“…Podcasting has been discussed in relation to many other audio media. For example, it was regarded to be “closely intertwined” with broadcast radio, sharing techniques and content (Berry, 2016: 17), and similar to digital music in terms of personalization and self-curation (Nyre, 2015). What makes podcasting a distinct form of audio media is the unique set of “practices and cultural meanings that are entirely entwined with the technologies for its distribution, organization, and consumption” (Morris and Patterson, 2015: 221–222).…”

Through a large-scale national survey, this study provided the first comprehensive examination of podcast users in the United States from the perspectives of motivation and usage. It deepened our understanding of this new on-demand audio platform in the context of consumption drivers, behaviors, and competing media options. The results showed that entertainment, information, and audio platform superiority were the most important motivators for podcast consumption. In addition, motives were found to affect listening behaviors, including listening settings, width, depth, and routine of listening, and usage of competing audio media, such as regular radio, online radio, and streaming music. The findings revealed that podcasting is a distinct medium with unique characteristics rather than a mobile, on-demand extension of existing audio platforms like radio. Podcast consumption, especially on today’s complex media platforms, is multidimensional and should be measured from multiple aspects and examined in various settings.

“…As well as radio throughout the years started catering to smaller audiences that wanted to listen to a specific format, so is podcasting accommodating to niche audiences (Berry 2016, 11). Nyre (2015) calls it "the for-anyone-interested structure" (283) and explains that "podcasters can be said to address only those people interested in the topic at hand" (283). However, as podcasting is growing in popularity and development, it is moving into the mainstream market (Bonini 2015, 27).…”

When Podcast Met True Crime

This MA thesis examines the connection between the rise of the podcasting medium and the rise of the true crime genre. The ways in which true crime and podcasting have influenced each other reflect the dynamic relationship between media, genre, technology, and audience behavior, which is ultimately useful in better understanding contemporary American popular culture. The true crime genre helped popularize the podcasting medium, and today, true crime podcasts hold a significant place within popular culture. Together, they went from niche to mainstream, and we might refer to this process as genre-medium coevolution. Throughout this thesis, it will become evident that neither genre nor medium is static, and whereas the two might have benefitted from each other at an early stage of development, they might not continue to.

“…Vi kan derfor argumentere for at vi fremdeles er i en fase av de mobile medienes utvikling der krav til mobilitet og bevegelsesfrihet, kombinert med ønsket om en omsluttende opplevelse, tilsier at lydmediet er det som i mange sammenhenger vil vaere best egnet. Potensialet understrekes også av det faktum at lytting med hodetelefoner, tilkoblet en mobil enhet, allerede er svaert utbredt (Nyre, 2015b).…”

Professor, Institutt for informasjons-og medievitenskap, Universitetet i Bergen lars.nyre@uib.no SAMMENDRAG Artikkelen presenterer en ny lydsjanger, sonisk vekslende virkelighet, med utgangspunkt i det lokative lydmediet «Tilhører». Tilhører er både et lydkunstprosjekt og et forsøk med mikroposisjonering. Tilhører utsetter brukerne for en omsluttende lydopplevelse gjennom støydempende hodetelefoner. Brukerens bevegelser påvirker hvordan lydbildet spilles av og innvirker på hvordan et fortellende forløp utvikler seg og presenteres for hver enkelt bruker. De løsningene som utforskes er fortsatt en marginal medieteknologi. Samtidig kan funksjonene som testes vise seg å bli en komponent i fremtidens radio. Artikkelen beskriver et todelt mediedesign der medieplattformen Tilhører og den spesiallagete lydfortellingen «Jernbanedialoger» er like viktige. Vi presenterer også funn fra en brukerundersøkelse med 42 deltakere. Diskusjonsdelen tar for seg hva vi laert om hvordan en gjennomfører en lydproduksjon for et lokativt medium, samt hva disse erfaringene kan fortelle om potensialet for lokativ radio i fremtiden.Nøkkelord Mediedesign, radio, lydfortellinger, vekslende virkelighet, lokative medier
