MediaAnalysis Project
1) structural analysis - all units of a work of art/a medium (Structure, organisation, language, etc.)2) production aesthetic - historical change of structures, Contents, strategies and technics3) reception aesthetic-Personal and emotional perception of artistic works/ Media
Methods we have already used and how they have determined our analysis

• What is the piece under scrutiny about? • Why did you choose it? • How does it relate to the topic of science and technology? And what makes it interesting in relation to that topic? • How does the topic apply to your chosen medium item? What does analyzing this medium enable you to claim about science?

"Many current social issues stem from humanity’s struggle with nuance. Social media is not known for respecting or encouraging nuance, but science is. And if scientific discussion can add a drop of nuance to the internet, who knows how far the ripples could go."(https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.abo2409)
Morgan Daly DedyoUniversity of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia
"Social media platforms build algorithms to display contents that maximize engagement, rewarding sensationalism and soundbites and penalizing more nuanced discourse on complex issues."(https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.abo2409)
