Terri Senft: Writing: Diss Synopsis - 0 views
-
Martin Fritz on 29 Mar 10bin zuällig in ubi drüber gestossen, schaut auf den ersten blick ganz interessant aus, wenngleich für unser thema im engeren sinn nicht relevant, als beispiel für den weiteren netz-diskurs im angloamerikanischen raum: This dissertation is a critical and ethnographic study of camgirls: women who use webcams and interactive journals for autobiographical purposes over the Internet. While conducting this research, the author also lived as a camgirl herself. The dissertation's over-arching question is, "What does it mean for feminists to speak about the personal as political in a networked society that simultaneously encourages women to 'represent' through confession, celebrity and sexual display, and punishes too much visibility with conservative censure and backlash?"
