Media Ethnography

Pandemi Covid-19 merupakan peristiwa baru yang dialami oleh seluruh masyarakat Indonesia dan juga dunia. Pandemi ini muncul dengan pola dan masalah baru yang memengaruhi perilaku sosial manusia sebagai individu dan masyarakat. Informasi merupakan hal penting yang harus diketahui oleh manusia untuk menghadapi perubahan pola dan masalah yang terjadi. Di era pandemi ini, manusia aktif berinteraksi di media sosial sebagai bentuk pelarian dari kebijakan pelarangan interaksi fisik untuk mengurangi penularan virus. Interaksi yang terjadi antarmanusia merupakan bentuk saling berbagi pengalaman dan pengetahuan yang dimiliki untuk kepentingan manusia itu sendiri. Bagaimana ini dijelaskan? interaksi sebagai perilaku sosial harus dimaknai lebih dalam sebagai proses manusia untuk mencari pengetahuan dan pengalaman yang memiliki maksud dan tujuan di dalamnya. Tujuan ini sebenarnya untuk memastikan bahwa manusia itu sendiri memiliki pengetahuan untuk menghadapi perubahan yang terjadi akibat munculnya pandemi Covid-19. Metode social media ethnography digunakan untuk melihat proses interaksi di media sosial secara terus menerus hingga akhirnya manusia dapat membuktikan bahwa dirinya memiliki kemampuan dan pengetahuan untuk memahami dan berperilaku di era pandemi Covid-19. Media sosial Twitter digunakan untuk melihat interaksi yang terjadi antarnetizen Indonesia terkait kejadian Covid-19, khususnya vaksinasi Covid-19 yang dilakukan di Indonesia. Interaksi berulang yang dilakukan membentuk bukti diri yang digunakan untuk mengonfirmasi dan mengamati peristiwa dengan lebih baik dengan pengetahuan sebelumnya. Pengetahuan ini merupakan bentuk acuan yang digunakan manusia untuk bertindak ketika menghadapi peristiwa tertentu, dalam hal ini menanggapi setiap peristiwa selama pandemi Covid-19.

Diasporic Communities

Media and communication technology plays a crucial role in diasporic communities by helping members to maintain complex connections with their places of origin, and at the same time to live their life in the diaspora. The social interactions, belief systems, identity struggles, and the daily life of diasporic communities are indeed reflected in their media consumption and production. A researcher can apply media ethnography to uncover some of the deeper meanings of diasporic experiences. However, a researcher should not take media ethnographic methods lightly since a variety of issues must be addressed to justify its use as a legitimate approach. This article examines various forms of media ethnographic fieldwork (multi-sited ethnography), issues related to researching one’s own community (native ethnography), and the debates surrounding duration of immersion in ethnography research within the context of diasporic communities. Careful consideration of such issues is also necessary to establish the “ethnographic authority” of the researcher.

Researching a phenomenon like the Norwegian TV-series SKAM further complicates the inside-outside notion already debated within ethnographic methods. With SKAM, the reception takes place in a multi-platform and always-on environment: the fan culture(s) happen(s) across several online platforms and the series makes use of a particular understanding of 'liveness' when it updates the story throughout the week, at random times, and on several platforms. This directly influences a researcher's positioning and modes of action. In this paper, we discuss the act of researching SKAM through analysing empirical data from our conversation on Messenger in which we—in the eight months it lasted—acted both as fans or viewers and as researchers aiming to understand SKAM's fandom. In this case of an continuously updating narrative that seems to happen in a parallel universe to our everyday life, what might 'being-there' entail for researchers?, we ask. The methodological perspectives thus discussed here relate to auto-ethnography as well as to media-ethnography, allowing us to discuss how SKAM was a phenomenon that interfered into our professional but definitely also into our private lives.

There is a pressing need to facilitate sensitive conversations between people with differing or opposing views. On video-sharing app TikTok, the diverse experiences of donor-conceived people and recipient parents sit uneasily alongside each other, coalescing in hashtags like #donorconceived. This article describes a method ‘Situated Talk’ which uses TikToks to facilitate a reflexive encounter, drawing on three areas of scholarship: media ethnography and elicitation, researcher reflexivity and duoethnography/collaborative autoethnography. We describe how we, as a donor-conceived adult (Giselle) and a queer woman who would need donor sperm to have a child (Clare), employed TikToks from #donorconceived as prompts to facilitate a sensitive conversation and elicit situated insights. We explore three central insights from applying our method: (1) discomfort as a productive tension; (2) unresolved dilemmas; and (3) discovering parallels in experience. Using TikToks as stimuli, ‘Situated Talk’ contributes an innovative method for generating grounded social media insights.

This paper is based on a research study designed to explore how adolescents, in situations of political polarization, deploy online networks to articulate, negotiate, and enact their political and religious identities. Based on social media ethnography tracing the online engagements of 44 high school students over a period of eighteen months, and supplemented with in-depth interviews conducted in their village communities, this study explores why social media networks emerge as ideological niches frequented by students to enact their participation as members of their respective religious communities. It suggests that in situation of experienced political polarization and discrimination, students use social media affordances to replicate their offline socio-political and religious engagements onto their virtual spaces and in the process reinforce their radical religious identities.
