“…Digital folklore is represented by various folkloristic forms, found mostly on the Internet [30]. A review of the key modern-day works demonstrates that e-folklore is syncretic, as seen in the diversity of folkloristic word-visual artefacts [23,33]. Digital folklore is diversified, sometimes complicated, and dynamic, which is an additional obstacle for research and typological attempts.…”

Numerous development techniques and attributes that define the unique essentiality of archaic rural tourism websites in Poland have been identified. However, the use of e-folklore graphics on the websites heretofore has not been analysed. The paper’s objective is to identify forms of digital folklore found on archaic websites of rural tourism facilities functioning in Poland from 2000 to 2015. The analysed sample was 185 websites stored in the Internet Archive. The focal points were the dynamics of content presentation and the type of graphic components, including marquee text containers and GIFs. The use of characteristic graphics and digital stamps was recorded as well. The results fuel a discussion concerning potential reasons for deleting copies stored in digital archives. It is further concluded that all digital copies, even those far from being complete or perfect, contribute to the integrity of the digital ecosystem as a whole. Therefore, the process of archiving Internet content must not be exclusive. Therefore, any actions towards preserving the digital ecosystem for further investigation are reasonable.

U radu se analizira humorističan prikaz školskog sustava u vrijeme pandemije koronavirusa na primjeru vizualno-verbalnih internetskih žanrova (image macro memi i viralne fotografije) u kontekstu humora o aktualnostima (engl. topical humor), tj. u suodnosu sa žanrom vica o aktualnostima (engl. topical jokes). Nudi se njihova tematsko-motivska tipologija u tri skupine motivirana najčešćim prikazima koronavirusa u školskom sustavu. Riječ je o 1) provođenju epidemioloških mjera za suzbijanje širenja koronavirusa u školama, 2) organizaciji nastavnog procesa u vrijeme pandemije te 3) reakcijama nastavnog osoblja na upute i izjave čelnika u školskom sustavu vezane uz organizaciju nastave u vrijeme pandemije. Ukazuje se na povezanost analiziranih primjera s vijestima u medijima i na satiričan prikaz čelnika u školstvu. U drugom se dijelu rada pokušava prikazati na koji se način postiže humorni učinak u vizualno-verbalnim internetskim žanrovima. Istraživanje je usmjereno na primjere objavljene na profilima društvenih mreža dviju aktivnih mrežnih stranica u sustavu obrazovanja – Nastavnici.org i Srednja.hr. Analizirani su primjeri objavljeni od početka pandemije koronavirusa u ožujku 2020. godine do kraja rujna iste godine.

“…Folklore has been used for specific political interests and strengthens the group's absolute power (Gencarella, 2009). Folklore is one of the means for legitimacy (Mashudi & Thoyib, 2017), propaganda (Astapova, 2017;Varga, 2015), and industry (De Caro, 2013;Dharma, 2018;Koven, 2008).…”

For the millennial generation, folklore is considered boring as a product of tradition. This generation prefers instant things and tends to avoid time-consuming processes. On the other hand, folklore is a product of tradition, which is more concerned with the process. However, it seems that folklore survives and even develops the following technological developments cross-generational. Folklore has adapted and changed into new forms in cyberspace. This article explains memes' visual variations and meanings with Minangkabau folklore content. There is a change in appearance and sense of folklore in internet memes. As a product of social practice, memes are also seen as an element of social processes. Therefore, this study uses social semiotics as an analysis tool. The result shows that in addition to showing creativity in building new folklore, memes also showed a shift in the understanding of traditional folklore. Memes also show the process and form of evolution of folklore so that it can survive in the rapid development of information technology. It contains hidden messages and statements in memes as a representation of attitudes towards social conditions and behavior.
