WOODRUFF cast | The Art and Meaning of Internet Memes with Aidan Walker
(2025)
keywords:
Frederick Woodruff
Video
Language(s): English
ART REVEALS AND EXPLAINS more than historical text. Art can also be prophetic, telegraphing trends and nascent ideologies before they are articulated in the culture. Art is the ultimate arbitrator of a multi-dimensional chronology of life on our planet.
With that idea in mind, I wanted to discuss the phenomenon of internet memes with Aidan Walker
, the author of the How to Do Things With Memes newsletter of Substack—and my guest today on the WOODRUFF cast.
It’s easy to dismiss memes as cyber effluvia, but as Aiden explains in our discussion, they represent more than we imagine.

Panel discussion
The hype surrounding digital technologies in education has now partly been replaced with a opposite tendency where schools worldwide are going back to printed books and banning mobile phones from the classroom. At the same time, digital technologies are deeply embedded in educational practices and the global ed-tech industry is thriving. In this panel, four distinguished researchers from the field of media and education give their perspectives on this development:
· Neil Selwyn, Professor in the Faculty of Education (Monash University, Australia)
· Petar Jandrić, Professor of Information Science (Zagreb University of Applied Science, Croatia)
· Felicitas Macgilchrist, Professor of Digital Education and Schooling (Carl von Ossietzky Universität Oldenburg, Germany)
· Sarah Hayes, Professor of Education and Research Lead (Bath Spa University, UK)
New Books in Critical Theory podcast | Feminist Fandom: Media Fandom, Digital Feminisms, and Tumblr
(2025)

Dave O'Brien
Podcast
Language(s): English
What is the connection between fan culture and feminism? In Media Fandom, Digital Feminisms, and Tumblr (Bloomsbury, 2023), Briony Hannell, a lecturer in sociology at the University of Manchester, explores the intersection of fandom, in a variety of forms, and feminist discourses on social media. Using an in-depth case study of Tumblr, the book charts the creation of a community of feminist fans, showing how the sense of being a feminist and belonging to a digital community are created and maintained online. The analysis also reflects on how this community includes and excludes particular social groups, showing the potential and the limits of digital spaces for feminist ideas and activities. A vital intervention at a moment where social media spaces are being transformed in various ways, the book is essential reading for anyone interested in understanding the contemporary digital world.

The internet is broken—but it doesn’t have to be. If you’re concerned about how surveillance, online advertising, and automated content moderation are hurting us online and offline, the Electronic Frontier Foundation’s How to Fix the Internet podcast offers a better way forward. In this episode: From Napster to YouTube, some of the most important and controversial uses of the internet have been about building community: connecting people all over the world who share similar interests, tastes, views, and concerns. Big corporations try to co-opt and control these communities, and politicians often promote scary narratives about technology’s dangerous influences, but users have pushed back against monopoly and rhetoric to find new ways to connect with each other.

Diasporas Speaking podcast: Heteronationalism and Identity | Women and LGBT+ communities navigating Albanian Digital Spaces
(2024)
keywords:
Rina Limoni
Podcast
Language(s): English
A trilingual and critical diaspora podcast series chronicling Kosovar, Albanian and Balkan diaspora histories. This episode: Contemporary Albanian identities in both digital and offline spaces are deeply influenced by legacies of war, colonialism, tradition, and modernity. Over the past decade, Albanian social media has increasingly become a platform where heteronormative norms are performed, casting Albanian identity through a heteronationalist lens focused on national heroes and the flag.
This idealisation of heteronormative lifestyles reinforces binary notions of gender and sexuality, with digital hetero-activists defending a narrow vision of Albanian identity.
An approach that often leads to online hate and violence against marginalised communities and anyone who challenges these norms.
However, digital spaces also serve as empowering sites for LGBT + and feminist groups to cultivate their own politics and narratives.
These spaces underscore the importance of celebrating LGBT+ and women's histories beyond the constraints of heteronormativity and patriarchy.
In this episode, we will speak to Kairo Urovi, Fjolla and Arber Qerka-Gashi about their work, activism and experiences -- to explore how heteronormativity and nationalism intersect in Kosovar-Albanian social media and digital spaces.

This resource aims to provide schools, teachers and
educators with guidance on how to address the impact
of these online masculinity influencers on young people,
particularly teenage boys (aged 13-18), via educational
interventions and initiatives, which include having critical
discussions with them about this topic. Although this
information may not be directly actionable for parents
considering one-on-one discussions about this topic
with their child, the overall guidance may still be helpful
for those preparing for such discussions. Critically,
the guidance outlined in this resource recognises
that the harmful ideologies, attitudes and behaviours
promoted by online masculinity influencers are part
of a broader network or ‘ecosystem’ of spaces in our
society and culture that have historically maintained and
reproduced gendered power dynamics and inequalities
(see figure 14). In other words, they are not online only
phenomena, but are rather current manifestations
of these gendered dynamics and inequalities, which change over time. Therefore, discussions about specific
online masculinity influencers in this resource should
be taken as a proxy for similar content that may arise
in our society and culture in the future. Moreover,
this resource cautions against attributing the harms
associated with online masculinity influencers solely
to digital technologies and social media in discussions
with young people about this topic. Instead, it advocates
a balanced approach to these discussions, which
acknowledges the potential harms and positive benefits
of social media in ways that aim to support young
people in safely navigating these spaces.
This guidance comprises
three main sections:
• First, it provides introductory information about
online masculinity influencers who promote harmful
ideologies, attitudes and behaviours, the ‘ecosystem’
that underpins and supports them and the impact
they are having on children and young people from
all gendered backgrounds, including teenage boys,
which is based on secondary research.
• Second, it identifies the implications this research
has for understanding and responding to the impact
these online masculinity influencers are having on
children and young people, particularly teenage
boys, via educational interventions.
• Third, it presents practical guidance to schools,
teachers and educators on how to facilitate critical
discussions about online masculinity influencers
with teenage boys, which may also be helpful for
parents/guardians who are preparing to have such
discussions with their child/children. Guidelines
on how schools can build a culture that promotes
healthy, respectful and equitable online and offline
relationships, which challenge and change the
harmful cultures that underpin and support online
masculinity influencers, are also explored.

The opportunities afforded by the Internet greatly overshadow the challenges. While not forgetting this, we can nevertheless still address some of the problems that arise. Hate speech online is one such problem. But what exactly is hate speech online, and how can we deal with it effectively?As with freedom of expression, on- or offline, UNESCO defends the position that the free flow of information should always be the norm. Counter-speech is generally preferable to suppression of speech. And any response that limits speech needs to be very carefully weighed to ensure that this remains wholly exceptional, and that legitimate robust debate is not curtailed.
