P O Images in Social Media Research: Digital Tools and Methodological Challenges Online-Workshop, 10th February 2023, 9.00-16.30 (CET) From memes on Twitter and Reddit to Instagram posts and TikTok videos: Images are taking on increasingly important roles in social media communication. While social media research can draw on established tools in the field of text analysis, researching visual content still presents particular methodological challenges. How can images be systematically searched and scraped from the web? What qualitative and quantitative possibilities are there for structuring, visualising, and evaluating big image corpora and their metadata? How can a sustainable and critical approach to sensitive images look like? This one-day workshop aims to bring together image researchers from different disciplines. On a very hands-on level, we want to explore digital tools that might offer pragmatic solutions for researching images on the web. Furthermore, the academic (re)use of images from social media raises particular ethical and legal issues. Digital media researchers, legal scholars and art historians will provide insight into their method designs and open up critical perspectives on how to deal with visual content online.   Programme (PDF) 9.00 Verena Straub & Christoph Eggersglüß: Welcome and Introduction 9.15-11.15 Tools Bernhard Rieder: Analysing YouTube through data extraction – Introducing the YouTube data tools Stijn Peeters: Quali-quantitative internet research with 4CAT Jason Chao: Enriching image data with AI using Memespector-GUI Jens-Martin Loebel: Exploring Yenda and HyperImage – A scientific approach to networked digital image annotation and hypermedia publication lunch break 12.30-14.30 Methods Sabine Niederer: Visual methodologies for networked images Elena Pilipets: Deep TikTok – Three methods for tracing video memes Janna Joceli Omena & Richard Rogers: Analysing image collections with the computer vision network approach Lev Manovich: Protests, cities, selfies – How we visualise millions of social media images coffee break 15.00-16.30 Ethical and Legal Issues Grischka Petri: Private, social, public?
