Not only can users connect to the Internet anywhere and anytime, they can also use their devices to map their precise geographic coordinates – and access location-specific information like restaurant reviews, historical information, and locations of other people nearby. The proliferation of location-aware mobile technologies calls for a new understanding of how we define public spaces, how we deal with locational privacy, and how networks of power are developed today. In Mobile Interfaces in Public Spaces, Adriana de Souza E. Silva and Jordan Frith examine these social and spatial changes by framing the development of location-aware technology within the context of other mobile and portable technologies such as the book, the Walkman, the iPod, and the mobile phone. These technologies work as interfaces to public spaces – that is, as symbolic systems that not only filter information but also reshape communication relationships and the environment in which social interaction takes place. Yet rather than detaching people from their surroundings, the authors suggest that location-aware technologies may ultimately strengthen our connections to locations.}, journal={Mobile Interfaces in Public Spaces: Locational Privacy, Control, and Urban Sociability}, publisher={New York: Routledge}, author={de Souza e Silva, A. and Frith, J.}, year={2012}, pages={1–209} } @article{frith_2012, title={Splintered space: Hybrid spaces and differential mobility}, volume={7}, number={1}, journal={Mobilities}, author={Frith, J.}, year={2012}, pages={131–149} } @misc{frith_2011, title={Personal connections in the digital age}, volume={13}, number={8}, journal={New Media & Society}, author={Frith, J.}, year={2011}, pages={1396–1397} } @article{morain_frith_cummings_berube_2011, title={Review Essay: Understanding Digital Media and Society}, volume={61}, ISSN={["0021-9916"]}, DOI={10.1111/j.1460-2466.2011.01560.x}, abstractNote={Bookstore shelves are filled with works about the digital media revolution, the authors of which claim to have an inside and nuanced understanding of one or more digital media artifacts, such as Facebook or Twitter. The recent proliferation of literature on emerging technologies and changing social behavior makes it difficult to find well-researched and engaging arguments that are relevant to digital media scholars. Fortunately, Polity's Digital Media and Society Series has consistently published one of the strongest collections devoted to digital media studies. The Digital Media and Society Series includes 12 books on diverse topics ranging from the challenges facing the music industry to the explosion of mobile communication. We have chosen to focus on 3 of the 12 books in this review to provide a snapshot of the research you can expect from Polity; each book in the series deserves its own thorough review and we recommend all 12 books in the series for their own respective audiences and purposes. The three we chose capture the breadth and variety of the series as a whole, including a detailed discussion of late capitalist society (The Information Society), an excellent examination of the organizing technology of the Information Age (Search Engine Society), and an analysis of a specific digital media community (YouTube).}, number={3}, journal={JOURNAL OF COMMUNICATION}, author={Morain, Matthew and Frith, Jordan and Cummings, Christopher and Berube, David M.}, year={2011}, month={Jun}, pages={E12–E14} } @article{frith_morain_cummings_berube_2011, title={The shallows: What the Internet is doing to our brains}, volume={61}, ISSN={["0021-9916"]}, DOI={10.1111/j.1460-2466.2010.01535.x}, abstractNote={Journal Article Book Reviews Get access The shallows: What the Internet is doing to our brains Nicholas Carr W.

Our results identify 2 main areas: the control these devices offer over public spaces and the lack of control users have over their location information. This lack of control is often framed as a lack of privacy. We argue that the ability to control and personalize public spaces is not new because previous types of portable media already allowed users to manage interactions with public spaces. However, issues of privacy and control over public spaces are more pronounced with location-aware technologies. Our conclusions suggest that popular press discourses often overlook more complex social issues related to privacy in public spaces. La Privacidad de la Locacion en los Espacios Publicos: Los Discursos de los Medios sobre las Tecnologias Moviles de Deteccion de la Locacion Adriana de Souza e Silva & Jordan Frith Department of Communication, North Carolina State University, Raleigh, NC, USA Resumen Este articulo analiza 4 meses de los articulos populares de la prensa de las mayores publicaciones sobre la deteccion de la locacion de los telefonos moviles. Nuestros resultados identificaron 2 areas principales: el control que estos aparatos ofrecen sobre los espacios publicos y la falta de control que los usuarios tienen sobre la informacion de su locacion. Esta falta de control es a menudo encuadrada como una falta de privacidad. Arguimos que la habilidad de controlar y personalizar los espacios publicos no es algo nuevo porque previos tipos de medios portables ya permitieron a sus usuarios manejar las interacciones con los espacios publicos. No obstante, los asuntos de privacidad y control sobre los espacios publicos son mas pronunciados con las tecnologias de deteccion de locacion. Nuestras conclusiones sugieren que los discursos de la prensa popular a menudo no dejan ver los asuntos sociales mas complejos relacionados con la privacidad en los espacios publicos. L’intimite de localisation dans les espaces publics : discours mediatiques sur les technologies mobiles informees de notre localisation Adriana de Souza e Silva & Jordan Frith Cet article analyse quatre mois d’articles tires de la presse populaire, dans des publications importantes, portant sur les telephones mobiles informes de la localisation de leurs utilisateurs. Nos resultats identifient deux themes principaux : le controle qu’offrent ces appareil sur les espaces publics et le manque de controle des usagers quant a ces informations de localisation. Ce manque de controle est souvent cadre comme etant une absence de vie privee et d’intimite. Nous soutenons que la capacitea controler et a personnaliser les espaces publics n’est pas nouvelle, puisque des types precedents de medias portatifs permettaient deja aux usagers de gerer leurs interactions avec les espaces publics. Cependant, les enjeux de vie privee et de controle sur les espaces publics sont plus marques avec ces technologies informees de la localisation de leurs usagers. Nos conclusions indiquent que les discours dans la presse populaire negligent souvent des enjeux plus complexes lies a la vie privee dans les espaces publics. Lokale Privatheit im offentlichen Raum: Mediendiskurse uber Mobiltechnologien mit Geolokation-Funktion Adriana de Souza e Silva & Jordan Frith Uber einen Zeitraum von vier Monaten analysiert dieser Artikel beliebte Presseartikel bekannter Publikationen zum Thema Mobiltelefone mit Geolokation-Funktion. Unsere Analyse zeigt zwei Hauptergebnisfelder: Zum einen die Kontrolle, die solche Gerate uber den offentlichen Raum bieten, und zum anderen die fehlende Kontrolle, die Nutzer uber ihre Lageinformationen haben. Diese fehlende Kontrolle wird oft als fehlende Privatheit diskutiert. Wir argumentieren, dass die Fahigkeit den offentlichen Raum zu kontrollieren und zu personalisieren nicht neu ist, da auch Vorgangermodelle tragbarer Medien dem Nutzer die Moglichkeit geboten haben, die Interaktionen mit offentlichen Raumen zu managen. Dennoch sind Aspekte von Privatheit und Kontrolle bei Technologien mit Geolokation pravalenter. Wir kommen also zu dem Schluss, dass der aktuelle Pressediskurs die komplexeren sozialen Aspekte zum Thema Privatheit in offentlichen Raumen oft nur unzureichend betrachtet.}, number={4}, journal={Communication, Culture & Critique}, publisher={Oxford University Press (OUP)}, author={de Souza e Silva, A. and Frith, J.}, year={2010}, pages={503–525} } @article{de souza e silva_frith_2010, title={Locative Mobile Social Networks: Mapping Communication and Location in Urban Spaces}, volume={5}, ISSN={["1745-011X"]}, url={http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/17450101.2010.510332}, DOI={10.1080/17450101.2010.510332}, abstractNote={Abstract This study conceptualizes the new spatial logic created by the social use of location aware mobile technologies, analyzing how mobile communities are formed by the mapping of social networks in urban spaces. It explores two main areas with the goal of understanding how locative mobile social networks (LMSNs) challenge the traditional logic of networks. First, it conceptualizes LMSNs by comparing them to (1) traditional transportation and communication networks, and (2) mobile social networks (MSNs). Second, the paper discusses potential social implications of LMSNs, such as privacy, surveillance, and social exclusion.}, number={4}, journal={MOBILITIES}, publisher={Informa UK Limited}, author={de Souza e Silva, Adriana and Frith, Jordan}, year={2010}, pages={485–505} }
