analytical device that allows the investigation of mediatized interactions and the communication circuits through which interacting subjects attribute value to electronic voting machines and the electoral system as a whole. When analyzing the circuits together, we arrived at a common denominator: the mythology of the plot. In the imaginary of fraud, shared by the Bolsonaro bubble, the plot is the central piece that gives meaning to Bolsonaro's (PL) defeat. At the level of inferences, voter fraud is a mental and discursive product that, at the same time, feeds and is fed by an imaginary that permeates media and political processes. From the episodes studied, it was possible to observe that fraud takes on different meanings, depending on the environment in which it circulates. These disputed meanings highlight the space of circulation, that is, the process of lag between the discursive poles of production and recognition, even though, in advanced stage mediatization, there is an uninterrupted exchange between those who produce and those who receive the statements. Thus, the study reveals the situation of mediatization that reconfigures the electoral process, in which political actors act as active agents in the formation of communities of belief and in the dissemination of fraud narratives. Finally, this thesis contributes to communication studies by elucidating the role of mediatization in reconfiguring the sphere of public visibility and contemporary political debates. There is a change in the concept of social communication. Facts no longer depend on mass media to gain public visibility, which reinforces our premise that mediatization studies emerge as a new paradigm for communication studies.

As a problematization, if on the one hand there is a socio-historical continuum of racism that is updated, on the other hand racialized and anti-racist communication practices intersect with expansions of the scales of time and space in the mediatized environment. The objective of this thesis is to investigate how Afro-referenced circuits and the media of journalism trigger complex temporalities and spaces in the uses and appropriations of devices and narrative disputes in circulation based on mediatized cases. The research hypotheses argues that a mediatized environment encompasses complex temporalities and spaces that intersect in disputes between Afro-referenced circuits and journalism outlets, which present practices linked to (anti-)racism. The theoretical-methodological design prioritizes the search for evidence based on three complementary axes: propositions regarding the mediatized chronotope, appropriation of the concept of chronotope (BAKHTIN, 2010; 2018; GILROY, 2004) translated into communication and which articulates the other two axes ; reflections on the historicization of mediatization and mediations linked to long-term racism; and the study of multiple mediatized cases, regarding the deaths of Gustavo Amaral and João Alberto Freitas and editions of the GloboNews Em Pauta program after the death of George Floyd. Among the research universe and sample, there are television news programs and various texts from journalism media and interactions of social actors in interactional circuits in socio-digital networks. The theoretical framework covers concepts related to mediatization (VERÓN, 2013; 2014; BRAGA, 2006; and GOMES, 2016; FERREIRA, 2016; 2017; FAUSTO NETO, 2018; CARLÓN, 2019), history of media (J. B. THOMPSON, 2015; BRIGGS and BURKE, 2016), the socio-historical phenomena of colonialism, racism and modernity (FANON, 2022; CÈSAIRE, 2022; and GILROY, 2012), in addition to propositions about the black public sphere (GILROY, 2012) and relations between journalism and modernity (GROTH, 2011). From the theoretical-methodological references derive authorial propositions about media circulation processes through crossroads between presentification, presentism, presenticism and mediatized temporalities, and their materializations in territorial and symbolic spaces. As inferences from each mediatized case are intertwined, the Afro-referenced circuits carry out quick actions after the events, opposing the silencing, forgetfulness and denials exercised by journalism, non-media institutions and other circuits in the face of social cases. These contrasts occur in narratives that subvert images of control (HILL COLLINS, 2022) by recognizing the dimensions of 'being black', of 'becoming black' (SANTOS, 2021) and around racism in memories and denunciations of their continuity and updating. Given the speed of these actions and the expansion of access by black social actors to the public media sphere, journalistic narratives begin to thematize racism momentarily in interpenetrations with the temporalities of the circuits, but, without denouncing it case by case, they oscillate between the recognition of humanity and the dehumanization of victims in the narratives. In conclusion, actions and narratives of social actors in circular temporality of remembrance highlight the constant updating and adaptation of Afro-referenced cultures in the mediatized society. With this, enabling an expansion of disputes and tensions regarding the continuity and updating of racism in the media, a process materialized in mediatized chronotopes in demarcations, permanences and changes in space-time.

Under an anachronistic look provided by the lens of the audiovisualities of technoculture, we investigate the peculiar way in which animation manifests itself, having in the spatial organization of its modularity a vertex as important as the temporality of the images that move. Through excavatory movements that aim to produce collections of images from different periods, we seek to investigate, therefore, spatial animation as a technical/aesthetic becoming and its updating movements, especially in contemporary media. In this way, we seek to understand how spatial animation is helping to precipitate not only new media objects, but also new media environments that, in turn, produce new kinds of users, new softwarized interfaces and new ways of displaying and transmit moving images, reorganizing man's sensitive experience of the world through an audiovisualized process that, therefore, has animation in a central and decisive position.

While video streaming services have proven to be a powerful phenomenon capable of reshaping the structures and paradigms of the audiovisual industry, this research aims to scrutinize the relationship between these services and the spectator. With a research problem elaborated using Henri Bergson's intuitive method and a technocultural perspective (which considers culture and technique as mutually influential), this thesis explores how the construct of the spectator is updated in video streaming services. To achieve this, it establishes historical boundaries concerning the spectator construct, drawing from the works of Arlindo Machado, Villem Flusser, and Jonathan Crary. In the context of video streaming services, they are proposed to be comprehended as dispositifs, relational networks formed by heterogeneous elements, organized in ways spectator subjectivation. Subsequently, the media archaeology approach, based on Erikk Huhtamo and Charles Musser, is employed, suggesting that the relationship between the spectator and the dispositifs occurs through what is called screen practices. Once the theoretical premises are established, the focus shifts to video streaming services, proposing three updates: the collective spectator, the ordinary spectator, and the protagonist spectator. Finally, the figure of the final-spectator is reintroduced, an update that professedly brings together several characteristics of spectator virtuality within a single practice and constantly emerges when screen practices are analyzed.

On the basis of a communicational perspective at the phenomenon of the internet and the presence of media on the web, the proposal of this thesis is to understand, from the cartography and the anarchivist procedure, as the filmic images of "NO PAIZ DAS AMAZONAS" by Silvino Santos (1922) are updated in the archives of online search engine, specifically Google. The concepts of memory (such as image) and archiving are constructed from Derrida (2001), Foucault (2008) and Bergson (1999), among other authors. In this perspective, the image of the filmic audiovisual memory can be recognized in the archival files originated in cinema, video, TV and internet. From the encounter of these filmic materials in the graphical interface of online search engines, the image of archiving in the contemporary is observed. The research problem about the updating of filmic images by audiovisual archiving is placed in function of time. The audiovisual is thought in its audiovisualities of a virtual updating itself in the duration. In the cartographies thought as montages, pauses on the moving images are done, when they are given to see the updates in the uses, appropriations and ways of collecting and archiving the images through search engines, users and media on the web. The anarchivation procedure considers the organization found in all archiving form and consists of deconstruction movements from the truth-power order (FOUCAULT, 1980) on the archiving of the search engine for the filmic images. The search engine and multiple archiving target to the technoculture of search as a cultural form of databases. The filmic image of the silent cinema database filmmaker is the archiving of the online search engine database. Archiving, as an update of the filmic images, is recognized in the duration and in the multiplicity of other archives, from other times and from other media.

Gender violence intensified during the pandemic, mainly due to isolation measures, the economic and health crisis caused by the disease, deepening gender inequalities. To understand how journalism narrates gender violence, the research starts from a theoretical argument about the studies of journalism, gender, gender violence against women and LGBTQIA+ and journalistic narratives. From Lerner (2019), it is understood how gender and patriarchy articulate a system of production of inequalities and violence against women and gender-diverse people. The historical and social constitution of violence against women and LGBTQIA+, achievements, advances and setbacks in public policies to face violence are essential to understand the production and worsening of gender violence in the Covid-19 pandemic. The event and journalistic narratives are central concepts for thinking about the role of journalism and the journalist in the production of journalistic narratives about gender violence and the meanings they generate. Thus, through the analysis of the narrative of two events of national repercussion on gender violence, the hearing of the Mariana Ferrer case and the case of Roberta Nascimento, a victim of transfemicide who had her body burned by a teenager in Recife, it is clear that the Journalism simplifies the issue of gender violence by only reporting events succinctly and episodicly. In this way, I understand that gender violence, in its origin and modes of production, is not perceived as a journalistic event, even though events of this nature accumulate on a daily basis. The narratives barely articulate cases, events and data on violence, and still maintain institutional sources as their main sources, especially police sources. It is also possible to perceive a differentiated narrative construction in the analyzed cases, both in the description of the violence and in the identification and treatment given to the victims, who are sometimes exposed and revictimized. Journalism does not take advantage of its position as a legitimate institution to produce more humane and interested narratives that promote public debate and the production of knowledge. However, it is possible to observe that there are ongoing changes with initiatives that work from a gender perspective, attentive to the current context and the discussions of gender and sexuality that arise through social networking sites.

We start from this event to observe the meanings about human rights that emerge from it, that is, how the social and political tensions on this theme are evidenced, which gain particular outline from the crossing with the communicational field in an intensely mediatized society. The analytical work focuses on circulation, understanding that it is in this space of disputes and negotiations that we can identify the ways in which actors from different fields appropriate symbolic products, giving them new outline. In Marielle's case, this process becomes evident due to the mobilization that the event generates around the councilwoman's image, but also the discussions on human rights that are configured in different media and mediatized spaces. The corpus of this research is constituted by journalistic articles published between the years 2018 and 2021, and by the communication actions of the Marielle Franco Institute. To work with the diversity of observables that we chose, we used the concept of mediatized case (WESCHENFELDER, 2019, 2020), from which the phenomena start to be observed considering the new dynamics of social and communicational organization. For the construction of the research case, we resorted to the evidence paradigm as an operation to track circulation clues, since this suggests the search and identification of the traits that characterize the object from the evidence that allow the elaboration of inferences that are produced from the tensioning with the concepts of mediatization, circulation and logic of mediatization, articulated according to the thinking of authors such as Braga (2012, 2015, 2017), Carlón (2017), Fausto Neto (2010, 2018), Ferreira (2018; 2019), Rosa (2019, 2020) and Verón (2013). Finally, we highlight the relevance of the debate on communication and human rights, understanding that circulation is the interactional space in which the perception of incompleteness of normative discourses is evidenced and tensioned by other actors and collectives hitherto invisible, who assume the work of producing meanings, asserting themselves as subjects of rights, as agents in the construction of rights in an intensely mediatized context.

TS is a rare chromosomal disorder that just affects women, and which, due its low frequency, undergoes a media and medical invisibility. In view of the above, an uneasiness arose about which media spaces the women with the disease and their families occupy and how they interact, thereby the research problem of this theses is configured in this way: How the interactional process of meaning production and self-elaboration develops and is modified through the communication experiences about TS on digital platforms in the context of mediatization? Therefore, through the tracks left in circulation, this study aims to comprehend the self-elaboration and the elaboration of the illness that emerge from this communication experiences and what operations are within them. So, from the evidentiary paradigm, a methodological arrangement was built with a course that involves an ethnographic inspiration and the discursive circulation analysis. In this way, posts and comments from the Turner Syndrome Global Alliance Facebook page, from a YouTube channel called Brooke TV/ Butterfly TV and from the Turner & Eu Instagram profile were analyzed, besides, interviews with the responsible for producing content on these digital platforms were conducted. The analysis was divided in two moments: the first was focused on the specific production and recognition grammars of each set of observables, the second was intended for the operations that emerged both from these grammars and from the communicational and social actions of these girls and women with the syndrome and their families. Thus, articulating the analysis with the theoretical discussions regarding mediatization, circulation, meaning production, as well as the communication and health interface, it was possible to comprehend the actions of the patients on digital platforms, such as extimacy, testimony, and self-narration. From that, it was learned that the elaborations of the disease and of the self – that emerged from the communication experiences – are responsible for a reorganization, a reframing, a self-understanding and an empowerment of the patients. Through the process of exacerbated circulation, both TS and the individuality of what it is to learn with the illness gain new outlines, because the syndrome starts to be elaborated collectively, becoming sociable.

Through the creation of an artisanal technomethodological arrangement using the combinations of intuition and archaeocartography, which articulates cartography and media archeology procedures, in addition to the invention of an operational route inspired by the idea of random access, by Nam June Paik, two archaeocartographic tours are carried out. In the first one, it appears that the world(s) of Paik's art is complex and convergent in terms of forms, technologies and aesthetics and can be divided into five major periods: Incubation, Experimentation, Transformation, Expansion and Consolidation. The main technocultural marks found in Nam June Paik are globalism, participation, unpredictability, duality, communication, coexistence, information, randomness, experimentation, playfulness, humor, zen, irony, time, memory, provocation, surveillance, politics, religiosity, flow, multiplicity, multisensoriality, hybridity, virtuality, illusion, manipulability and mutability. In the second round, four constellations were developed, named based on characteristics shared with processes and cultural manifestations in South Korea, the country of birth of the artist: Hanok discusses online environments as “places of memory” in view of the condition of (de)regenerability of Paik, Bibimbap addresses participation, collaboration and remix as expressions of audiovisual technoculture, Newtro examines images that emerge as part of the relationship between the old and the new, bringing clues to think about technostalgic brands, and Ppalli Ppalli produces and evokes senses of acceleration and speed of images in technoculture, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. The common element that runs through all the constellations is time. In the end, paikian audiovisualities, specifically in online environments, can be defined as an audiovisual quality resulting from the movements triggered by the constellations, understood as dialectical images, which, as a whole, configure a paikian galaxy, always in becoming, to the ways in which the artist put himself in flux. It endure and are (de)regenerated through a mixture of different elements (technical, aesthetic, philosophical, cultural and social, etc.), mainly bringing traces of nostalgia, experimentation and collaboration, provoking us to think, among other things, about the exacerbated exposure of schizophrenic audiovisual information.

From the understanding of the franchise as a fictional universe, we sought to outline and discuss the characteristics that make up these media systems and their functioning as a business model centered on consumption and on the engagement of fans and consumers. Using cartography and grounded theory as a methodological arrangement, an analysis was carried out that included posts made on content portals about the release of the feature film Matrix Resurrections (2021) as well as interviews and a focus group with fans and content producers involved with the fictional universe with the objective of verifying the new configurations of the franchise in the contemporary context. As a result, the thesis proposes the understanding of pop culture franchises as complex sets of elements, actors, structures, flows, etc. that are established from three main dimensions: media, marketing and consumption.

Therefore, our reflections are based on the theoretical assumptions developed in social communication researches, establishing a dialogue with concepts situated in sociology studies, mobilized for the observation of practices, operations and processes of a society in mediatization. The general aim of the research is to analyze the discursive strategies in the construction of the Gianecchini case, observing evidence of circulation and actorization operations. The materials were organized into two interdependent groups. The first is constituted by elements which look to the media biography of the actor Reynaldo Gianecchini, signaling to his affiliation with the celebrity status. The second group is composed of materials that deal with the illness of this media character and the developments of the case under the texture of media narratives. In order to account for the complexity of the object, we grouped the analysis categories in two sets, according to their nature. The concepts developed throughout the research constitute operative categories, which mobilizes concepts developed in this study. In the second set we have the analytical categories, focusing on the verbalvisual aspects of these media discourses. The reflections throughout the study allow some insights into the research object, such as the circulation and actorization operations that are projected in the several places where the event happens and the displacement of social actors for the production instance. We also alert to the clues of the discursive strategies triggered in the construction of the event and the maintenance of this public space, as new and inaccurate narrative developments are performed about the private life of the celebrity. In this sense, we understand the complexity of the event, as social actors, internal or not to the universe of media institutions, are the main characters in the typical operations of a society in mediatization.

In an attempt to complement the construction of the research problem, specific objectives are determined to articulate discussions related to privacy and security in digital culture from the perspective of technoculture audiovisualities; to formulate the concept of “technosecurity” as a symptom of contemporary technoculture, which spreads through and beyond the media, producing an ambience; and finally, to authenticate meanings of security and privacy enunciated by Facebook's interfaces. Our approach uses a methodological itinerary that deals with a contagion of initiatives, with the unfolding of cartography we were inspired by the movement of the flâneur, showing seven collections created from elective affinities that emerge from our observation, indicating that the object assumes two orders: that of materiality, referring to the path through the platform and parallel interfaces, and the order of virtualities, or the ethicities and imaginaries that emerge from the framed agencies. We authenticate some ethicities that are updated in frames and frames of meaning associated with imaginaries that communicate meanings of surveillance, security, childhood, care, fear, protection, trust, judicialization and anonymity. As our investigation demonstrates, the photograph of the technosecurity galaxy by the FB environment is formed by three constellations: Programmed Trust, Vulnerable User and Contemporary Technosecurity Ambience. We understand as part of the research contribution an identification of the construction of a multifaceted profile of the user that runs through this environment according to the ethics circumstantiated by the interface. We understand that FB would be a complex object of frames, ethicities and framings that carry meanings, revealing imaginaries of FB itself, but not just restricted to it, but as a symptom of contemporary digital culture, in which it is a constituent part and feeds back to remain operating based on the identity senses typical of technosecurity. It is in these constructs that they are updated in virtualities that make up a complex architecture, constantly recalling memories from the interface images carefully developed to build trust through a dichotomous promise between freedom and control.

On one hand, federations and tech companies responsible for VAR patent try to legitimize the implementation of the video assistant referee as a solution for old problems in football refereeing related. On the other hand, adoption process showed discrepancies between what is offered and what is produced while meanings that tension on circulation envi-ronment (FAUSTO NETO, 2010; 2016; 2018; 2020 and VERÓN, 1997; 2004; 2013; 2014). In contact zones (FAUSTO NETO, 2018) we seek to understand both what emerges as strat-egies and discursivities produced by the specialist assigned to observe VAR’s work in tradi-tional institutions of the media field (RODRIGUES, 2000) and digital networks. Field in which social actors in reception engage in many ways turning the communication ambience complex. We seek to observe the interpenetrations (LUHMANN, 2011; 2016) between the political field, sportive, economic and mediatic from the investigation of circulation of CBF VAR, meanings about the innovation that materialize in this work from the description of the arrangements that constitute an interactional device (BRAGA; 2011; 2020). Our work there-fore relies on a new interpretative effort of the dispositif. For our analyses we constituted a Mediatized Case in an attempt to capture innovation updates between 2018 and 2022. The process of collecting evidence and the selection of empirical materiality resulted in the choice of three occurrences that organize the Case. Circumstances related to the use of VAR in the football field that unfold in the media, allowing the perception of collateral issues that make us think about the game, about technology, about surveillance and about innovations in the mediatized society. In this sense, we try to describe and reflect a new way of playing the game, innovating and living in the world (GOMES, 2017).

It does this through an action-research that begins with a netnography on Tumblrs, later brings together a focus group of 18 autistic people around Brazil and, together with them, creates their own Tumblr of autistic characters. Finally, the thesis brings a proposal, mixing the empirical with the theoretical, to call this form of communication and interaction not only headcanon, but Reppems: Representation of Characters and Personas in Social Minorities. This work is exemplified with artistic drawings, from the glossary to the fanart maps, carried out as an in-depth study of the characters proposed as autistic.

To reach this main goal, are contextualized aspects related to the articulations of transvestite and transsexual women in the organization of social and political movements, the media visibilities and the relations with the Brazilian economic and political scenery; situated the communicational elements that constitute the existences and citizenships of transvestite and transsexual women; reconstituted the communicational trajectories of transvestite and transsexual women and their relations with media to understand how they participate in the construction of their identities and corporalities; and analyzed the experiences and senses from the dialogues with transvestites and transsexual women to elucidate and think about dimensions connected to the construction of transcommunicative citizenship. The research is orientated by the transmethodological perspective, combining theories and methods from different areas in its constructive network. Methodologically, are used bibliographical research, research of the research, theoretical research, contextual research, exploratory and systematic empirical research. The empirical research was built in collaboration with six transvestites and transsexual interlocutors, from different regions in Brazil, with whom were accomplished in-depth semi-structured interviews in Rio Grande do Sul and at Casa Florescer, a shelter for transvestite and transsexual women in São Paulo. To understand the contexts and realities of the interlocutors and from transvestites and transsexual women in Brazil, are problematized the media visibilities of trans people in media, the political representatives in the ambits of the institutional politics, the working of a normative cisgender system and the systemic violence of a necrobiopolitics. The theoretical perspectives include the reflection about cisgender as a social normative pattern, transgender, the gender as central theoretical lens, the self-identifications and self-determinations of gender from transvestite and transsexual women, the feminilities and womanities, the trans coroporalities and identities, and the transcommunicative citizenship. Are analyzed the self-identifications of transvestites and transgender women interlocutors of the thesis and the production of their corporalities; the media experiences and inspirations and the affectation in their corporalities; and the construction of transcommunicative citizenship in six dimensions: philosophical/epistemological; political; popular/from the streets; resistance; hope; and affection.

To this end, in 2018, it creates the television show O Brasil que eu Quero, in which he offers the communicant subject the possibility of inserting and displaying his demand in one of his television news programs, giving him the title too “spokesperson” of the actors of the city in which he lives. Through the framework of analysis, denunciation, collection, visibility in a simulacrum that allows a direct message to “sensations” and “exercise of citizenship”. In a pedagogical tone, the journalists wrote as characteristics about how the spectators elaborated the product. And if the exhibition space for audiovisual material were Jornal Nacional, the trust and representation would be even greater, according to an exploratory research with a sample carried out in the context of the state of Mato Grosso do Sul, in the municipalities of Campo Grande, Dourados, Três Lagoas and Corumbá. So that, by “giving voice” to the citizen, Globo positioned itself as a public media space in which, using the discourse of holder of rights and duties, it legitimizes its need to be heard and to have a response, contributing to (of) formation of the notion of citizenship by the media system. Through the transmethodological perspective (MALDONADO, 2008) the investigative process revolved around the problem: What Brazil does Globo want to show? What future is this represented by the Brazil that I want? What does the discourse say for the communicant subject to receive the title of spokesperson by the Globo media system? These concerns culminated in the problem about the role of Globo in the cultural construction/formation of the concept of citizenship for the Brazil that I want. Thus, the media conglomerate Globo, through complex power relations, moves the interface between culture, politics and communication, presents itself as one of the enabling paths to the formation of emancipated social agents who exercise their full citizenship, reducing them to rights and duties, in the the words on the board: the citizen is the spokesperson for a municipality. However, in the same way that it enables such openness to society, Globo, like O Príncipe Eletrônico (IANNI, 1999), with its nebulosity, maintains its own grammar, forms of circulation and selection of which demands and materials can be displayed, as well as as its own definition of citizenship, not making transparent the criteria that define the reasons for being accepted or not, using strategies that cooperate to maintain its hegemony and being a set of private companies, of the neoliberal capitalist system.

The conceptual references on mediatization are: environment and ambience Among the authors works are (Gomes, 2017) mediatization as a mental experience and algorithms as logical means (Verón, 2014), with the concept of ambience; Behs and Ferreira (2019), Ferreira (2020) and circulation with the perspective of the materialization of mental experience (Fausto Neto (2020) and Rosa (2016). In interfaces, Syd Field (2001) with the idea of building characters and the conception of turning points in and the concept of gamification proposed by Garris, Ahlers, Driskell (2002) called Game Cycle. The interactors in movie-game works. As corpus we selected the game-movie Black Mirror – Bandersnatch and the movie-game The Dark Pictures Anthology – Man of Medan. By analogies, observations were also considered as analogical hypotheses with other movie-games such as Late Shift. Theoretical frameworks that discuss the algorithm and the space of semiosis, social imaginary, avatar and metaverse are tensioned. Our central questions proposed are: to research what are the relationships between logics of production and logics of recognition in the context in which the algorithmic means are means of the means, starting to manage the means of content and interaction (Ferreira, 2020); How is the agency between the algorithm and the interactor done, what are the possible paths and, consequently, what is at stake in this relationship? The objective is to understand the phenomena involved in the constitution of narratives from the assemblage of algorithms; to map the perception of the interactors in the face of the tentative control imposed by what the researcher calls devices of affection and allusions; in the context of gamification, to reflect on the functioning of the processes of materialization of the mental experience in a movie-game or game-film. As methodological contributions, we analyzed the production system and, through experimentation, we used a cartographic process – referenced in the to a Grounded Theory (Fragoso, Recuero and Amaral, 2013, p.84). The method is guided, being guided also by Peirce and the processes of abduction, deduction and induction (Peirce, 2005). In the course of the investigation, we look for clues as to how we can think about the paths taken and the semiosis agency and what can we understand from this new narrative format since they are tensioned by the uses, practices and tentative appropriations. The work contemplates the formulation of a previous analysis as a reference for the development of a theoretical foundation that seeks to understand the phenomena involved in the constitution of narratives from the agency of algorithms, the tentative control imposed by what the researcher calls devices of affections and allusions of how in gamification the processes of materialization of the mental experience work in a movie-game or game-film. Theoretical frameworks that discuss the algorithm and the space of semiosis, social imaginary, avatar and metaverse are tensioned. Experiments were carried out to collect data on how the semiosis process is carried out and how paths can be made within the interactive process of games.

In this sense, the hypothetical-inductive research method was used, since it was based on particular observations (premises), for conceptual generalizations (conclusions). And these particular observations came from two empirical ones: First, the case of the mother accused of killing her own daughter with cocaine overdose in the bottle (Daniele Toledo), occurred in 2006, in Taubaté/SP; second, the confrontation between police and homelessland in Eldorado dos Carajás/PA, in 1996, when it resulted in 19 deaths in a violent confrontation with numerous factual developments. To account for this observation, different conceptual frameworks were mobilized such as media distribution (Eliseo Verón, Fausto, Pedro Gomes and others), circulation (José Luiz Braga, Ana Paula Rosa), interpenetration (Nicklas Luhmann), fields (Bourdieu) and others, narrowing dialogues between the contributions of communication and law. In both events, interpenetration operations of the legal and communicational systems took place, changing the direction of investigations, altering procedural orders, questioning the legal and journalistic doing and finally, the consequences of these crossings reflected in society as a whole, changing the case approaches themselves and providing reflections on themes and attitudes that overlap the two cases and apply to all practice of life.

Little is said about image in the context of spiritism, but an iconicity arises with the urgency of preserving the symbolism of this religiosity established just over 170 years ago in a society transformed by media processes. Starting from evidence about the musealization of spiritism, the objective is to investigate how spiritist museum practices elaborate a relationship of iconicity in mediatization. This qualitative and exploratory research is based on the idea of a mediatized case study, by means of a survey and visitation in a circuit constituted by 27 spiritist museums, carrying out 17 in-depth interviews and the production of and collecting photographs and images. The analysis is structured in two parts, offering a cartography and a dynamogram on the experience of images in circulation from spiritist museums, according to their possibilities and challenges in mediatization. In the first one, we elaborated a cartography of the practices, recognizing, in each initiative, the mediatized museum practices, their operations and their symptoms. In the second part, we seek to be guided by the anachronism of the images to explore the circulation of the imaginary through a methodological exercise with image boards. It is our intention to propose this methodological work at the intersection between the studies of the imaginary and mediatization. Relating to museum practices and the iconicity expressed in them, we will propose that mediatization has been mobilizing a kind of iconic turn in spiritism, a doctrine that, for the first time, seems to develop a thought about its images. The case studied stresses theorizations about mediatization and the imaginary based on empirical observation and dialogues, based on Communication Sciences, with Museology, Social Research on Spiritualism and Studies of the Imaginary, contributing to the understanding of unexplored interfaces.
