Zhuk, Sergei. "Soviet Americanists, Academic Exchanges, the KGB and the Promotion of Video Media from Capitalist America during the Cold War." MONDO CONTEMPORANEO, no. 2 (May 2021): 361–80. http://dx.doi.org/10.3280/mon2020-002018.
Full textAbstract:
This essay is an attempt, made by using the personal stories of Soviet Americani-sts, to study the role of Soviet academic visitors, approved and supervised by the KGB, in promoting the cultural products from the USA - mainly such visual media as films and television - in the USSR during the period of academic exchanges after 1959. During their visits to the United States, Soviet Americanists used their leisure time not only for sightseeing, visiting museums and shopping, but also for various forms of cultural entertainment, from watching films and television shows to visiting concerts of classical and popular music. These experiences eventually affected the recommenda-tions about American cultural products, which Soviet visitors submitted to the KGB and their supervisors after their return home. During the 1970s and the 1980s, Soviet admi-nistration benefited from such useful advice about American popular films and televi-sion programs, which could be promoted in the USSR. Even the KGB administration in the Soviet Union studied the lists of recommendations made by those scholars, and used them for promoting the "progressive, humanistic" American cultural products among local Communist and Komsomol leaders for the education of Soviet audience.

Full textAbstract:
This study aims to examine the views of Islamic law on price changes in a limited time in the Home shopping program on RTV television media and the implications for buying and selling activities in the program. This type of research is field research using a phenomenological approach. The data collection used observation techniques on RTV television social media and YouTube promo shows for home shopping products. The study results concluded that product sales in the home shopping program contain an element of uncertainty (gharar) by mixing prices over time; because the product is sold at a discount, that price is added to other goods at a specific price, which is an additional bonus. This activity causes the price to change from the price of the initially offered item and then added to the bonus item that must also be paid. This price is only valid for a short period, and then, after the promotion time is up, the price of the item being sold returns to the pre-discount price so that the selling price of the product offered is unclear (gharar) and contains an element of speculation which is not permitted in Islamic teachings.

Full textAbstract:
The 1984 Supreme Court ruling in the antitrust suit between the Universities of Oklahoma and Georgia, representing the College Football Association (CFA), versus the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) provided mat individual institutions had proper authority to sell television rights to their football games. The NCAA had controlled television appearances of collegiate football teams with the rationale of preventing erosion of game attendance due to televised home football games. Records of home games televised, television revenues from football games, and attendance at televised football games were gathered from 57% of NCAA Division I institutions and compared for a 3-year period prior to the 1984 ruling, with a 3-year period following the ruling. Four sets oft tests between mean data for the pre- and posttime periods showed that although the number of games scheduled per season remained the same, the number of televised football games significantly increased, the television revenues from football remained constant, and attendance at televised home football games decreased significantly after the 1984 ruling.

Using data from the American Time Use Survey between 2003 and 2010, we document that home production absorbs roughly 30 percent of foregone market work hours at business cycle frequencies. Leisure absorbs roughly 50 percent of foregone market work hours, with sleeping and television watching accounting for most of this increase. We document significant increases in time spent on shopping, child care, education, and health. Job search absorbs between 2 and 6 percent of foregone market work hours. We discuss the implications of our results for business cycle models with home production and non-separable preferences. (JEL D31, E32, J22)

Full textAbstract:
This essay examines the quotidian forms of dispossession and bare enterprise that emerge when homes and belongings are repossessed and auctioned off for profit while TV cameras roll. Focusing on a spate of recent US reality programs revolving around pawnshops, repossession agents, storage unit auctions and foreclosed home flipping businesses, I chronicle an unabashedly ruthless performance of homo economicus. I link the biopolitics of disposability evidenced across these programs to an emerging stage of neoliberal governmentality that has little interest in transforming ‘failed’ citizens and, therefore, differs from the charitable interventions and makeover regimens circulated by US television. Finally, I consider some tensions and points of resistance that television’s cruel new turn may register.

Full textAbstract:
In the world of media and communication, the producers of content are major contributors who create issues for an audience to think about. This content is not randomly created, but rather created based on certain agendas. This paper analyzes the content of the Alhijrah channel, a Malaysian Islamic TV. The objective of this study is to discover the prioritized Islamic content broadcast by Alhijrah TV that contributes to shaping the perception of Islam among viewers. To achieve this objective, content analysis, observation and interviews were conducted. The sample of the study was the last broadcasting season of 2020. It was found out that Alhijrah divided its programs into eight genres. The leading genre was a magazine that accounted for 46.56% of the sample, and the leading programs were the programs of the noble Qur'an. Alhijrah resorted to shopping programs that accounted for almost 17% of the Alhijrah content. Alhijrah also broadcast seven live programs that made up 16.71% of its programs. Alhijrah also broadcast limited programs of animation, drama, concert and talk show. This study recommends Islamic television channels and producers of Islamic content to align their agendas with the noble Qur'an to prioritize what Allah SWT prioritized to guide the audience to Allah SWT implementing the methods that He set for us. Keywords: Content, television, Islam, Alhijrah TV, agenda-setting theory.

Full textAbstract:
In highly developed countries, more and more people use culinary services. Cooking at home, for the family, is giving way to culinary services. Consumers either order food home or use the offers of restaurants and bars. Consumers’ choice of culinary form may be influenced by cooking television programs. Many TV stations broadcast cooking programs. This study examined the impact of television culinary programs on consumer behavior in the restaurant services market. The article examines the interplay of emotional responses, personality traits, and culinary preferences to understand how TV cooking programs influence dining decisions. The study was conducted using the CAWI method, which involved 742 respondents. The study, conducted between May 2021 and April 2022, was addressed to people who visited restaurants presented in the Polish culinary TV show titled “Kitchen Revolutions”. The study revealed that almost 3/4 of the respondents chose restaurants based on the program’s recommendations. Although there was a strong emotional connection with this program—nearly half of the respondents expressed delight in the taste of snacks and main courses—this did not always translate into an increased frequency of eating meals away from home. Only every third respondent said that the program influenced their gastronomic behavior. The research hypotheses examined the extent to which culinary TV shows influence the frequency of visits to restaurants, the perceived quality of life, and the influence on consumers with specific personality traits. The results partially supported the hypothesis that cooking programs on television encourage people to eat out more often, but the perceived impact on quality of life and on some personality traits was less clear. The article contributes to the understanding of consumer behavior in the food service market by highlighting the complex dynamics of emotional reactions, personality traits, and the impact of culinary television programs. The findings have practical implications for the restaurant industry, suggesting a focus on emotional impact, food quality and presentation, and targeting marketing strategies towards consumers who are open to new experiences and ready to experiment.

Full textAbstract:
A distance learning course called Southwest Home Horticulture was developed and implemented at Arizona State University using video and Internet technologies to give nonhorticulture students an overview of urban horticulture in the southwestern United States. Fourteen, one-half-hour video programs about topics in southwestern residential landscaping, plants materials and landscape best-management practices were produced in ≈800 working hours. The video programs are now telecast weekly, each academic semester, on the regional public television station and the educational channel of several cable television systems. We found that students who enrolled in the course were most likely to tape the programs on a video cassette recorder and watch them at their own convenience, one to three times. A World Wide Web (Web) site on the Internet was developed as a supplement to the video programs. The Web site was organized into a modular format giving students quick access to auxiliary course-related information and helpful resources. When asked, ≈90% of the students indicated that the Web site was a helpful supplement to the video programs. Use of video and Internet technologies in tandem has enabled nonhorticulture major students to learn about home horticulture in an asynchronous or location and time independent fashion.

Full textAbstract:
The decision to purchase a product is inseparable from the buyer's trust in a product. Testimonials are a tool for marketers to eliminate consumer barriers about the product to be purchased. Testimonials on home shopping television products tend to be controllable. The selection of sources, the use of scripts, and the editing process can be a form of media control over the information received by the public. This study focus on analyzing testimonials from the logical side of the testimony content. The method used to analyze this logical fallacy is qualitative content analysis. The text is separated using Toulmin's model into three parts, namely claim, ground, and warrant. This research uses a logical fallacy as a tool to evaluate the logic of the testimony in terms of content. The results of this study found that there was a logical fallacy in the testimony content. The fallacies include generalization fallacy, fallacy fallacies, fallacy of composition, appeal to wealth fallacy, appeal to pity, dan appeal to force.

Full textAbstract:
Program classification is an important tool for records and marketing. Accessible, reliable, and internationally comparable data is needed in all aspects of work. And this is not only a matter of program organisation but also a fundamental part of the research of the audience in terms of studying the relationship between the public and the programs. A typology can be created according to the motives and habits, underlying the behavior of the viewer as a buyer with regard to their television preferences. It can be first considered whether the viewer is watching TV carefully or in parallel with other things, constantly changing channels, or watching a selected channel continuously. The demographic approach is formed by derived indicators and estimates, which allows to comprehensively characterize the structure and movement of the population, social, and demographic processes. In the case of studying television audiences, it is more common to deal with indicators of the number of people, gender, age, state of marriage, level of education, profession, social status, income. A TV set, a computer, a tablet, a smartphone - all this is now television. Arranged on the air according to the broadcasting grid, we watch television programs at home; it is called linear viewing. However, we can also request the content we are interested in on any screen at any time, anywhere - this is non-linear viewing. Recently, in connection with the Covid-19 pandemic, even journalists have been broadcasting from home. It used to be just television but nowadays the definition of "big television" has come into use. Television is primarily what it shows - television content that has certain characteristics. The usual division is based on the basic functions of television - informative, entertaining, and educational. However, a lot depends on the idea, thematic focus, genre structure, origin, format, and content. The division is necessary for a greater understanding of what exactly we intend to produce according to the formula: there is an idea, what the manufacturer wants to convey to the audience, after, it is necessary to understand how it can be made and with what content filled directly. This article deals with approaches to the classification of television programs.

Full textAbstract:
Television (TV) can be found in most households in the country, broadcasting numerous programs that aim to inform and entertain. Its contents are watched every day by thousands of audiences at a single time, and most practically consider it a calendar and clock by using the programs as guides. TV sets at home are usually the centerpiece of rooms – the focal point in which members of the household would gather. In rural communities, people gather at the window of a “better off,” meaning television-owning neighbor. Watching television has become a familial and communal activity for Filipinos. Research in the mass media has more or less kept aside the issue of the family as audience. Media scholars treat the family only as a part of the natural viewing group or target audience. It is for this reason that studying the relationship among parenting practices, structure of Filipino families and the consumption of the PG (parental guidance)-rated television programs becomes important. As television watching is a social activity at the Filipino home, it is important to consider the disparity that the PG-intended programs bring into the equation. This study analyzed the consumption of participant parents residing in households in urban communities in Laguna, specifically in the municipalities of San Pedro, Biñan, and Sta. Rosa, and focused on the actual interaction of the parents (whether biological or surrogate) and/or the guardians with the children during viewing of PG-rated TV programs. The viewing environment, the activities the family undergoes while watching the program, and the parenting practices in the particular households were also factored in the study, to identify the actions that parents take when they watch these programs, and to trace the factors that could affect the parents-children interaction in TV viewing. Based on the data gathered, including those in a previous study, parents do notice and understand the PG warnings on television and the possible effects that TV can give to children. Despite this awareness, parents do not mediate over their children’s television viewing. Whether the parenting pattern in a family is strict or more lenient, parents are inclined to use the television in its limited ways: as a pleasure and entertainment tool, as an instrument to keep children preoccupied while they are unavailable because of work or chores, and as a form of reward and punishment for their children. Moreover, the study stresses that parents should be more responsible for their children’s well-being by mediating over any TV program, with or without the PG rating. This will lead to a habitual reinforcement of the real meaning of the PG rating.

Full textAbstract:
For a long time, various programs about books and reading appeared on TV and then disappeared. They were lost in the TV broadcasting and programs among other programs, cinema films and TV movies. And when programs were closed, they were quickly forgotten. The purpose of this article is to reveal all such TV programs. The author studied the period of more than 50 years. The article gives the names of TV shows about books and reading, belonging to certain channels, and the time of airing. As possible, the author discloses their intent, concepts, content and the names of TV presenters. The sources for the article were weekly bulletins about TV programs, and in the last 30 years — also articles, notes, interviews in professional and general periodicals.In Soviet times, there were TV programs “In the world of books”, “Bookshop”, “Reading circle”. In 1978—1979, the TV presenter of the “Reading circle” was N.M. Sikorsky, then Director of the V.I. Lenin State Library of the USSR. In post-Soviet Russia, there got more broadcasts of that kind. These were both educational programs (“Book yard”, “Graphoman”, “Exlibris”, “Book storehouse”) and numerous commercial ones (“Bookstore”, “Home library”, “Bibliomania”, “World of books with Leonid Kuravlev”, “Book news”, “Book world”). The author gives more details are tells about the program “Graphoman”, which was invented and presented by A.N. Shatalov, the poet, critic and publisher. The program originated in 1994 and was broadcast on various channels for more than 10 years. Programs of the recent years are “Book for breakfast”, “Various Readings”, “Words order”, “Figure of speech”, “Pro-Reading”, “Book measurement”, “What to read?”. For over half a century, television actively supported the initiators and creators of various programs that promoted books and reading. This activity has slightly declined in recent years. But viewers continue to learn from the TV screen about new books and watch events in the book industry.

Full textAbstract:
This article looks at French television during and after the post-war period to explore the relationships that programmes systematically established between home-making in social housing, housekeeping money management and women. It sheds light on the gendered dimensions of thrift and dwelling. French 1960’s Television reflected a range of urban transformations characteristic of the period: the development of high-rise estates, social housing, shopping centers. How should people inhabit these new environnements, new structures of dwelling and new services in order to keep up with regular household expenses such as paying rent, utility bills, buying food or covering child rearing costs? Since the 19th century, women had generally managed household budgets as part of the everyday domestic cultures. These heavy financial responsibilities were relayed by televised documentaries prompting questions about the types of in/appropriate activities and attitudes, knowledges and expertises shown on mainstream TV at the time. Television was constantly problematizing working-class subjectivities through women’s voice. On the one hand, television reports showed women always counting the money and thrifting in order to control the household comsumption and to avoid debts. In the documentaries I analyse, the women describe in detail their economic problems and moral economies they are conditioned to operate within. On the other hand, TV programmes were replete with the specialist home economics tips that were meant to spread normative representations of dwelling in order to educate housewives. Women’s activities are tied to the welfare state which is revealed in all its complexity, controlling with one hand the rationalisation of domestic budgets and practices, and, with the other, improving living conditions and protecting individuals against vulnerabilities.

Full textAbstract:
The smart home culture is rapidly increasing across the globe and driving smart home users toward utilizing smart appliances. Smart television (TV) is one such appliance that is embedded with smart technology. The users of smart TV have their interests in the programs. However, automatic recommendation of programs for user-to-user is still under-researched. Several papers discussed recommendation systems, but those are related to different applications. Even though there are some works on recommending programs to smart TV users (single-user and multi-user), they did not discuss the smart TV camera module to capture and validate the user image for recommending personalized programs. Hence, this paper proposes a convolutional neural network (CNN)-based personalized program recommendation system for smart TV users. To implement this proposed approach, the CNN algorithm is trained on the datasets ‘CelebFaces Attribute Dataset’ and ‘Labeled Faces in the Wild-People’ for feature extraction and to detect a human face. The trained CNN model is applied to the user image captured by using the smart TV camera module. Further, the captured image is matched with the user image in the ‘synthetic dataset’. Based on this matching, the hybrid filtering technique is proposed and applied; thereby the recommendation of the respective program is done. The proposed CNN algorithm has achieved approximately 95% training performance. Besides, the performance of hybrid filtering is approximately 85% from the single-user perspective and approximately 81% from the multi-user perspective. From this, it is observed that hybrid filtering outperformed conventional content-based filtering and collaborative filtering techniques.

Full textAbstract:
This article examines the “turn to lifestyle” in the longstanding genres of how-to and domestic advice programming, which began in 1994 with the launch of Home & Garden Television (HGTV) and the Food Network. It frames lifestyle's spread across the growing cable television system in the late 1990s and 2000s as the result of industrial conditions that favored the growth and consolidation of cable networks, as well as growing cultural interest in “lifestyle” as a consumerist form of identity. In this context, a turn to lifestyle in programming offered the new networks HGTV and Food Network a way to broaden the appeal of their programs in an increasingly competitive niche cable environment, as well as to secure upscale audiences for advertisers. The article examines a range of HGTV and Food Network programs that utilized lifestyle's logic, including Emeril Live!, Paula's Home Cooking, Barefoot Contessa, Divine Design with Candice Olson, Design on a Dime, and Small Space, Big Style. In such programs, lifestyle became codified in a set of televisual logics that departed from those found on how-to programs: they articulated middle-class fantasies of ordinariness, had an attenuated focus on instruction in favor of the more diffuse and aspirational concept of “inspiration,” and posited small-scale domestic gatherings as the ideal mode of social engagement in a period of diminishing wealth and income security.

AbstractThis paper is about the television representation of aging and the ensuing social discourse. We analysed the content of 756 hours of television (3 weeks from 2 television networks: Société Radio-Canada and TVA in March 1992). We found that television discourse in different types of programs (information, talkshows, fiction, advertising) uses many strategies that deny the aging process and, in doing so, reassure the public about aging. Television also talks about the exclusion of the elderly in our society. But, at the same time, it must charm these potential consumers. Old people watching several hours of television daily know that they are excluded from society, except as consumers.

Full textAbstract:
In giving the home audience an experience that combines both images and sound, surpassing the potential of the traditional mediums of print and radio, the audience rallying around the television increased by the day. Reality shows originated as a result of the introducing new programme models to the television. Attempts were made to portray real life forms of people in a more realistic way through the reality format. A majority of the audience were inclined towards watching reality programmes and the trend was to see the rise of modern social media activism. Thus, the research problem herein was to analyse whether the strategic use of social media, causes reality television programs to become more popular. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the close association of reality television programs with social media directly influenced the increase in popularity of reality television programs due to recent dynamics and trends in the reality program format. The study was conducted by analytically studying books written on reality shows, research-related information that has been published far and utilizing data on the present context. The use of new technology, especially in reality shows, has changed the face of the realist model. Various data showed that different cultural changes were taking place in each of the social systems in an attempt to attract more audiences apart from reality. The study also establishes that reality themes that originated in the United States may have spread to other parts of the world. The data also reflect that many countries are imitating reality shows produced in the United States. With the rise of social media in the modern Internet age, all television channels have used social media to promote their programs. Due to the large number of young individuals watching TV shows on social media, reality shows were also broadcasted live on social media and television stations released episodes considered to have the best reach on social media. Accordingly, this study highlights that there is currently no single existence for reality shows without social media activism.

With the merge of digital television (DTV) and the exponential growth of broadcasting network, an overwhelmingly amount of information has been made available to a consumer's home. Therefore, how to provide consumers with the right amount of information becomes a challenging problem. In this paper, we propose an electronic programming guide (EPG) recommender based on natural language processing techniques, more specifically, text classification. This recommender has been implemented as a service on a home network that facilitates the personalized browsing and recommendation of TV programs on a portable remote device. Evaluations of our Maximum Entropy text classifier were performed on multiple categories of TV programs, and a near 80% retrieval rate is achieved using a small set of training data.

Full textAbstract:
This article makes a case for formal analysis of historical TV through close readings that demonstrate the ways in which postwar television unsettled the domestic sphere. While scholars of historical television have dismissed formal criticism for its ignorance of contexts of production and reception, I argue that the content and form of TV in its developmental years directly contextualize industry and society. In its first decades of mass use, television refigured spatial relationships by creating an uncanny liminality between the public sphere of commerce and entertainment and the private sphere of the home. These newly blurred boundaries had profound implications for postwar conceptions of gender, home, and family. Through both form and content, programs as wide-ranging as the science-fiction anthology The Twilight Zone (CBS, 1959–64) and domestic sitcoms The George Burns and Gracie Allen Show (CBS, 1950–58) and The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet (ABC, 1952–66) developed modes of address to articulate and work through their viewers’ anxieties. In order to probe the wide-reaching implications of the new medium’s intimate address, I argue that scholars of historical television must be as attentive to program content, textuality, and form as they are to technological and industrial developments.

Full textAbstract:
HGTV (Home and Garden Television) is an American cable channel devoted to property TV, with programs that combine lifestyle and reality, demonstrating the rewards of home investments. Despite the focus on domestic property and the well-styled home, the programs are generally considered bland, and the cumulative impact of the network’s simple, formulaic programs is considered relaxing and even comforting. But some HGTV programs prominently feature domestic conflict as part of their repetitive narrative formula, disturbing the domestic ideals that the network promotes. While pat endings for individual episodes restore domestic harmony and unity through new (or renewed) domestic space, domestic disputes serve as a persistent reminder of everyday domestic discontent. This emerges in the shows with narratives that highlight conflict – House Hunters, House Hunters International and Love It or List It. But the implications resonate further in the context of the broader esthetic-textual dynamics of HGTV. Repetition within episodes, between episodes of any given show, among many different shows, and in the programming schedule makes the ‘happy endings’ as transitory as the domestic disputes that dominate individual episodes. HGTV programs are lifestyle–reality hybrids that promote quality lifestyle through reality-styled drama. The same textual strategies that demonstrate quality lifestyle also open the door to a lingering sense of domestic unease.

This paper presents some changes occurring in Latin America related to the relationship between children and television channels and programs. There are new ways of television consumption by children at home, and new tendencies in the understanding of reception processes in children programming. Television production has had considerable change and this has produced important transformations in children’s representations inside the text. Mediation is required in order to take advantage of this programming. En este artículo se presentarán algunos cambios que están apareciendo en América Latina en la relación de los niños con los canales y programas televisivos. Estos cambios aparecen en las nuevas formas de consumo infantil y en nuevas tendencias en el análisis de la recepción de los programas infantiles; pero también en las nuevas formas de realización de los programas, que involucran cambios en la representación infantil simbólica en el texto. La plena utilidad de estos programas requiere del proceso de mediación.

The research was conducted to explain a potential link between antisocial behavior and how children made sense of television program, Anak Jalanan. A survey was conducted on 248 children from 10-12 years old in Semarang with a non-random sampling technique. Besides, a correlation technique was used to examine a relationship. The results confirm that perceived reality on the show is related to children’s anti-social behavior. The findings bring about a warning alert to families, communities, and organizations that have concerns about the impact of media on children. They should reunite their efforts to do a more massive movement to make the media content more children-friendly. Parents also need to employ parental mediation at home to reduce the negative impact of such television programs on their children.

Abstract The Maldives’ huge waste management challenge threatens ocean and marine life. Government and non-governmental organizations have conducted environmental awareness and education programs; although, such short-lived, one-off awareness raising approaches have been unsuccessful. Our research using a modified Trials of Improved Practices (TIPs) approach looked into replacing plastic bags used in households with reusable ones, particularly for shopping. Households found changing to reusable bags hard due to habit, but a bigger barrier was the municipal waste collection guidelines that require disposal of waste in a plastic bag. Though households are aware of and interested in reducing environmental impacts, all participating households stated they cannot fully change to reusable bags.

Abstract The present study determinedperspectives of pre-school teachers on television viewing in determining behavioral tendencies among preschoolers in Kenya. The study was guided by Albert Bandura’s Social Learning Theory. The target population of the study comprised of one head teacher, three ECDE teachers. Saturated sampling technique was used to sample 3 pre-school teachers.15 preschoolers were sampled using Purposive sampling technique after putting them into three stratus of those from rural, urban and more urban areas, which comprised of 20, 20 and 10 preschoolers from each stratum respectively. The researcher used interview schedules, observation schedules and focus group discussion guides as the study instruments. Validity of the instruments was ensured by seeking expert judgments of the supervisors and trustworthiness of qualitative data was also ensured. Thematic analysis was employed to analyze the data. The study findings revealed that there was increased physical aggression among children. Though; some children were also empathetic and loving. The finding also established an increased engagement in indoor and outdoor activities by the children. The results further showed an increased language development among children. Moreover, there was also enhanced mutual relationship realized among the learners. The study recommended that; pre-school teachers should encourage parents to engage their children in watching educational TV programs while at home, this was because the study findings revealed that children who watched television had well developed language and also performed well academically. Parents should limit TV viewing time per day and totally banning programs that are too violent or offensive by checking the television listings and programs ahead of time to ensure age appropriate programs, this was because the study findings revealed that children had long hours of TV watching.

Full textAbstract:
Entertainment culture becomes a structural and typological unit of festive/everyday culture, which uses it every day in the “loop” mode: television show programs, presentations of new boutiques in shopping centers, city fairs, art exhibitions, performances at concert venues, calendars with the slogan “Every day is a holiday”, computer games (as the advertisement says, “The best anti-stress game of all time!”), and so on. Certainly, in this entertainment cycle, a person’s acute perception of festivity becomes dulled, and fatigue from constant heightened emotionality appears. A person gets tired of both entertainment and games. In this sense, “Homo ludens” is not just a concept, but a problem identified and outlined by J. Huizinga, which became obvious in the 20s of the 21st century. The article examines the features of modern culture as a screen, visual culture, directly related to such an attribute as entertainment.

When analyzing the reception of different Latin American television genres, it can be seen how education is conceptualized –from the point of view of subjects inserted in their daily social practices– as more greatly linked to affectivity than to cognition, thus distinguishing it from knowledge generated through formal schooling. In this sense, television programming has come to be redefined as educational, based on the audiences’ needs in each of their different home environments. Reception studies show that various programs are frequently classified as «educational programs », including news/journalistic programs, entertainment and fictional shows. This presents an opportunity for organizations and professionals of television to contribute to the improvement in the quality of life of their audience members, especially children and adolescents. With regards to the specific challenges that Latin American public television face, it is necessary to shift the axis from propaganda/situational to audiovisual programs that take into account the verbalized needs of various research projects in the region, especially for social groups that suffer not only financial disadvantages, but also those dealing with insecurity and ethnic exclusion.A través del análisis de la recepción de diversos géneros televisivos latinoamericanos, surgen dimensiones de una conceptualización de lo educativo –desde el punto de vista de los sujetos instalados en sus prácticas sociales cotidianas– más vinculada a lo afectivo que a lo cognitivo, conocimiento generado por la escuela formal. En este sentido, la programación televisiva es «re-significada» como educativa a partir de las necesidades de las audiencias, situadas en ambientes hogareños particulares. Los estudios de recepción muestran la calificación recurrente como «programa educativo» hacia espacios que, según la denominación académico-profesional, son periodísticos, magazines de entretenimiento y ficcionales. Esto plantea una oportunidad para las organizaciones y profesionales de la televisión, en términos de contribuir a mejorar la calidad de vida de las personas y, especialmente, de los niños y adolescentes. En el contexto latinoamericano, los retos de la televisión pública se sitúan en desplazar el eje desde lo propagandístico/ coyuntural hacia procesos comunicacionales audiovisuales que den cuenta de las necesidades verbalizadas en diversas investigaciones en la región, especialmente para los grupos sociales que viven en condiciones de vida carenciadas, no solo en lo económico, sino también en ambientes marcados por la inseguridad y la exclusión étnica.

Full textAbstract:
This essay offers a close reading of two rarely discussed videos by moving-image artists Omer Fast and Michael Robinson. Fast’s T3–AEON (2000) and Robinson’s Light Is Waiting (2007) stand as representative of home video appropriation. Utilizing home video’s time-shifting properties, Fast and Robinson returned to home video purchases of cinema and television programs—respectively, The Terminator and Full House—as well as to analog technologies at a moment when they were being eclipsed by the digital. While the return to would-be outmoded or obsolescent technologies is typically tinged with the romanticism of nostalgia, their work pushes through the traps of nostalgia and opens into the times of anachronies. Drawing upon the writing of philosopher Jacques Rancière, anachronies simultaneously configure multiple temporal lines, instilling an ever-changing transformation of personal history, cultural memory, and historical thinking in the present. Revealing the connection between their practice and the multiple temporal lines present via home video appropriation, this essay offers a critical rethinking of nostalgia and anachronism—aesthetically, culturally, and theoretically—through the site of two artists’ moving-image practice.

Full textAbstract:
The governance of affect by capital has seen its ideological legitimation and emblematic site of production in the mainstream television industry, specifically reality television programs, as they provide templates for affective self-presentation to the public at large. As even a cursory glance at most reality television production demonstrates, it is most often women’s bodies and self-concepts that bear the burden of signifying and legitimating the message of this new economic formation: ‘conform to our template, be seen, and build a reputation!’ This article will focus on the Real Housewives franchise, which along with its network Bravo is credited with saving the fortunes of NBC, as the paradigmatic example of these new narrative trends and business models. It will interrogate the historical resonances and discontinuities between the economy of affective visibility now apparent on reality television and its modes of production and the origins of the ‘real’ housewife in early capitalism. At this time, women’s skills, bodies and reproductive capacities were violently restructured; forbidden from earning a wage or having money, women’s work inside and outside the home was simultaneously appropriated and concealed. As reality television inaugurates new kinds of labor and value creation in the 21st century, it does so in ways that are deeply gendered or ‘housewifized’; reality television’s forms of hidden, precarious, and unregulated labour recall the appropriation and denigration of the value of women’s work by systems of capitalist expansion in the 16th and 17th centuries.

This study explored residential (housing and town) satisfaction of rural older adults aging in place, relating to demographic and housing characteristics. We conducted a structured, face-to-face survey with 149 rural older adults. Regression results revealed that housing satisfaction for rural older adults were significantly related to demographic and housing characteristics, including personal health status, healthy home status, and structure size. Bivariate analysis revealed that satisfaction with a town feature, shopping location, was the most frequently related to demographic and housing variables, followed by cost of living in town; and that health status was most frequently associated with town feature satisfaction. The study results can enhance programs and/or services for older adults aging in rural communities.

During the Covid-19 pandemic, home visits were a solution in providing tutoring services at Elementary School Muhammadiyah Kasiyan, Puger District, Jember Regency. This activity is carried out through planning, implementing, evaluating, controlling programs and making activity reports. In supporting the success of this school program, it is necessary to have interactive communication between teachers and students. Furthermore, family support is needed to create a comfortable family environment in learning. The impacts of the home visit are increasing the knowledge and changing students’ behavior in term of habit of worship as well as the fluency in reading the Al-Quran. The inhibiting factors for this activity are the students' lack of awareness to learn, the less parental support, the television shows, the playmates, the schedules that have not been agreed yet and the lack of teacher commitment in teaching.

Full textAbstract:
When the ‘action’ at major news events is observed over days or weeks by television cameras, how far does the medium become, whether knowingly or not, a participant and shaper in the action it observes? How far does the action itself become, to some degree, a performance before the cameras? While not ignoring either the moral or practical implications of such questions, lan Watson sets out primarily to analyze the ‘frame’ of television news broadcasting, and to consider the events within that frame as elements of performance. He considers the six days of rioting in Los Angeles in 1992, sparked by the acquittal of police officers charged with the beating of Rodney King – itself caught on camera – as a case study, in which the often ignored role of the observer, whether the news anchor-man in the studio or the audience watching at home, comes in for corrective scrutiny. He concludes that in the ‘mediated present’ of the news event on television, the medium is indeed as much a producer as a reporter of an action which is pervasively shaped by its presence. An Advisory Editor and regular contributor to New Theatre Quarterly, lan Watson teaches in the Department of Visual and Performing Arts at Rutgers, where he is Co-ordinator of the Theatre and Television Programs.

Full textAbstract:
The process of gente-fication, or Latinx-led urban revitalization in workingclass barrios, has recently gained widespread attention and is at the heart of the popular US television series Vida (2018–20) and Gentefied (2020–22). Both programs serve as windows into contemporary Latinx struggles over belonging, “home,” and identity against the backdrop of multicultural neoliberalism and multicultural whiteness in the United States. We examine how change in the fictional Latinx neighborhoods in Vida and Gentefied highlights the precarity of home for Latinxs in the United States, even as Latinx representation has achieved new heights across social life. Vida and Gentefied specifically depict home as threatened by processes of gentrification and gente-fication. Even though the home is in distress, it continues to offer Latinx protagonists safety, love, and belonging through a heterogeneous network of individuals, experiences, and memories. In their attempt to stabilize home, Latinx protagonists find autonomy and a home that heals, but in contrasting the popular conceptualization of gente-fication as a gentler, more culturally sensitive form of gentrification emphasizing racial and economic uplift for barrio residents, we argue that Vida and Gentefied utilize gente-fication as a narrative tool that rests Latinx belonging on tenets of assimilation.

The function of education is traditionally attached to the role of the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS). Televisi Republik Indonesia (TVRI), stated in the Broadcasting Act 32/2002 as one of the public broadcasting institutions, along with Radio Republik Indonesia (RRI), are to carry out this educational function. This article will analyze the education function performed by TVRI. This research employs a single case study design. Data obtained through interviews and literature review. The results of the study show that educational broadcasts on TVRI have been around for a long time. The results of the documentation study show that educational broadcasts on TVRI receive a positive response from the public. Field research shows that one of the educational programs on TVRI, Study from Home (henceforth referred to as Belajar Dari Rumah/ BDR) has outperformed other public programs. Although traditionally considered one of the main functions of public television, the implementation of educational broadcasts, especially formal education on TVRI is not consistently carried out. The absence of formal education programs at TVRI was due to technical constraints in the form of a lack of compatible studio equipment to record formal education programs and unavailable budgets for the programs..

Full textAbstract:
The author examines the institutional originality of television in the countries of the European Union. The purpose of the study is to explain the nature of the institution of European broadcasting, which better than anything else reflects the idea of a common European home. A brief historical overview of the establishment of the European Broadcasting Union and cooperation between national broadcasters in Europe is given. The task is to identify the dynamics and trends in the development of the community of European broadcasters in the context of political, economic and technological changes in recent years. European TV is a testing ground for global TV, in which international (primarily American) and pan-European cross-border TV channels play an increasingly important role. Domestication of such channels occurs both through the localization of the content of programs, and through the titration of audio content in regional languages. The institutionalization of European television broadcasting takes place through various competitions and the activities of EU decentralized bodies, which are called upon to support joint projects in the field of TV, cinema, and the professional education of journalists (European Executive Agency for Education and Culture). At the same time, European television is not concerned about unification, keeping in mind the motto of the European Union - “In varietate сoncordia”. The diversity of the information space of the European continent is associated with the presence of several stable models for the functioning of television production, as well as with regional cultures that influence both media consumption patterns and television viewing volumes.

Full textAbstract:
The phenomenon of the television industry that is focused on rating, sharing, and advertising makes television programs more focused on entertainment programs rather than educational programs. The audience groups of television are mostly housewives who stay more at home and they are as a key figure in the education of children in the family. Strengthening the literacy media in Tegalrejo becomes important as the demographic condition shows that mostly the household mothers have low education levels, heterogeneous, and relatively poor. They spend more time watching television without attempting to criticize the content of the program. Moreover, the impressions and attitudes of the housewife are heavily influenced by the frequency of watching television. Therefore, we need to strengthen their literacy media to prevent the negative effect of television and to shape the audience to be more critical and smarter in watching the television. This research uses community-based research (CBR), which actively involves the community. The implementation of strategy in media literacy training begins with the activities of related studies to gain a better understanding about the media literacy, the position and role of housewives in observing and selecting media content through seminars and workshops, pre- and post-test about media literacy. Furthermore, learn the discourse from various groups of societies related to their views and opinions on media literacy movement. After a series of activities have been completed, it was found the testimonies from participants about the broadcasting picture in Indonesia and an image, message, and their expectations for the improvement of broadcasting in Indonesia.[Fenomena industri televisi yang fokus pada rating, share dan advertising membuat program televisi lebih fokus pada program hiburan dan mengesampingkan program edukasi. Kelompok pemirsa televisi dari kalangan ibu rumah tangga tinggal lebih lama di rumah dan mereka adalah tokoh sentral dalam pendidikan anak-anak dalam keluarga. Penguatan media literasi di Tegalrejo menjadi penting karena kondisi demografi di daerah tersebut berpendidikan rendah, heterogen dan relatif miskin. Mereka menghabiskan lebih banyak waktu di depan televisi, menonton televisi di rumah tanpa ada usaha untuk mengkritik konten tayangan acara televisi dan sikap yang tampak pada ibu rumah tangga sangat dipengaruhi oleh jumlah frekuensi mereka menonton tayangan televisi sehingga perlu penguatan literasi televisi guna melawan dampak negative televisi dan mewujudkan penonton yang cerdas, kritis dalam menonton acara televisi. Penelitian ini merupakan bentuk penelitian yang melibatkan peran serta komunitas (Community Base Research). Strategi implementasi pelatihan literasi media diawali dengan kegiatan studi terkait untuk memahami literasi media, posisi dan peran ibu rumah tangga dalam melihat dan memilih konten media melalui seminar dan workshop, pra dan post-test tentang literasi media. Selanjutnya, wacana dari berbagai kalangan masyarakat terkait pemikiran mereka terhadap gerakan literasi media. Setelah serangkaian kegiatan selesai, ditemukan kesaksian dari peserta tentang gambaran penyiaran di Indonesia dan sebuah citra, pesan dan harapan mereka untuk penyempurnaan penyiaran di Indonesia.]

Full textAbstract:
The steadily growing popularity of grocery home-delivery services is most likely based on the convenience experienced by its customers. However, the perishable nature of the products imposes certain requirements during the delivery process. The customer must be present when the delivery arrives so that the delivery process can be completed without interrupting the cold chain. Therefore, the grocery retailer and the customer must mutually agree on a time window during which the delivery can be guaranteed. This concept is referred to as the attended home delivery (AHD) problem in the scientific literature. The phase during which customers place orders, usually through a web service, constitutes the computationally most challenging part of the logistical processes behind such services. The system must determine potential delivery time windows that can be offered to incoming customers and incrementally build the delivery schedule as new orders are placed. Typically, the underlying optimization problem is a vehicle routing problem with a time windows. This work is concerned with a case given by an international grocery retailer’s online shopping service. We present an analysis of several efficient solution methods that can be employed to AHD services. A framework for the operational planning tools required to tackle the order placement process is provided. However, the basic framework can easily be adapted to be used for many similar vehicle routing applications. We provide a comprehensive computational study comparing several algorithmic strategies, combining heuristics utilizing local search operations and mixed-integer linear programs, tackling the booking process. Finally, we analyze the scalability and suitability of the approaches.

It is no secret that COVID 19 and its consequences have affected almost all aspects of our life. We have become focused on life at home, the approach to work has changed, and the definition of remote work has taken root in our vocabulary. Despite all the negative aspects, the pandemic has accelerated the development of key technological trends, such as distance learning, telemedicine, remote work, online shopping, contactless payments, 3D printing, which leveled out supply disruptions, robotics, a new generation of 5G mobile communications with its capabilities, and of course, the online entertainment industry. Our consumer preferences have changed during this year; however, the need for entertainment has only increased. Many believe that nowadays, the Internet and television era is a thing of the past; nevertheless, statistics do not confirm this. In the third quarter of this year alone, global TV sales have increased by 12.9% over the same period in 2019, which is 38% more than in the previous quarter. Television viewing has increased, and television program views have skyrocketed. Streaming content has become even more popular; streaming services allow one to watch absolutely everything - movies, TV series, news at any time and from any device. All these processes are connected with the fact that, during the quarantine, cinemas were closed, the attendance of which has already decreased in recent years. They opened with restrictions on viewers’ seating; the premieres were postponed for a year, even two - until the spring of 2021 and 2022. This year, the world of the media and entertainment industry has become: remote, virtual, streaming and personalized. The driver is the consumer, so market players pay great attention to innovation, focusing on personalization. At the forefront of new technologies is the Disney company, which presents its films both in theatrical screenings and on its online platform. Television is also not left behind; on November 3, VGTRK launched its "Smotrim" media platform. The audience’s consumption habits have already changed, interest in media is increasing and moving towards digitalization. The pandemic has accelerated the process. How this is happening and what awaits the industry is covered in this article.

Full textAbstract:
This essay examines the fascination with bodily conversion that characterizes recent HBO programming. Dramas and comedies like True Blood, Veep, Silicon Valley, and True Detective describe human forms in various states of transformation: into a menagerie of supernatural creatures, polling data, digital information and, even, the landscape of the American South. These transformations anticipate and seek to rationalize the exchange of the programs in which they appear into and out of diverse forms of Time Warner brand equity – even as they rehearse anxieties that the network's famed “quality” diminishes in the face of such exchanges. Female characters bear the brunt of this reflexivity; their forcibly contorted and monetized bodies figure the temporary material form assumed by otherwise liquid equity as it moves within Time Warner and, ultimately, over Internet lines and into the viewer's home. The network's famed misogyny is, in this respect, self-conscious and idiosyncratic, and reveals something essential about the incoherence of HBO's parent company at the moment that the network discovers new pathways for the direct distribution of its product.

Increasingly, public health programs are recommending the use of information and communication technologies to address the psychosocial needs of Older Adults (OAs). Recently, several applications that allow access to communication and stimulation functionalities using digital interactive television (DiTV) have been developed. The use of the television interface to access digital services seems to help meet several accessibility and usability needs of OAs. However, its use entails other challenges related to different dimensions (organizational, technological, ethical, etc.). This study aims to identify the factors that enable or hinder the use of DiTV by OAs living in geriatric institutions. A qualitative interview case study was conducted in three French geriatric facilities. A total of 25 semi-structured interviews were carried out with residents and care professionals, between February and April 2022, to identify enablers and barriers to DiTV use. Data were processed using a thematic deductive analysis inspired by a multidimensional Health Technology Assessment model. The analysis showed that DiTV use may be limited by organizational (e.g., workload), technological (e.g., ergonomic issues), human (e.g., health issues), ethical (e.g., privacy), and safety factors (e.g., frustration due to technical problems). A summary of these factors and five recommendations for DiTV implementation in geriatric settings are presented in this paper.

Full textAbstract:
Intellectuals and artists have been crafting an image of the Romanian peasant as the building block of the nation since the second half of the 19th century. The process went hand in hand with the modernization of the elites, and the peasant was thus mainly ‘discovered’ within the cultural framework of Romanticism, as the ‘eternal autochthon’ (Mihăilescu,2017, p.173), creator of the specific Kultur of the Romanian people. However, dramatic social transformations such as the difficult transition period of the ʹ90s have shifted the focus from a complimentary representation of the peasant as the national foundation – and all the positive characteristics of his/her habitus in terms of material, spiritual and aesthetic values– to a rather alienated and anachronistic figure coming across as a burden that has to be carried into modernity by the enlightened social strata. This paper uses visual analysis, grounded in Barthesian semiotics, to explore the changes in modes of representation of the peasant in popular media from the depository of national values to a marginal lower class, striving to keep up with the urban lifestyle. Various portrayals of peasants in TV series and sketches, movies and memes point to the degradation of the peasant figure in the public imagination. Images of poverty, bad taste and a lack of hygiene seem to pollute the bodies, garments and home environments of the rural characters, with a toxic effect on their language and behaviour as well. Although there have always been derogatory images of the peasants in the discourse of the elites (Mihăilescu also coined the term ‘domestic primitive’ for the representation associated with the historical tendency to portray the peasants as a backward population incapable of progress), in recent times this tendency has prevailed, especially with the rural-themed successful TV series Las Fierbinți, for mainly ideological reasons which will be discussed. Thus, apart from deconstructing a national myth, I argue that the representation of contemporary peasants and their degenerating habitus also contributes to the polarization in the Romanian society.
