Data Excess in Digital Media Research
Emerald Publishing Limited (Verlag)
978-1-80455-945-1 (ISBN)
Thinking beyond academic constraints and the constant push towards the next new fundable thing, Data Excess in Digital Media Research explicitly engages with data that has been left behind, ignored, obscured or even ‘written out’ of research publications. Positioning ‘excess’ as a conceptual, methodological, ethical and pragmatic challenge and opportunity, the authors in this edited collection examine what can happen when media researchers return to their surplus archives and develop new knowledge from what would otherwise be under-explored excess.
Provoking an ethical reconsideration of what we do, or do not do, with excess data, this is a call to action for researchers and scholars to rethink how they conduct their research as the consequences of datafication grow ever more central to both our academic endeavours and our lives.
