SMID – Sammenslutningen af medieforskere i Danmark

DR Medieforsknings årlige fokus på udviklingen af danskernes brug af de elektroniske medier kan nu downloades fra DR’s hjemmeside.

Rapporten giver et opdateret billede af hvordan de traditionelle medier klarer sig, og hvordan internet, sociale medier og mobile enheder påvirker medieforbruget og medietilgangen. Både i forhold til nye medietilbud, men også hvordan det supplerer og kombineres med de traditionelle mediers udbud.

Fra forordet: “Danskernes brug af medier er i 2011 præget af to hovedtendenser. Der er stor stabilitet i brugsmønstrene af de traditionelle massemedier, og der er bemærkelsesværdige forandringer i danskernes mediebrug af de nyere medier. Disse tendenser bliver belyst i dette års udgave af Medieudviklingen.”

The complex relationship between media and crime is highlighted in the 2011 volume of Northern Lights. Film and Media Studies Yearbook.

Crime is a central theme of a vast array of fiction in books, films, TV series, computer games and web-based interactivity. Crime is also one of the most popular subjects of journalism, mediated in newspapers and their websites, electronic media and on the web, where websites dedicated to the mediation of crime are abundant.

Alle er velkomne.

Kære alle,
Afslutningskonference for det store europæiske forskningsprojekt EU Kids Online II nærmer sig og det samme gør deadline for tilmelding. Se nærmere herunder. Man kan faktisk nå konferencen med en enkelt overnatning og fly er billige til London – det ville være dejligt at se mange danske deltagere. EU Kids III starter op umiddelbart efter konferencen – det vil jeg vende tilbage om.
