Ocean oxygen data
A global coordination and continuous synthesis of interoperable data related to biogeochemical Essential Ocean Variables (EOVs) is critically needed to enhance the creation of information products and services to sustainably manage the climate system and ocean health. Among the existing biogeochemical EOVs, data synthesis products—which demonstrate the immense value of data coordination—already exist for carbon-relevant data (e.g. SOCAT, Global O…
Degrees of Feminine Competence
This article explores the gendered expertise of neoliberal female influencers associated with a novel baking form, the “drip cake.” It engages in a close historically and theoretically informed analysis of a selection of popular online bakers’ content, majoring on their skill-sharing tutorials. Online images of drip cakes are distinctive and spectacular, and their creation is demanding. Yet they have become a mainstream standard of fashionable ba…
Widening Patient Engagement for Rare Disease Drug Trials
BACKGROUND: Research about patient engagement for people with rare diseases has identified how the experiences of some members of the public are overlooked in relation to clinical trial design and trial participation. As part of a knowledge transfer partnership (KTP), the authors were granted access to patient insight reports about the needs of people with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), to inform clinical trial design and marketing strategy…
The Metamodern Slasher Film
The Metamodern Slasher Film argues that contemporary slasher movies embody a turn towards the metamodern sensibility, thereby debunking the prevailing notion that the subgenre has been dominated by unoriginal remakes since the mid–2000s. The book argues that a significant body of contemporary slasher films innovate within the subgenre by employing approaches and techniques such as hypercoding. The book uses metamodern theory to explain these deve…
The Metamodern Slasher Film
Argues that contemporary slasher films embody a turn towards the metamodern sensibility Debunks the prevailing idea that the slasher film has consisted mainly of remakes since the mid-2000s via its detailed examination of contemporary American slasher films that have been largely overlooked by critics and scholars Revises dominant understandings of this popular subgenre by accounting for a variety of approaches and techniques – such as hypercodin…

The field of communication’s uptake of computers, networks, and the internet
Our goal in this article is to understand the historical sequences as well as consequences of the internet on the development of the academic field of communication. As a field that has one foot in the study of a most basic and necessary human activity, and another foot in the study of innovative technology, has scholarship in the field of communication followed internet developments? Is there a lag between technological developments and communic…

The effects of improving sleep on mental health (Oasis)
BACKGROUND: Sleep difficulties might be a contributory causal factor in the occurrence of mental health problems. If this is true, improving sleep should benefit psychological health. We aimed to determine whether treating insomnia leads to a reduction in paranoia and hallucinations. METHODS: We did this single-blind, randomised controlled trial (OASIS) at 26 UK universities. University students with insomnia were randomly assigned (1:1) with sim…
Out from the PLATO cave
PLATO was a pioneering educational computer platform developed at the Computer-based Education Research Laboratory at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in the 1960s and 1970s. It quickly evolved into a communication system used for educational purposes, and also for social interaction (message boards, real-time messaging), collaboration and online gaming. The PLATO system was one of several precursors to today's Internet, but it has …

Extreme’ porn? The implications of a label
Despite its prevalence, the term ‘extreme’ has received little critical attention. ‘Extremity’ is routinely employed in ways that imply its meanings are self-evident. However, the adjective itself offers no such clarity. This article focuses on one particular use of the term – ‘extreme porn’ – in order to illustrate a broader set of concerns about the pitfalls of labelling. The label ‘extreme’ is typically employed as a substitute for engaging wi…

Long-Term Worries after Colposcopy
The positions of primary and secondary schools in the English school field
In interviews as part of a research study of structural reform in England, some tension between primary head teachers and their secondary peers was evident. This was symptomatic of a long-standing difference in status between the two phases. At a time when relations between stakeholders in local systems are subject to change, we seek to understand anew why that might be the case and how the tension we found was evidence of a current difference of…
The Mediating Effects of Facial Expression on Spatial Interference Between Gaze Direction and Gaze Location
Gaze direction is an important social cue that interacts with facial expression. Cañadas and Lupiáñez (2012) reported a reverse-congruency effect such that identification of gaze direction was faster when a face was presented to the left but with the eyes directed to the right, or vice versa. In two experiments, this effect is replicated and then extended to explore the relationship between this effect and facial expression. Results show that the…

Napster and the press
Fifteen years ago, a new file-sharing technology called Napster provided college students and adults alike with a novel way of engaging with both the Internet and popular music. In this paper, we examine how the media framed Napster for an audience that largely was not Internet savvy at a time when listening to music was still tied to physical media. We conducted a textual analysis of stories regarding Napster appearing in both the specialized mu…
People, things, memory and human-machine communication
As contemporary media of communication increasingly rely on computer mediation there is a concomitantly increasing amount of algorithmic intervention utilizing expressions between users and between users and machines to create, modify or channel communication and interaction with digital agents. This article addresses the consequences of human-machine communication for the field of communication

At least he’s doing something’
Jamie Oliver’s celebrity image has undergone various transformations since his debut as ‘the naked chef’. In this article, we focus on his recent series, Jamie’s Ministry of Food, locating it within debates about lifestyle television, class and neoliberalism. We identify a shift in his image from lifestyle expert to moral entrepreneur, involved with a range of social enterprises. We examine the show’s textual strategies, highlighting similarities…
Days and Nights on the Internet
For a growing cohort of Americans, Internet tools have become a significant conduit of social life and work life. The surveys of the Pew Internet & American Life Project in 2000 show that more than 52 million Americans went online each day, and there are significant differences in use between men and women, young and old, those of different races and ethnic groups, and those of different socioeconomic status. A user typology can be built around t…
Music and the Internet
The fact is, if you want to make a difference in music, you have to change the machine. (Christie 1998)In my book Rock Formation I borrowed from Walter Ong and Jacques Attali when I noted that, 'The ability to record sound is power over sound.' (Jones 1992, p. 51) I continue to believe that statement to be true. Arguments that I then made about the increasing role computers would play in the production of music have been borne out. They were not …

U.S. College Students’ Internet Use
The goal of this study was to learn about whether race and gender make a difference in Internet use among U.S. college students. A survey of college students at 40 U.S. higher education institutions was conducted, along with observations and interviews at several Midwestern U.S. universities. For comparison to the general U.S. population a nationwide telephone survey was undertaken. The study presents new data on Internet use among male and femal…
Hard Times and Rough Rides
This article explores the various ethical and legal limitations faced by researchers studying extreme or 'shock' pornographies, beginning with generic and disciplinary contexts, and focusing specifically upon the assumption that textual analysis unproblematically justifies certain pornographies, while legal contexts utilize a prohibitive gaze. Are our academic freedoms of speech endangered by legislations that restrict our access to non-mainstrea…
Music That Moves
This essay examines the consequences of technology for how music reaches people and for how people reach music. It is argued that new media technologies, particularly the Internet, create new territorializations of space and of affect. The spatial distribution of music wrought by new technologies provides an opportunity for cultural studies to bring distribution to the centre of the study of media. By so doing we can better understand cultural pr…

An ethnography of risk management amongst illicit drug injectors and its implications for the development of community-based interventions
Qualitative research which describes the social behaviour of illicit drug users has a key role to play in refining community- based interventions. Such research has been used for many years in drugs research, but during the AIDS epoch its practical application has been most fully realised. Data are presented to illustrate the way in which qualitative research can inform the development of outreach initiatives targeted towards illicit drug injecto…

Please Don't Try this at Home
The British chef Heston Blumenthal is at the forefront of a well-publicized shift within high-end restaurant cuisine towards avant-garde innovation and experimentation. At the same time, Blumenthal has increasingly pursued a parallel career as a television chef. This article considers how Blumenthal's TV shows rework the conventions of British cookery television through their foregrounding of cooking as an intellectual and aesthetic practice. It …
Fizz in the Field
This article examines the history and future prospects of the formation of Internet studies. It is argued that although a traditional field or disciplinary structure is not yet in place, the current interdisciplinary aggregations may have the makings of institutionalized academic units. Through comparison with the institutionalization of other interdisiciplinary areas of study (primarily that of communication and cultural studies), an argument is…

Food writing and food cultures
In spite of a growth in sociological and cultural analyses of food practices, little attention has been paid to food writing and cookery books. This article will seek to rectify this by analysing the work of Elizabeth David and Jane Grigson. We argue that their work not only belongs to a predominantly male tradition of gastronomic writing, but that it also seeks to salvage certain forms of female domesticity. While this represents a break with tr…

Les amphores républicaines en Auvergne (Puy-de-Dôme)
Previous studies have contended that the distribution of amphorae in Late Iron age Gaul was late, low, and elitist. Detailed analysis of the wealth of finds in the Auvergne region has suggested that none of these propositions is true. Amphorae are found on all types of sites here, from times beginning as early as the second century BC, often in great quantity. One must conclude therefore that the influx of these imports was not due to the later R…

Gender Monstrosity
Deadgirl (2008) is based around a group of male teens discovering and claiming ownership of a bound female zombie, using her as a sex slave. This narrative premise raises numerous tensions that are particularly amplified by using a zombie as the film’s central victim. The Deadgirl is sexually passive yet monstrous, reifying the horrors associated with the female body in patriarchal discourses. She is objectified on the basis of her gender, and th…
Using the News
This study examines one facet of the penetration of personal computers into everyday life. It seeks to discover how members of a Usenet newsgroup value and use news sources. Electronic news sources predominated. An important finding is that media use was not tied to the user's local geographic. The study raises several questions for future research: What are the rhetorical dimensions of media use in electronic communities? How might our understan…
