“…As Borish et al (2021) discuss, film has a unique ability to "respect, preserve, and reinforce" Indigenous identities, lived experiences, and worldviews through storytelling. At the same time, new strategies are emerging for how to effectively integrate film into qualitative research as a way of enriching data collection (Borish et al 2021;Miller and Allor 2016).…”

The academic field of geography is deeply embedded within capitalist and settler colonial logics and has played a major role in suppressing and concealing Indigenous histories along with rights claims, cultures, and practices. While geography’s origins are deeply problematic, over the past decades, many scholars and practitioners have offered counter theoretical and practical perspectives and approaches. Radical food geographies praxis is one such example that is rooted in engaged and socially relevant theory, practice, and reflection. In this article, we present reflections from our experience with radical food geographies research praxis through a collaborative food sovereignty, action-oriented project co-developed and co-led by two settler academics, a documentary filmmaker, and the Chief of Batchewana First Nation. From 2018-2022, we embarked on an effort to share stories of Batchewana First Nation’s historical and current fishing practices, culture, and governance through the co-creation of a feature length documentary film titled, Lake Superior Our Helper: Stories from Batchewanaung Anishinabek Fisheries (https://www.batchewanaungfish.ca). To write this paper, we engaged in a process of collective autoethnography that involved documenting our individual reflections on the project and then bringing these perspectives into dialogue. Emerging from this process, we share our insights for an engaged research praxis, focusing on meaningful and authentic relationships and partnership building, participatory film as a tool for collaborative research, and radical food geographies. We present these insights with the aim of improving our own individual and collaborative practice and to share our learnings with other scholars, activists, and community practitioners engaged in similar partnership-based and praxis-oriented geographic research.

“…And thirdly, projects that work with different categories of users: active participants, sphere of influence and general public. In all three scenarios, there can be strategies or forms of both co-creation (Alberich-Pascual and Gómez-Pérez, 2016;Miller and Allor 2016) and co-design (Green et al 2017) or both at the same time (Jenkins and Carpentier 2013;Nash 2014;Rose 2011).…”

The series "Studies in Big Data" (SBD) publishes new developments and advances in the various areas of Big Data-quickly and with a high quality. The intent is to cover the theory, research, development, and applications of Big Data, as embedded in the fields of engineering, computer science, physics, economics and life sciences. The books of the series refer to the analysis and understanding of large, complex, and/or distributed data sets generated from recent digital sources coming from sensors or other physical instruments as well as simulations, crowd sourcing, social networks or other internet transactions, such as emails or video click streams and other. The series contains monographs, lecture notes and edited volumes in Big Data spanning the areas of computational intelligence including neural networks, evolutionary computation, soft computing, fuzzy systems, as well as artificial intelligence, data mining, modern statistics and Operations research, as well as self-organizing systems. Of particular value to both the contributors and the readership are the short publication timeframe and the world-wide distribution, which enable both wide and rapid dissemination of research output.

“…Another of the fundamental qualities of the interactive documentary is the lengths it goes to involve the participants in it and its efforts to ensure a greater degree of audience engagement than one would expect in a traditional documentary. In a number of projects, these objectives have been pursued using strategies of co-creation (Miller & Allor, 2016) as well as co-design (Green et al, 2017), which means participation is not necessarily limited to content creation, but it can also permeate the whole process of shaping the interactive documentary.…”

The digital media have undergone an unprecedented transformation in recent years by exploiting the combined communicative potential of interaction and visualisation, generating, in this way, new narrative forms and journalistic stories. But this is not something that can be analysed in isolation. Understanding the digital media requires addressing the study of interactive texts and the platforms of the digital ecosystem from different perspectives.The digital media today have highly permeable boundaries, the guidelines that define them being subject to constant modification: their texts are dynamic and constantly changing, their systems operate, thanks to artificial intelligence, as just another actor that analyses, collects and manages information. The space separating senders and receivers of messages has become fuzzy and interwoven. For this reason, the study of digital journalism has to assume this unremitting transformation as simply one more element in the debate about the media, and accept it as a characteristic of the digital culture that defines the field of communication. Resumen En los últimos años los medios digitales han vivido una transformación sin precedentes al vincular el potencial comunicativo de la interacción y la visualización. Se han generado, con ello, nuevas formas narrativas y relatos periodísticos. Pero no se trata de un aspecto que pueda analizarse de forma aislada. La comprensión del medio digital exige abordar el estudio de los textos interactivos, el medio digital y su ecosistema desde distintas perspectivas.El medio digital muestra una gran permeabilidad en sus fronteras, modifica constantemente las pautas que lo definen: los textos resultan dinámicos y mutables, los sistemas actúan, por medio de la inteligencia artificial, como un actor más que analiza, recoge y gestiona información. El espacio entre emisores y receptores en muchas ocasiones se entremezcla. Es por ello que la investigación del periodismo digital asume la transformación constante como un elemento más de debate sobre los medios, y la acepta como una característica de la cultura digital que define el ámbito de la comunicación.
