Participatory Media and discourses of quality (Nico Carpentier)
The participatory process and its outcomes are sometimes linked to amateurism and the lack of quality. Often, professional media production, aesthetic and narrative quality standards still prevail. This presentation starts with a reception analysis of YouTube-like video clips, to show how audience members discredit these (indeed poorly-made) short films on the basis of mainstream media quality standards. In a second part, two alternative models for quality (within participatory media) are developed. First, democratic quality emphases the importance of the participatory-democratic process as a criterion for quality. Second, negotiated quality looks at the concept of quality itself, detaching it from a canon-based definition. The process of establishing what quality is seen as contextualised dialogue and an intrinsic part of the participatory-democratic process.
