Le newsscape terminal et ses imaginaires (O "newsscape" terminal e seus imaginários)

2018 
The remediation motion ensured by media from the outset was boosted by the emergence of the World Wide Web. In the same way that GoogleMaps covered the space of geographical territories, the cloak of the Internet is increasingly cannibalizing social discourse. Real time coverage, interactivity, and digitalization encourage us to rethink the statuses of media, journalists and information, the practice of which has become, in a sense, an open and shared operation. In the Background of the flow of data and news, journalists remain the only ones capable of constructing a narrative (Manovich) within the magma of information available. A narrative or rather a discourse that algorithms are unable to produce because current events cannot be reduced to a series of data transmitted mechanically through expected scripts; Events are literally "spoken" regardless of the story-telling techniques used to mediate them. That is why the journalistic narrative is indispensable because it escorts our democracies and help make sense of our realities. A sense that contrasts with stark facts, the concretion of pure data or pure significant deprived of signifier. It is thus urgent to consider the treatment of current events as a global conversation that helps build a common world.
