Dear Patricia, Martin, Nina, MediaAnthro, Harvard Archaeology, All, 


Following on Mark Peterson's recent interesting comments, and although this just closed, I'd like to contribute to this post-closed "Media migration by Patricia G. Lange" MediaAnthropology discussion further, it being about 9:30 am Pacific Time in the morning on the date of closing, in this "[Medianthro] Now open: E-seminar 68 ... " 

Greetings and thanks for your interesting media migration thinking, anthropologically. Regarding  

1
"Media migration may be defined as a phenomenon in which people stop using one site and adopt another ..."
Glad to announce that CC-4 OCW.MIT.EDU -centric wiki World Univ & Sch is migrating to WikiBase.Cloud (and to see how Wikibase.cloud works with WUaS Wikidata and WUaS MediaWiki, see, at bottom: http://worlduniversityandschool.org/AcademicPress.html - which Academic Press at WUaS is planned in not only Wikidata's ~300 languages, but in all 7,151 known living languages, and with machine translation and machine learning);

In CC-4 ocw.mit.edu -centric wiki World University and School's migrating to WikiBase.Cloud (from https://www.wbstack.com a wikibase stack), regarding WUaS's Wikidata's 'backend structured knowledge' database (in 300 languages regarding Wikipedia too), this may also benefit people in the following ways, and in regards to Work World University and School planning to code, brainstorming-wise, for all 7.9 billion  people on planet in 200 countries and speakers of 7,151 known living languages, each a Wikidata Pin#. World University and School is seeking to facilitate combining free universal education that is wiki (anthropologically too, eg - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Anthropology & https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Archaeology & https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Visual_Anthropology & ), and people to people, again among speakers of 7,151 known living languages, with even UBI experiments of something like Stanford Mine Pi cryptocurrency (https://minepi.com/sgkmac), and to end poverty (by distributing a main single cryptocurrency in all ~200 countries, backed in one way or another by most of ~200 countries' central banks).


2
"... media migration tends to be more permanent and constitutes a break—practically, socially, or emotionally—from prior media''
Glad to share that in further developing the new Academic Press at WUaS, that WUaS will seek to develop not only in WUaS Wikidata, WUaS Wikibase.cloud and WUaS MediaWiki, in Wikidata's 300 languages, and more, but also in GDocs, with GTranslate, GTensorFlowAI (cum WUaS Wikidata) and in planning to publish to both paper, as paper books, etc., but also to a new digital #wuAsVR platform, in a #RealisticVirtualEarthForAnthropology - https://twitter.com/hashtag/RealisticVirtualEarthForAnthropology?src=hashtag_click (and see select Tweets with this #HashTag below, as well as other #Hastags) - making a clear break from 'Nozama' (eg http://amazon.com/author/scottmacleodworlduniversity), and related online distribution and printer services;   

The first book that the Academic Press at World University and School published was an Actual-Virtual, Physical-Digital Harbin Hot Springs' Ethnography "Naked Harbin Ethnography: Hippies, Warm Pools, Counterculture, Clothing-Optionality & Virtual Harbin (2016)." Glad to have recently added an Impressum or Imprint to the Academic Press at WUaS as well, and regarding the WUaS Wikibase.cloud media migration - http://worlduniversityandschool.org/AcademicPress.html (at bottom too).

"...the motivations for migration, including how interactive sites are structured, and to what extent media sites and participatory environments are perceived as facilitating or complicating public self-expression and sociality."

Why are World Univ & Sch and the WUaS Press (3 legal entities in the USA and California, and see the bottom of the Academic Press at WUaS page, and here - http://worlduniversityandschool.org/)  leaving a certain medium and migrate to another? 

To grow CC-4 OCW.MIT.EDU -centric wiki World Univ & Sch in each of ~200 countries, for CC-4 courseware centric free-to-students' online Bachelor, PhD, Law,, MD and IB high school or similar degrees (with Anthropology majors - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Subjects - and search on Anthropology, and then check out the CC-4 MIT OCW eventually for credit) and in all 7,151 as wiki schools for open teaching and learning - by making, creating, generating new information technologies and IT platforms collaboratively.

media migration spatially? 
ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy as media anthropology theory, method and practice? Adding pictures, videos, coding, AI, machine learning, #Text In the SideBar (#TextInTheSideBar)  Avatar Bots, both realistic and fantastic to a single realistic virtual earth (think Google Street View with time slider TensorFlowAI Translate with realistic Avatar Bots Electronic Medical Records) for further participant observation, and 

You can hop into this realistic virtual earth here in front of the Harbin Hot Springs' gatehouse - 
and 'walk' down the road toward Middletown a spell, and add a picture or a video, and eventually talk with other avatar bots, and add text in the sidebar too ... so in a sense migrate yourself as media :)


4a
Thanks to Tufts' University Anthropologist Nick Seaver's further contribution to ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy theory ...


(How will Film-To-3D Apps in migrating media into a Realistic Virtual Earth ForAnthropologists and ...ForArchaeologists ...ForJournalists help  parse such Houston Chronicle headlines on another aspect of migration that anthropologists have long studied - 
"State troopers ordered by Gov. Greg Abbott to inspect every commercial truck coming from Mexico earlier this month found zero drugs, weapons or any type of contraband, according to data released by the Department of Public Safety to The Texas Tribune."


With regards "to nuances in ethnographic examples [that] also invites reflection on what exactly constitutes “novelty” [...] Are the sites
people migrating “toward” actually novel ... ? I would add to this conversation that the making of novelty by all of us who are not only consumers of media migration affordances, but also producers of this is a significant aspect for further media migration anthropological research. 

Best wishes, Scott

Dear Patricia (if I may),

thank you for sharing your inspiring paper on media migration with us. Your paper nicely points out the analytical possibilities that the concept can provide, yet it also indicates that reflections of scholars in migration and diaspora studies might not be directly translated into media anthropology or that there are at least limits to it when doing so. I also appreciate your reply to Philipp’s comments, which made me think about the temporalities of phenomena related to media migration, especially with regard to notions of “the cool” and “the novel”. While I agree that, when looking for reasons why people leave a certain medium and migrate to another, coolness and novelty are insufficient explanations (in many cases and certainly in the ones you describe), I think that there is more to discover in the accounts of your interlocutors with regard to their conceptualizations of time. In my view, the quote of K80Blog (p.11) comprises a particularly interesting example of temporal hierarchization when MySpace is said to “had its time” and YouTube is regarded “on its way out” because “the novelty of it is kind of worn away”. This is mentioned in one breath along with the commercialisation of YouTube. K80Blog thus perceives commercialization (or corporatization) as a phenomenon that strips away the novelty of YouTube and makes it into something old that one should leave behind (in temporal terms) or migrate away from (in spatial terms). What I want to say with this brief interpretation of K80Blog’s statement is that ideas (and practices) of media migration might be closely associated with the temporal hierarchization of media.

I think I can discern this migration-temporalization nexus also in how you characterize media migration as “a visible and meaningful break from one platform or media to use another” (p.4). Such a break, I contend, is always also a break with the past; not with the past per se, i.e. not with all previous media practices, but with the immediate past that extends into the present and has – for whatever reason – become undesirable. Such a conception of time has become particularly widespread in the modern era (whenever that has begun) and is not restricted to Western contexts. One can encounter Islamic reformists in Indonesia today, to refer to an example from my fieldwork, who reject most of Islam’s intellectual history (including most of its present representations) and only want to be inspired by Islam as it was practiced by the time of the Prophet Muhammed. Although this is a completely different example from the ones you discuss in your paper, the temporal dynamic we encounter in them is very similar: both examples exhibit a break with the immediate past while being inspired by a more distant one. The spatial dimension is, however, a more complicated one. In the case of the YouTubers this entails the virtual movement to another platform, whereas in the case of Indonesian Islamic reformists it might go hand in hand with migrating to another city, if one’s pious efforts in one place turn out to be fruitless, but movement is not at all a precondition for the temporal hierarchizations of Islamic history. What we might learn from this short comparison is that hierarchizations of time and space do not necessarily depend on each other, but that in the case of media migration, it seems, one can hardly do without the other.

Martin

Betreff: [Medianthro] Now open: E-seminar 68 - Media migration by Patricia G. Lange

Dear all,

I am happy to announce the opening of e-seminar 68 - Media migration by
Patricia G. Lange (California College of the Arts). The e-seminar will run
from today and until April 29 (that is, a bit shorter than our usual two
weeks).

First, our discussant, Philipp Budka (University of Vienna), will post his
comments. Subsequently, Patricia will post her reply after which I will
open the seminar for all to contribute.

To post a comment to the e-seminar, write directly to
medianthro@lists.easaonline.org. You need to be subscribed to the list from
the email you are writing from.

If you have not yet had the chance to read Media migration, it can be
downloaded here: https://easaonline.org/networks/media/eseminars.

I am looking forward to what I expect will be an interesting seminar about
Patricia's thought-provoking text.

Cheers,
Nina
