Paperback. Condition: New. Exploring how we make, distribute, and consume today's media systems Media backends--the electronics, labor, and operations behind our screens--significantly influence our understanding of the sociotechnical relations, economies, and operations of media. Lisa Parks, Julia Velkova, and Sander De Ridder assemble essays that delve into the evolving politics of the media infrastructural landscape. Throughout, the contributors draw on feminist, queer, and intersectional criticism to engage with infrastructural and industrial issues. This focus reflects a concern about the systemic inequalities that emerge when tech companies and designers fail to address workplace discrimination and algorithmic violence and exclusions. Moving from smart phones to smart dust, the essayists examine topics like artificial intelligence, human-machine communication, and links between digital infrastructures and public service media alongside investigations into the algorithmic backends at Netflix and Spotify, Google's hyperscale data centers, and video-on-demand services in India. A fascinating foray into an expanding landscape of media studies, Media Backends illuminates the behind-the-screen processes influencing our digital lives.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. How telecom companies in India have added a whole new group of mobile phone users-and the tremendous impact of this new reach.How telecom companies in India have added a whole new group of mobile phone users-and the tremendous impact of this new reach.Around 2016, buoyed by affordable data plans of telecom companies, an aspirational neo-middle class of users in India accessed internet for the first time on their mobile phones. What kinds of digital infrastructures are emerging for content and money to move and reach such users? And how does their design impact access, exclusion, and surveillance as well as the horizon of social behaviors and expectations in "Digital India"? In Unlimited, Rahul Mukherjee explores how aspirations shape practices of distribution as well as how distribution technologies aid state-corporations to set aspirational targets for consumer-citizens who encounter gender- and caste-based fault lines.This book traces the supply chains of content delivery networks enabling streaming video-on-demand services, such as Hotstar and SonyLIV, and informal ways of circulating vernacular Bhojpuri music videos through memory cards. It assesses the possibilities and limits of the platform economy with the rise of mobile payment and lending services, as well as the accompanying online scams. Unlimited offers the first systematic examination of distribution considerations-including localization strategies-required for imagining mobile phone users across the varied regional geographies of India. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
