New publication: Visual Chitchat
21.11.2012
Mikko Villi, who works as a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Communication has published an article on visual interpersonal communication in the journal Interactions: Studies in Communication & Culture (2012, volume 3, number 1).
In his article ”Visual Chitchat: The Use of Camera Phones in Visual Interpersonal Communication”, Mikko examines how the practices of mobile phone communication influence the sharing of camera phone photographs. When using camera phones in interpersonal communication, photographs can now function as communicative objects through which people engage with each other synchronously, performing ‘visual chitchat’ or ‘visual small-talk’.
