Smartphone-Communities. Dynamics of Resistance in Relations of Participation

由智能手机促成的参与关系，是由抵抗做法和抵抗权力结构之间的动态相互作用构成的。这个子项目用抵抗力的概念来研究这些动态，以阐明反抗或免疫的多种操作。指导性的研究问题集中在参与智能手机社区的临时性问题上。该分项目通过其过程和暂时稳定来研究媒体在抵抗动态中的参与。将智能手机短信(MIT-Teilung)定义为移动和数字连接媒体条件下参与的连接-分离关系，是子项目案例研究和参与过程理论系统化的基础。抵抗的动力因其开放和关闭参与的竞争场所的能力而受到质疑。在该分项目中，智能手机社区周边、利基和亚文化的便利化以及权力中心的免疫战略被描述为(重新)结构或(重新)形成的姿态，因此是动态的参与关系，在临时定位和职位解散的相互影响中不断发生。该分项目的三项任务涉及特殊情况，在这些情况下，参与过程的阻力变得更加明显和明显：研究的第一个领域是“捏造”。电视剧及其粉丝文化中的流行文化归属“考察了对智能手机社区的叙述(批评)，因此将参与关系的临时性作为暂时的稳定化、系列化和意义的转变来解决。研究领域“形成”。其次，将智能手机作为开放对象来玩，需要采取修修补补或硬件黑客等做法，通过这些做法，设备获得新的功能，并同时出于经济利益关闭设备。“定位。智能手机社区的危机政治“第三个考虑的是智能手机社区在当代环境和不稳定的星座中的便利。其目的是通过这些情境和细节的分析，比较考察抵抗和免疫的动态，从而能够更深入地掌握参与的过程，并制定媒介理论的具体化和系统化。为此，该分项目继续进行案例研究，并与之一起阐述概念和终止语，通过这些概念和终止语，时间化的不同方面变得可以探索：重复、预期、推迟、追溯、推迟、系列化和暂时稳定。所有案例研究都解决了一个问题，即如何通过智能手机的操作、迭代和实践来暂时促进或推翻阻力。

Relations of Participation, which are facilitated by smartphones, are constituted by a dynamic interplay between resistant practices and resistant power structures. The subproject examines these dynamics with the concept of resistance, in order to elucidate the manifold operations of defiance or immunization. The guiding research question focuses on the temporalization of participation in smartphone communities. The subproject studies media participation within dynamics of resistance through its processuality and temporary stabilizations. The definition of the smartphone message (mit-teilung) as the connecting-separating relation of participation under the conditions of mobile and digitally connected media is the foundation for the subproject’s case studies and theoretic systematizations of participation processes. The dynamics of resistance are questioned for their capability of opening and closing playing fields of participation. The facilitation of peripheries, niches and subcultures of smartphone communities as well as the immunization strategies of power centres are described in the subproject as gestures of (re-)structuring or (re-)formation and thus as dynamic relations of participation, that are constantly occurring in the mutual influence of temporary positioning and the dissolving of positions. The subproject’s three remits address particular situations, in which the resistances of participation processes become more tangible and thus observable: The first area of research “Fabricating. Pop-Cultural attributions in television series and their fan cultures” examines narratives of (the critique of) smartphone communities and therefore addresses the temporalization of participation relations as temporary stabilizations, serializations and shifts in meaning. The research field “Formating. Playing with the smartphone as an open object” secondly takes practices, such as tinkering or hardware-hacking, through which the device acquires new functionalities into focus, as well as the simultaneous efforts of closing the device for economic interests. “Positioning. Politics of crisis in smartphone communities” thirdly considers the facilitation of smartphone communities in contemporary circumstances and precarious constellations. The aim is to comparatively examine the dynamics of resistance and immunity through these situated and detailed analyses and to then be able to grasp processes of participation more thoroughly and formulate media theoretic concretizations and systematization. To do so, the subproject pursues the case studies and with them the elaboration of concepts and termini, with which different facets of temporalization become explorable: repetition, anticipation, deferral, retrospectivity, postponement, serialization and temporary stabilization. All case studies address the question, how resistances can be momentarily facilitated or overthrown through the operations, iterations and practices of the smartphone.
