Communication studies research and big data
“Big data” is neither unified nor stable, but instead offers opportunities for further exploration of queer methods. Communication studies scholars are particularly well suited to engage in this developing area. The potentials are illustrated in this article's description of an in-progress collaborative research project using artificial intelligence to examine public engagement with campus monuments and memorials at a large southeastern universit…
You're a Cog in a System that Needs to Work”
A thematic analysis of interviews with lesbian, gay, and transgender US athletes who were out while playing varsity collegiate sports is examined for LGBTQ and athletic identifications. Conceptualizing being out as an ongoing process, we asked participants to describe their experiences over the years they were playing. Participants described athletic identifications as superordinate to and predating LGBTQ identifications. Although they initially …
Articulating Apostasy
In this essay I address insights gained during pandemic isolation in contrast to core assumptions of my professional discipline of communication. Drawing on perspectives from feminist studies of health and medicine, disability studies, and queer studies, I examine my increased health and productivity during social distancing. This is followed by a revised excerpt of an essay written to colleagues during our annual meeting, which had moved online.…
‘We don't even know who owns it’
This project explores in/visibility, publicity, and politics in the infrastructural imaginary of Spruce Pine, a mining town in the US state of North Carolina. Through participant observation and other direct experiences, and as an interdisciplinary exercise in studying from below, I examine how the town's supplying of high-quality quartz (HQQ) to high-tech industries is entangled with their promoted identity as a gem-mining location. From the per…
Now that They're Out
In recent years, more college athletes have publicly identified as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and/or queer (LGBTQ). Our study seeks to move past media celebrations and controversies of "coming out" and examine actual experiences of LGBTQ athletes and their teammates. A survey of 259 LGBTQ athletes and teammates of LGBTQ athletes was conducted. We examined concerns about being or playing with LGBTQ athletes, sources of homophobic languag…

Coming out of the closet’ – examining a metaphor
This essay examines use of the metaphor ‘coming out of the closet,’ providing an overview of the origins of the metaphor and examples of scholarly and popular use. Several examples are presented of pre-existing critiques of the metaphor, to which are added: The metaphor is ocularcentric, and the notion of stigma inherent in the original meanings of the metaphor suggests a medicalizing aspect, raising additional concerns. The conclusion examines a…
Recent Books in Memory Studies
F. Scott Fitzgerald said, “The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposing ideas in the mind at the same time, and still retain the ability to function” (2009, p. 69). Today, the field of communication functions very well while maintaining multiple ideas previously thought of as oppositional, such as rhetorical textual analysis, empirical social science, and applied media production. Rather than a crippling “fragmentatio…
LGBT Studies
This entry covers some of the main dimensions of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) studies, an area within which scholars seek to understand LGBT subjectivities, identities, histories, and power struggles. Descriptions are provided of areas of particular relevance to communication, and key figures or representative works are noted. The entry is organized around three key concerns of LGBT studies: visibility , experience , and power .
Participation, Pain, and World Making
This article examines media participation through affective political economy, using as a case study the documentary Knuckle, a profile of Irish Traveller fighting. The film incorporates videos recorded by fighters and their families. Boasts and threats from one clan to another expand in circulation and become increasingly monetized as they are repackaged. Combing media political economy with Sarah Ahmed’s concept of affective economies, this art…
The Empathetic Meme
This essay argues for the historical significance of a viral video and its memes within mediated struggles for Lesbian-Gay-Bisexual-Transgender equality. Informed by affect, sound, and media studies, I argue that Chris Crocker's "LEAVE BRITNEY ALONE!" helped form empathy for these populations. Through a close reading of the video, historical contextualization, and examining responses, I describe how his user-generated video, spread widely across …
Exploring lay views on physical activity and their implications for public health policy. A case study from East Belfast
Contested Kicks
This paper presents a critical ethnography of an example of fashion's mediating cultural work: sneakers and North American gay men. This rich example presents fashion with a specific garment and wearers, yet mediating work in multiple directions, exemplifying fashion's ambivalence and flexibility. I will describe three positions taken, articulated around gender, and their relations to dominant culture: (1) sneakers are feminine and rejected in op…
Intimacy Threats and Intersubjective Users
Drawing on approaches from sound studies, this essay explores a historical role of a sound technology, telephony, in assessing desirable people, especially ideal and sanctioned consumers, as conveyed by seven short instructional films from the 1920s to the 1960s. After examining how telephony is represented visually and aurally, I argue that the essence of telephony's sonic experience-intimate intersubjectivity-is largely missing from these depic…
The Postfeminist User
This paper is part of a preliminary investigation toward a postfeminist analysis of "the user." It critically examines the pervasive liberatory rhetoric of interactivity through situating it within a widespread cultural context also rife with liberatory rhetoric: postfeminism. Two media properties, heavily marketed for interactivity, are examined: the first three films of the Final Destination film series and the reality television program Big Br…
