The New York Society for General Semantics is proud to present a special event titled “Democracy and Media Ecology” at the historic Players at 16 Gramercy Park South in New York City. Our event will take place on Friday evening, January 27th between 6pm and 9pm, and we hope you’ll register and join us for what promises to be a lively and engaging discussion.
Date: 27 Jan 2023 Time: 6:00 PM – 9:00 PM Location: The Players NYC – 16 Gramercy Park South, NY, NY
Media ecology entails the study of media as environments. Those things that go between us and what’s “out there” strongly influence the way we think, act, and communicate. Neil Postman famously called media ecology “general semantics writ large.” As our good friend Thom Gencarelli wrote in 2020, reviewing Postman’s role in both fields, “If general semantics considers our semantic environment, or context in which utterances take place, and the fact that the sense and sensibility and result of such utterances are to a great extent determined by that context, then the same holds true when we expand the concept of our semantic environment to consider our various media environments – wherein the nature of the medium, as a context, influences both the nature of utterances offered and the meanings we make from such utterances.”
This point is particularly valuable in attempting to understand how we shape our world through the choices we make in organizing and governing our affairs. Democracy is one system, method, or medium for engaging in that important work and therefore it’s important to consider the democratic shape of things as we seek to improve and progress as human beings. As democratic systems of various types become strained by the pace and intensity of our contemporary condition, we gather to consider what’s going on and what we might do about it.
Each January, the Executive Board of the Media Ecology Association holds its annual meeting in New York City, and the NYSGS is very pleased to have a number of principals of the MEA Board with us to share food, drink, and an evening of intellectual reflection.
Dr. Adriana Braga is Immediate Past President of the MEA and Associate Professor at the Social Communication Department at the Pontifícia Universidade Católica/Rio de Janeiro (PUC-Rio), Coordinator of the Digital Media Lab and researcher of the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq, Brazil).
Dr. Thom Gencarelli is a Past President of the MEA, Treasurer of the NYSGS, and Editor-in-Chief of the Institute of General Semantics’ journal ETC: A Review of General Semantics. He is Professor and founding Chair of the Communication Department at Manhattan College.
Dr. Fernando Gutiérrez is the long time Executive Secretary of the MEA and the head of the Division of Humanities and Education at the Monterrey Institute of Technology and Higher Education (State of Mexico Campus). Dr. Gutiérrez is an author of several titles about media and information technologies; and part of the National System of Researchers in Mexico. His interest focuses on the exploration of different media environments.
Moderating the evening’s discussion is Dr. Michael Plugh, President of the MEA and the NYSGS. Dr. Plugh is Associate Professor in the Communication Department at Manhattan College.
We hope you’ll drop in to join us. Registration is free, but all attendees must be registered in order to gain admittance to the club. This includes any guests you might want to bring with you.
The program will take place in the Library on the 2nd floor of the club. Please note that, as an historic 19th century landmark, the site is not handicap accessible. Dress code is business casual and is strictly enforced, including no sneakers, shorts, ripped jeans, t-shirts).
Comparto la liga al al libro colectivo que editó Grupo Comunicar, bajo el liderazgo del Dr. Ignacio Aguaded, Arantxa Vizcaíno-Verdú, Ángel Hernando-Gómez y Mónica Bonilla-del-Río. El libro cuenta con 151 capítulos de más de 290 autores de 17 países euroamericanos que nos introducen en un panorama educomunicativo diverso en materia de investigaciones, estudios, propuestas y reflexiones, fundamentales para comprender nuestra convivencia con los medios y las plataformas digitales.
El 26 de octubre de este año tuve el privilegio de dictar una de las cuatro conferencias plenarias del VI Congreso Internacional Alfamed, que llevó como tema Redes Sociales y Ciudadanía: Ciberculturas para el aprendizaje. El evento tuvo lugar en Arequipa, Perú del 26 al 28 de octubre de 2022.
La conferencia tuvo como nombre La comprensión del entorno digital actual desde la perspectiva de la ecología de medios.
Comparto con ustedes parte del material de apoyo que utilicé durante la conferencia:
Mis estimados amigos Juan Fernando Muñoz y Marco López, me comparten la edición del libro: La formación en comunicación: visiones de una formación futura (conceptos y aproximaciones) en el que participan destacados académicos de diversos países.
Gracias a su invitación tuve oportunidad de aportar con la siguiente propuesta: El nuevo paradigma de la comunicación digital.
Aquí comparto el texto, esperando resulte de interés.
Aquí un fragmento de la conferencia que tuvimos el martes 20 de septiembre con la Dra. Eva Berger.
Eva Berger at the Tecnologico de Monterrey
Eva Berger is a professor of Media Studies at COMAS in Israel. She serves as Secretary of the Institute of General Semantics. She is co-author of The Communication Panacea: Pediatrics and General Semantics. She holds a Ph.D. in Media Ecology from New York University. Her latest book, Context blindness: Digital technology and the next stage of human evolution, was published by Peter Lang.
Eva Berger’s lecture – Context blindness: Digital technology and the next stage of human evolution – is based on her new book with the same title. The book’s thesis is that since we have delegated the ability to read context to contextual technologies such as social media, location, and sensors, we have become context blind. And since context blindness—or caetextia in Latin—is one of the most dominant symptoms of autistic behavior, people with autism may be giving us a peek into our human condition soon. Phenomena such as cancel culture, trigger warnings, and safe spaces are early signs. With increasingly frequent floods and fires and unbearably hot summers, the human footprint on our planet should be evident to all, but it is not because we are context blind. We are witnessing evolution in real-time and birthing our successor species. Our great-grandchildren may be a species very distinct from us: Homo caetextus.
Este artículo explora el fenómeno de asunción de identidades en las redes sociales y la influencia que tiene la inteligencia artificial (bots) para que agentes externos logren tomar ventaja de los momentos de vulnerabilidad de diversos sujetos. El tema se aborda desde la perspectiva que ofrecen los estudios de Jacques Lacan y René Girard, con el enfoque de la ecología de medios. La investigación se fundamenta en un análisis particular de manipulación en Twitter en torno del caso de la caravana migrante de 2018 y la propagación del discurso de odio.

Comparto esta entrevista que me hacen Graciela Ramírez y José Angel Domínguez sobre el libro “La comprensión de los medios en la era digital, un nuevo análisis de la obra de Marshall McLuhan”. Aquí les dejo la liga al programa completo: Radio Educación
In this presentation, I explore some of the effects observed by the excessive use of media due –in part– to the restrictions imposed by the Health Authorities as a consequence of an uncontrolled pandemic. The great diversity of media; the almost null control of them by the government; the strong dependence we show on them; and the limited understanding of their structure and syntax; generate a complex and adverse panorama for people who cannot assimilate everything they receive through these channels.
