“…Rather, we are who we are in terms of data’. This does not simply involve voluntarily and freely ‘constructing the self’ as a social-psychological entity within a digital world of avatars or online personas, as suggested by Cynthia Carter Ching and Brian Foley (2012: 10). As Cheney-Lippold argues, ‘it is our data that is being watched, not our selves’ (2017: 21).…”

This article traces the formation of popular music idol industries in China and the emergence of data fandom. It charts the growth of digital platforms and historicizes the commercial and geopolitical itinerations linking cultural production in Japan, South Korea, and China. It locates data fandom as an integral part of the popular music industries reconfigured by digital social media platforms; a structural change from the production-to-consumption ‘supply chain’ model of the recording era towards emergent circuits of content that integrate industries and audiences. Data fans understand how their online activities are tracked, and adopt individual and collective strategies to influence metric and semantic information reported on digital platforms and social media. This article analyses how the practices of data fans impact upon charts, media and content traffic, illustrating how this activity benefits the idols they are following, and enhances a fan’s sense of achievement and agency.

“…The campus-based sessions had offered a face-to-face socially situated space (Intemann 2010) and engendered a collective spirit integral to perspective and positionality. The situated virtual space was differentit can be both solitary and social (Harris & Parrish 2006;Carter Ching & Foley 2012) and, for many, an unknown landscape that requires navigation and negotiation in a public domain (Feher 2019). Blanchard describes online social activity as 'surface acting' (Blanchard 2021: 293), particularly in relation to work-based activity, suggesting a superficial performance of interactivity, not always purposeful, more as a result of adapting to different, technical-induced requirements (Feher 2019).…”

This article tells the story of a university community engagement project that began in the late spring of 2020 when the world went into lockdown. Increased concern over women's welfare and well‐being was brought into question in relation to those who are vulnerable with complex needs and had suffered societal‐induced hardships. In conjunction with an innovative women's community project, this study considered the value of art‐based online support as a platform from which to offer a non‐judgemental and mindful space with a focus on identity and empowerment. The study is based on weekly art drop‐in online workshops for vulnerable women and considers the value of hybrid ‘spaces’ as a pedagogical and practical model of communicative support and collective care. Findings from this community‐engaged project highlight the responses and shifts within subjectivities through situated art experiences. As art educators, it offers us an understanding of the potential for cumulative and affective artmaking to build communities of care as an inclusive and emancipatory learning tool.

“…The self online refers to people’s conception of themselves based on the use and interactions they conduct over the Internet. In this regard, authors like Ching and Foley (2014) and Poletti and Rak (2014) suggest that the self online allows adolescents to construct themselves in different ways and offer a version of themselves according to their desires and preferences. In this line, Knutzen and Kennedy (2012) conclude that social interaction in a virtual environment can change the way adolescents perceive themselves.…”

For the Z-Generation, the Internet has become a very important experimentation laboratory for the discovery and validation of their identity. Despite the importance of the process of building the self in the adolescent, there are hardly any validated instruments that measure the self online. The aim of this research was to design and validate the Brief Self Online Scale (SO-8). A total of 843 students (384 boys, 45.6%), with an age range of 10 to 14 years participated. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) confirmed the hypothesized model of two correlated factors (Online Self-Perception and Online Idealized Projection), previously obtained through exploratory factor analysis (EFA). The reliability coefficients of Self Online dimensions were adequate. Indicators of convergent validity were obtained, finding significant correlations with self-concept, problematic Internet use, and online emotional intelligence. The SO-8 has adequate psychometric properties to be considered a reliable and valid tool to measure the construct of the Self Online in adolescents.
