Abstract. Participation to challenges within social networks is a very effective instrument for promoting a brand or event. In this paper, we take the challenge organizer's perspective, and we study how to raise the engagement of players in challenges where the players are stimulated to create and evaluate content, thereby indirectly raising the awareness about the brand or event itself. We illustrate a comprehensive model of the actions and strategies that can be exploited for progressively boosting the social engagement during the challenge evolution. The model studies the organizer-driven management of interactions among players, and evaluates the effectiveness of each action in light of several other factors (time, repetition, third party actions, interplay between different social networks, and so on). We evaluate the model through a set of experiment upon a real case, the YourExpo2015 challenge. Overall, our experiments lasted 9 weeks and mobilized hundreds of thousands of users on two different social platforms; our quantitative analysis assesses the validity of the model.

In 2008, MySpace was one of the world's top Internet destinations. Behind only Google and Yahoo in Internet traffic in America, it was the most popular social networking site (SNS) with some 300,000 profiles being added daily. Although MySpace would soon be supplanted in the SNS world by the likes of Facebook and Twitter, it still has over 50 million unique users each month and over 300,000 video views monthly. Research performed during the period of its height in popularity is still valuable not only for historical perspective, but also for what it teaches about the habits of SNS users today. This study of the uses and effects of MySpace among Christian teens and young adults (n = 242), computes four composite variables: a Positive Effects Variable (PEV), a Negative Effects Variable (NEV), an Expressing Faith Variable (EFV), and a Friends and Family Variable (FFV), in order to consider interaction effects among various categories such as, age, gender, church attendance frequency, MySpace use experience and frequency, number of MySpace friends, etc. The results provide important insights for those who wish to maintain and promote a group identity through SNS platforms.

Section: Introducción El Ser En La Era De Su Reproductibilidad Técnicaunclassified

“…Según Goffman (1959), en diferentes contextos sociales, el individuo tiende a manipular y controlar la impresión que los demás tienen sobre éste y, al mismo tiempo, configura su propia opinión sobre los demás. El objetivo del individuo es construir una representación positiva de uno mismo (Leary y Kowalski, 1990;Dywer, 2007; Walter, 2011) que, además, puede ser múltiple y darse en diferentes redes sociales para reflejar una componente diferente de su identidad (Baym, 2010).Por otro lado, Deleuze (1997) analiza la identidad a través de la diferencia: sitúa a ésta como algo ni opuesto ni subordinado a la identidad. Lo idéntico, lo uno, el ser, lejos de ser lo previo y el fundamento de lo existente, opera segmentando la multiplicidad y estableciendo oposiciones entre estas segmentaciones, entendidas como diferentes: la identidad procede de la diferencia.…”

La construcción de la identidad como un relato en las redes sociales. Estudio de un caso.TIPO DE TRABAJO Póster. PALABRAS CLAVEIdentidad, redes sociales, arte. KEY WORDSIdentity, Social Networks, Art. RESUMENSofía Bellange nació el 7 de marzo de 1987 en la ciudad de Namur. Su interés por la fotografía surgió a una edad muy temprana: con solo 13 años empezó con sus primeros trabajos, en los que adoptó un estilo característico. A partir de 2002, comenzó a construir sus primeras obras experimentales, en las que combinaba la edición digital con la fotografía analógica. Esta serie de trabajos le llevó a desarrollar, a partir de 2010, una técnica que denominó passé composé, y que tuvo su origen en el interés por el análisis de la naturaleza del pasado y de su relación con el presente. Con este método, Bellange utiliza el presente para recrear el pasado y construir identidades y relaciones que nunca han existido, pero que tienen una apariencia de veracidad incontestable. Como las identidades que construye, Sofía Bellange tampoco ha existido, si bien existe su producción artística y su rastro en las redes sociales.En este póster, se documenta la existencia de Sofía en las redes sociales desde que fue creada en 2012, así como el modo en que ha interactuado con el sistema del arte: ha sido seleccionada en certámenes como Mulier Mulieris (MUA), ha participado en la última edición de PHOTOALICANTE, y ha realizado numerosas exposiciones individuales y colectivas. Asimismo, se analiza el objeto del arte y la construcción de la identidad del artista. ABSTRACTSofía Bellange was born on March 3, 1987, in Namur. She first expressed an interest in photography aged thirteen, adopting a very personal style. In 2002 she began to experiment with a mixture of analogue and digital photography. This series of works leads her to develop, in 2010, a technique called passé composé, which had its origin in the analysis of nature of past and its relationship with present. With this method, Bellange uses the present time to recreate past and construct identities that have never existed, but with an undeniable real appearance. But as the identities she creates, Sofía does not exist, although her artistic production does as well as her trace in social networks.In this poster, we give documentary evidence of the existence of Sofía Bellange, since she was created in 2012 in Facebook. We also show the way she has interacted with the art system: selection in contemporary art calls as Mulier Mulieris (MUA), participation in the last edition of PHOTOALICANTE, as well as many solo and group exhibitions. Additionally, we analyse the construction of the artist identity in the social networks era. INTRODUCCIÓN. EL SER EN LA ERA DE SU REPRODUCTIBILIDAD TÉCNICAEn La obra de arte en la era de su reproductibilidad técnica, Walter Benjamin (1936) se refiere al enunciado de las relaciones de producción capitalista que introdujo Marx en El Capital, y expresa su intención de acometer una teoría materialista del arte. Para llevar a cabo esta teoría, Benjamin subra...
