En un proyecto europeo la misma dedicación horaria de un investigador radicado en Alemania o Inglaterra cuesta el DOBLE de lo que cuesta un investigador con sede en España. El secreto a voces de la ciencia en nuestro país es que hacemos ciencia de frontera a precio de los años 90.

Are you interested in #maps and in how underrepresented demographics are represented? Have you ever considered that maps are not #inclusive enough and might not be working for everyone (and maybe for you)?

We have prepared a series of 3 workshops to design and build alternative maps based on […]

Happy to share my last #academic paper, published on New Media & Society and authored with Nate Tkacz and Fangzhou Zhang about our #research on #twittermigration #xodus

Eventful migration: Rethinking social media migration with help from Elon Musk’s sink […]

[Original post on scholar.social]
A screenshot of the paper on New Media & Society, showing the title and abstract. The abstract states: Using the 2022 Twitter to Mastodon migration as a case study, this article contributes a new understanding of social media migration (SMM). It begins with a review of existing studies of SMM, showing how migration is often understood as a combination of ‘push and pull factors’. We suggest a need to widen the conceptual scope for how we approach SMM in ways that more directly tie such movements to specific questions of power, agency and events that ripple through digital cultures. Drawing on social media account analysis, a survey of recently migrated Mastodon users, content from high-profile Twitter users and other media commentaries, we re-present the migration in order to detail our ‘eventful’ theory of migration. Eventful social media migration is comprised of five elements: an initial X factor; the emergence of a critical voice; a collective platform consciousness; an observable migration; and a wider terrain transformation.

Do you know of any #feminist contributing guide like the ones seen on #github?

I'm looking for a good template to incorporate to a project, so any #help would be appreciated

Yesterday, @BBCRadio4 spent the first 16' of their #6oclocknews to "cover" what a fascist politician in the opposition said about #migrants (spoiler: nothing good).

This is how fascism is winning. By coopting public media to broadcast their messages and normalising their narratives and their […]

Over 3 years we opened Cultural Anthropology to Spanish submissions. In this time, we received ZERO manuscripts from native English speakers whose fieldwork is based in Spanish-speaking countries. Food for thinking about epistemic geographic inequalities...

I've been using @delta for some months and I'm totally in love with it.

The concept of using emails as chats is equally simple and powerful.
And I love the fact that it just works as we are used to in other #im apps, but without being locked to a platform, and having true encryption.
