“…Along with the development of the times, mobile phones are also experiencing developments. Nowadays mobile phones are multimodal devices that allow users to communicate by speaking, engaging with text, or accessing online information (Ling & Baron, 2013). Moreover, at present time, mobile phones are coupled with a variety of advanced features, such as a camera, which gives humans the convenience of just one grip.…”

The purpose of this research is to challenge the modernism view and principles by revealing the negative issues and impacts of technology as portrayed in Mosquitoes (2017) play script written by Lucy Kirkwood. The research uses a qualitative method in showing and elaborating the findings. To challenge the modernism view, the research undertaken uses postmodernism lens with Jean Baudrillardâ€™s theory of simulation, simulacra, and hyperreality in analyzing situation and forms of those concepts which are hidden in the text. This research discovers that the advancement of technology makes the characters very dependent on technology itself, especially on computers, mobile phones, and the internet. However, this technological dependence is not accompanied by significant benefits as modernists assert, but rather tends to produce detrimental effects for the characters. The detrimental effect of using technology is that the characters are trapped in a world of hyperreality manifested in the form of fake news and cybercrimes, causing some serious problems that must be dealt with by them since the boundaries between real and fake have collapsed. This cause-effect regarding technology and hyperreality emphasizes a paradox that technology which is supposed to be controlled by humans yet control humans themselves because technology takes a role in shaping the way humans think and behave. In essence, the findings of this research reinforce that the positive view of modernism on advancement in human civilization is not fully materialized.

“…Response particles can be used following various first actions (see Section 2). To ensure comparability, the following analyses will concentrate on their use in the context of coordinating joint activities, which, among other things, involves planning future meetings, asking participants about their whereabouts, reaching a joint decision about a present for a friend, as this is one of the main domains for which mobile messaging is used (Ling & Baron 2013;Thurlow & Poff 2013). Texters collaboratively plot their next actions, they sort out all relevant background information needed, they make suggestions, proposals, requests, and offers (Couper-Kuhlen 2014b, for directive-commissive actions, also see Koivisto, this volume).…”

This book offers a collection of state-of-the-art conversation analytic work on the impact of different types of digital technologies and media on social interaction. It furthers our understanding of whether and to what extent the varying practices of digital interaction can be considered adaptations of the basic organisations and resources of co-present face-to-face interaction. The chapters explore the emerging practices in contemporary digital interaction and in interaction related to digital technologies. The volume is organised into four sections according to the platform or type of digital interaction: mobile messaging, social media, video conferencing, and human-computer interaction. Each of the chapters highlights an interactional or linguistic phenomenon – an action, a practice, a sequence, or a larger structure. Some of these are unique to online environments, such as emojis or hashtags, whereas some occur in both online and offline interaction, such as repair initiators and proposal sequences.

“…These research findings support the idea that network context as a specific condition of communication affects how one chooses, uses, and perceives different personal communication technologies (Katz & Aakhus, ). For this study, we did not include web‐based application usage of mobile phones such as e‐mail, SNSs, or IM because (a) the theory of bounded solidary (Ling, ) was proposed when uses of mobile applications were not yet prevalent, and (b) even nowadays, voice calling and texting appear to be the two major functions of mobile phones (Ling & Baron, ).…”
