  This article addresses the production, distribution and global expansion of the online teen drama, SKAM/SHAME (2015–2017), produced by the Norwegian public service broadcaster NRK. The article combines perspectives on transmedia storytelling with production studies and studies of public service broadcasting to investigate the distinct production, publishing and promotion models underpinning SKAM, as well as its public service mission. Furthermore, it addresses SKAM’s transition from a ‘secret’ online teen drama targeting young Norwegians in season one to a global cult phenomenon with viewers and fans in all age groups and on all continents in seasons three and four and relates this expansion to recent shifts within the television industry.

  This article considers fans’ playful digital practices and focuses on the play moods that are co-constructed in online fan communities. We analyse how these play moods are negotiated across the life course for participating fans. Play moods are closely tied to the playful modes of fan practices, and by gaining a greater understanding of the moods that fans engage in at different stages of their life course we gain new insights into fan play as it relates to issues of age-related norms in fan communities. Specifically, this article analyses the Norwegian teenage streaming drama SKAM (Shame) (NRK, 2015–17), which was produced for a target audience of 16-year-old Norwegian girls but ended up capturing the hearts of people of all ages across Scandinavia and internationally. This study is based on interviews with 43 Scandinavian fans aged between 13 and 70. The participants were all active on social media (Facebook, Instagram, the show’s blog, etc.) while the show was on the air and the interviews offers insights into issues of age-appropriateness as it relates to fan practices. As such, fans ‘police’ both themselves and each other based on perceptions of age, while also engaging in practices that are by nature playful and may be considered subjectively and culturally ‘youthful’ or ‘childish’. The article combines theory of play and fan studies with a focus on the life course and cultural gerontology in order to highlight these tendencies in the SKAM fandom.

  With spindoctoring, publicity seeking stunts and evidence of mal-practice, public relations is easily associated with the development of post-truth society. The elevation of bullshit as political coinage presents a challenge for the rational public debate which the public relations profession at large should have an interest in maintaining. In this introduction, we briefly highlight some of these challenges for public relations. We point to how papers in the special section tie into these challenges, by for instance, helping to understand the construction of truth, how to construct a defense for legitimate public relations and engage with publics, as well as to build a professional practice through developing and measuring communication.

  Purpose: Meta reviews are central for mapping the state of the field, consolidating the heterogeneous public relations body of knowledge, and pointing to new potential research directions. Habermas is one of the most influential contemporary social theorists and his work has repeatedly been used in public relations scholarship. While some have maintained that his work has been most influential in the development of public relations theory, this stream of research has never been reviewed empirically. Design/methodology/approach: In this paper, we present a bibliometric literature review of 263 research articles published between 1980 and 2016. A network analysis of these publications based on the technique of bibliographic coupling was used to identify common forms of application, research themes, as well as patterns of impact. Findings: Results show that the use of Habermas has grown significantly, specifically in the recent decade. At the same time, researchers have a narrow focus specifically on earlier developments in the theory. Finally, we discover three main topical research clusters that have been influenced by the theory: public relations and the public sphere, dialogic stakeholder relationships, as well as public relations and communication ethics. Originality/value: Our findings map out an important stream of scholarship in the field by showing were public relations scholars have been and were the research community has not ventured yet. Based on the results of this analysis we propose directions for research to advance future theory development in public relations using Habermas’ work.

  Det kan være grunn til å spørre om vi har fått en følelsesmessig dreining og en ny form for sosial kontroll. Stadig klages det over at samfunnsdebatten flyter over av krenkelser, hatytringer, moraliseringer, polarisering og lavt saklighetsnivå. Det interessante er at dette ikke bare gjelder vanlige folks deltakelse i kommentarfeltene. Det påfallende er at også professorer, politikere og etablerte aktører i samfunnsdebattens elitesjikt snubler i designet til Facebook, som ikke favoriserer langsom tenkning.

  Mye er sagt om kunstig intelligens, men den mangler sunn fornuft. Algoritmer er ikke mennesker. Mennesker kan resonnere, det kan ikke maskiner eller algoritmer. En annen sentral problemstilling er at algoritmer mangler transparens i hvordan de de kommer frem til viktige avgjørelser, sortering og kategoriseringer. Utfordringen er også en enorm skjevhet i maktforholdet. Algoritmene vet masse om oss, men vi vet ingen ting om dem. Derfor må vi begynne å stille helt nye og eksistensielle spørsmål: Hva gjør algoritmene med oss og samfunnet? Dette er kanskje særlig viktig for oss i Norge å ta en debatt på det. Norge er blant verdens meste digitaliserte land, og vi er i økende grad styrt og påvirket av algoritmer laget i Silicon Valley. Hvordan vil det påvirke samfunnsutviklingen her hjemme?

  Online drama and real-time publishing have become an established ‘format’, especially in the Nordic countries. The ‘first wave’ was headed by the Norwegian hit show SKAM (NRK, 2015-2017), but the ‘second wave’ includes both several SKAM remakes as well as new successors in all the Nordic countries as well as beyond. In short, playing with time and platforms has become on key strategy for many storytellers trying to reintroduce a sense of liveness and realness. What can we learn from the ‘two waves’ of real-time storytelling? What are the pros and cons of this way of producing and publishing online drama? And, is it possible to renew this format when the rules in the TV market is constantly changing?

• Sundet, Vilde Schanke (2019). 'Youtification' of drama through real-time storytelling. Show summary

  For broadcasters aiming to re-connect with a younger audience, online drama published in real-time has become an attractive new ‘format’. The ‘first wave’of this format became internationally known through the hit show SKAM (NRK, 2015-2017), but the ‘second wave’includes both several SKAM remakes as well as new successors. What can we learn from the ‘two waves’of real-time storytelling? What are the prosand cons of this way of producing and publishing online drama? And, is it still possible to renew the format when the rules in the TV market is constantly changing? In this talk, I address how recent trends within the television industry change the production and publishing of youth television, and the particular role so-called real-time drama play in this context. More precisely, I discuss how real-time drama bring forwards many new opportunities for television players—allowing them to test new storytelling models and industry-audience relations—but also give rise to new challenges and dilemmas—including hard-to-handle third-party-partnerships and unintended fan activity. The presentation is based on my recent study of digital flagship productions within the Norwegian public service broadcaster NRK, which incorporates 50 interviews with key executives, including many people working at SKAM and its main successor (blank, NRK, 2018-).

  The datafication of music listening Over the last decade music streaming has become the dominant way of listening to music in many parts of the world, and is currently the single largest revenue source in the music business (IFPI, 2018). With the move form physical LPs and CDs to online listening, the possibility for tracking usage has become possible on a completely new scale, and with a multitude of purposes, from calculating revenue and equity, to decisions on what to release, where to tour, how to maintain a relationship between artists and fans. The shift from ownership- to access-based models of music distribution (Wikström, 2013), has hence led to datafication of music usage. Datafication as a term was first coined by Viktor Mayer-Schönberger and Kenneth Cukier in 2013 and describes a broad range of phenomena where our everyday life is quantified, analyzed, and becomes possible to track and used in predictive analysis. Van Dijk (2014) discusses datafication in relation to surveillance and “life mining” or “dataveillance” by social media platforms. Prey (2016) shows how datafication has become an important part of the business of streaming providers such as Spotify and Pandora, and how a multitude of data points are gathered, including adjusting the volume button, or skipping, and analyzed by the services, in order to make decisions and algorithmically based recommendations. This paper asks how different stakeholders in music business use metrics for different strategic purposes, and the role trust in metrics plays in decision making and everyday use. It is well known that access to the different data points from music streaming usage, and the resources to analyze these, varies greatly between different stakeholders. Only the streaming services themselves have access to all the data harvested by the service. Most have also devoted much resources and competence into analyzing and utilizing this data. While the three most powerful labels (with a market share of around 75% of the recorded music industry) also have tremendous resources, they only gain insight into the metrics pertaining the artists they represent and/or own the rights to (apart from the monthly grand total of streams, and various generalized insight). Furthermore, they receive only limited data about the users, not – for instance – personal data of each user, or the comprehensive listening history of each individual user, listening device etc. Smaller labels, managers, intermediaries and artists, have had much more limited access to the different music metrics. However, the last few years Spotify (in particular) has made more data available for artists, brands and other intermediaries, with increased flexibility to harness this. Datafication hence seems to have taken an increasing role, presumably in order to strengthen ties to the music business and capitalize on their

  The topic of this dissertation is intimate partner violence and abuse (IPVA) among Northern- European teenagers, with an extended focus on the role of digital media in such behavior. The dissertation covers several aspects of IPVA, hereunder: prevalence, associated factors, and impact of teenage IPVA within a sample of Norwegian teenagers; the grey area between intimacy practices and abusive behaviors; characteristics of digital IPVA victimization among Norwegian and English teenagers; a review of research on associated factors to digital IPVA, both perpetration and victimization; and, teenagers’ own thoughts about prevention and intervention of teenage IPVA. The overarching theoretical framework for this dissertation is the theory of institutionalized individualization. My findings show high prevalence of IPVAims; that intimacy and intimacy practices play a central part in facilitating and exacerba within the sample, and that such violence and abuse can have serious negative impacts on victting aspects of teenage IPVA; that digital media has a significant role in much violent and abusive behavior and tends to co-occur with in-person IPVA; that there is great overlap between factors associated with digital IPVA and in-person IPVA; and finally, that teenagers request more information and knowledge about what constitutes healthy intimate relationships, alongside information about harmful and destructive behavior in such relationships. Moreover, I have found that certain characteristics of individualization – including its effect on intimacy – interplays with violent and abusive behavior in intimate relationships, perhaps facilitating certain forms of perpetration and victimization, while at the same time burdening the involved with the responsibility of the violence and abuse, even when aspects of such harmful behavior might be anchored in certain still-prevailing societal structures.

  PANEL: "How is music streaming shaping popular music culture?" Over the last decade music streaming has become the dominant way of listening to music in many parts of the world, and is currently the single largest revenue source in the music business. This panel addresses how the turn to music streaming in important ways influences the way musicians are producing music, making a living, how audiences listen and discover music, and how the streaming economy and business models influence the way artists and rights holders are paid. While music streaming in many ways is a success story – bringing a generation back to paying for music many previously ‘downloaded for free’ – it seems clear that streaming brings new challenges and an unprecedented concentration of power and money, that need to be addressed and amended, in order to have a sustainable and a diverse music culture in the future. The empirical data behind the presentations in the panel builds on several recent and current projects ranging from in depth user studies (experience sampling method), focus groups, in interviews with industry actors, and 'big data’ analysis of streaming usage patterns. ### PAPER: "How the revenue share model of music streaming services made Spotify’s ‘clickfarms’ scandals, ‘playlist payola’ and Tidal’s streaming scams possible, and how it can be fixed (Maasø)" ## One of the major shortcomings and areas of conflict in the streaming era has been artist payment and revenue share. Recently, several scandals have increased the criticism of the current streaming model: the ongoing TIDAL scandal where someone inside TIDAL is believed to have added 320 million streams to Kanye West and Beyoncé, and the Spotify ‘click farm’ uncovered in Bulgaria, where 1200 fake accounts had generated $2-3 million in revenue and several accounts of ‘playlist payola’. In all cases, the pro rata model for revenue distribution has been exploited to benefit some artists over the rest. The paper explains the revenue share model and shows how it makes foul play possible. An alternative user-centric model (Maasø, 2014) – where each user’s subscription fee would be divided according to the artist each user listened to each month – is presented. This model would arguably have made the scams difficult or impossible to perform. The paper argues for the need of transparency and accountability in the streaming business, and the need to build and manage trust for the model to be sustainable.

• Yazdani, Sara R. (2019). Self-Sufficient Images: Art, Media and Ecologies in the Works of Wolfgang Tillmans. Show summary

  In a conversation between the German artist Wolfgang Tillmans and curator Hans Ulrich Obrist which took place in the artist’s London studio in 2007, Obrist points out that Tillmans tends to put an “equal emphasis” on the single picture, as well as on the “complex groupings and installations” of images. Tillmans agrees, emphasizing that he treats his images as “self-sufficient entities.” Assisted by various media technologies, the artist has compiled an archive of images that today consists of more than 4,000 works. When organizing these works in books and galleries and museum spaces, Tillmans performs what the present study sees as a unique way to put images into constellations. If Tillmans’ images are, as he claims, “self-sufficient entities,” how is this self-sufficiency negotiated in his works? What is the relation between his larger constellations of images and the concept of the self-sufficient image? These are the crucial questions investigated in this dissertation. The dissertation investigates what I see as three significant stages in the artistic work of Tillmans: First, his use of the digital photocopier in the 1980s work Approaches and the 1994 exhibition Sonne München, second, his turn to abstraction and the paradigmatic exhibition if one thing matters, everything matters at Tate Britain in 2003, third, his move to the digital camera with the project Neue Welt in 2009. Through a close reading of the materiality as well as the motifs of his images, I suggest that his works should be interpreted not as mere representations but as types of beings. Through the optics of the process ontologies of Gilbert Simondon and Gilles Deleuze, and the media archaeology of Wolfgang Ernst, I discuss how Tillmans’ mode of constellating images reveals a relational conceptualization of photography as the medium enters the digital—a conceptualization attuned to what this study defines as an image ecological practice. Historically contextualizing Tillmans’ practice with reference to artworks from the 1920s and 1960s which have explored visual art in comparable relational terms, the dissertation discusses how Tillmans’ practice creates relationships between bodies, technologies, nature and things. I argue that this practice brings forth questions of sexuality, bodies, homoeroticism, nature, the HIV crisis and xenophobia in ways that challenge identity politics, subject-object dualism and the anthropocentric world-view. This dissertation suggests that to trace the “self-sufficiency” of Tillmans’ photographic art involves a rethinking of the materiality of photography.
