Linguistic unease in multi-domain co-design interactions
Co-design is increasingly adopted in Higher Education to support diverse educational innovations. Often framed as inherently collaborative and empowering—promoting inclusivity, agency and collective intelligence—co-design might be underpinned by assumptions of shared understanding and communicative alignment. We problematise these assumptions as multi-domain co-design interactions are dialogical sites prone to linguistic unease, particularly amon…
Representations of Madrid’s collective identity traversed by humour in M21 Magazine
The relationship between comics and the city has been a productive research topic, with each study offering complementary insights into its semiotic, spatial, identarian or sociocultural aspects. The present study contributes to this body of studies by examining how Madrid’s collective identity was co-constructed via humour in the illustrated cultural magazine M21 Magazine/eme21mag from 2017 to 2021. This period encompasses the first 51 issues of…
AIsplaining
The growing implementation of Generative AI (GenAI) in education has implications on the representation of knowledge and identity across languages. In a context where content biases have been reported in AI-generated content, it becomes relevant to interrogate the ways in which AI technologies represent different linguistic identities. This article conducts a systematic analysis of AI-generated content to identify the potential discursive strateg…
Hierarchies among intertextual references
This article examines intertextuality in digital humour through a combination of tools from pragmatics and decoloniality. The study draws on a dataset of Spanish image macros that intertwine highbrow and lowbrow intertextual references. The analysis is framed by key theoretical concepts at the discursive and hierarchical levels. Specifically, three domains of the colonial matrix of power (knowledge, humanity and governance) are used as analytical…
Subverting superhero and meiga imaginaries in street art narrative Fenómenas do rural
Heroic narratives are often biased towards a conceptualization of the rural/urban difference that positions rural identities at the margins. In particular, superhero stories have traditionally offered a vision of heroism assumed to be male, urban and young. How can post-rural contexts shaped by migration contest these narrative patterns? This article examines the street narrative of Fenómenas do rural, which recognizes older female rural identiti…
Mapping connections among activism interactional practices and presence in videoconferencing language learning
The role of secondary incongruities in cartoon appreciation
Failed humour in conversational exchanges has received increasing attention in humour research (see Bell 2015; Bell & Attardo 2010). However, tensions between what constitutes successful and failed humour have yet to be fully explored outside conversational humour. Drawing on Hay’s (2001) classification of humour stages and using a socio-cognitive approach to pragmatics to examine responses from Spanish L1 and L2 users to differing combinations o…
