How to move along with the audiovisual, vibey, and AI-infused feeds of today’s platforms?
Sal Hagen, together with Daniël de Zeeuw and Tommaso, theorize ‘digital rhythmanalysis’ as a potential new quali-quantitative approach to measure and ‘feel’ rhythms online. Digital rhythmanalysis emphasizes time before space and can study moments of (viral) intensity as well as everyday digital life. The papers brings this in dialogue with recent ‘affective’ and ‘aural’ turns and discuss practical examples on how to operationalize it.
