Descriptif

This seminar will explore the temporal aspects of online diffusion dynamics with a strongly interdisciplinary approach and a specific focus on YouTube.

First, in a Media Studies context, we discuss the importance of investigating content consumption rhythms, arguing that, in the same way as other information disorders, certain attention regimes can restrain the development of a healthy public debate. We provide a conceptualization for over accelerated attention regimes in which few contents get most of the collective attention but are incapable of sustaining it for long, giving rise to ephemeral and fragmented public debates. This conceptualization will be followed by empirical study of attention dynamics online. In particular, we will focus on a large YouTube dataset containing the evolution of views-count for 1400 channels representative of the French media sphere. We propose a Bass model to explain views-count evolutions and investigate the role that imitation and innovation mechanisms play in shaping the diffusion on YouTube. We hence investigate which of this components could be responsible of the rise of over-accelerated and over-concentrated attention rhythms.
