Themes and scope
The digital communication evidences, in the last decades, significant transformations in the daily life and in the habits of audiences. Through this process, the construction of a new ecosystem is observed, in which technology becomes invisible, despite its significant relevance. However, we cannot say that the devices are at the centre of the transformations. The adaptations and reinterpretations of the users dialogue permanently with the strategies proposed by the industry within the interfaces. As a whole, these changes influence the perception of space, time, memory, among other aspects. And, viewed with a historical perspective, they also influence culture.
On a daily basis, these transformations are evident in online social networks, in the applications available for mobile communication, in the constant narration about life at any time, in the possibility of personalizing the contents - some aspects which can be seen interrelated on the screen of a smartphone. In that sense, we live in a software culture that, in its development, has made such activities more and more friendly. And there are many contemporary users who produce and consume in this great network, with actions mediated by the sense of place and the stories lived. This issue, aligned with the Thematic Group 19, Digital Communication, Networks and Processes, of the Latin American Association of Communication Researchers -ALAIC-, proposes to reconstruct an overview of the state of research in new online media and processes, particularly with a comparative perspective in the Ibero-American context, from the following thematic axes:
