Into the Twittersphere

As society continues to usher into and embrace the cyber and digital age that has come to define the past decade, it is no surprise that social media dominates not only our mobile and handheld devices, but also the real world political landscape. My respective generation of millennials and post-millennials has grown up with and transitioned from MySpace to Facebook to Tumblr to Twitter to Instagram to Snapchat and all of which amongst many other platforms have raised the scale, brought upon new ways of expression and posting, and influenced significant events and current reality. Out of all these forms of social media, Twitter has probably evolved the most in terms of how users first used the site and application versus how they use it today. As an avid iPhone user and social media connoisseur, I have plenty of experience with Twitter and the aforementioned apps to which I gained throughout my adolescence. Given that I joined Twitter in 2012, I have witnessed several shifts in the blue bird’s dynamic as content is constantly changing and being generated. In this following piece, I will examine the Twitter of the past and the Twitter of now and look in between the years of how it has impacted consumption of entertainment, news, and politics, and overall, society and the world.

Before diving into the evolution of Twitter, it is especially important to look at its origins and popularization. Amanda MacArthur details the history of Twitter in her article “The Real History of Twitter, In Brief”, in which she recounts how the social media site first began as a side project for co-founder Jack Dorsey in the year 2006 (MacArthur 1). Dorsey even intended for Twitter, or “twttr” (what it was commonly referred to in its early days), to be an SMS-based communications platform, so basically a different way of texting friends (MacArthur 1). The concept indeed started off as such until the idea then developed and branched out into a social network as several users hopped aboard the Twitter train, or bird for that matter. As Twitter experienced this explosive growth, it was interesting for the programming team to see how much people were producing with a 140 character limit (now 280 characters). What once started as a vision for a new method of messaging progressed into a user base of millions and an innovation of replies, mentions, @ symbols, retweets, and the famous hashtags. Twitter became its own social media network site, or SNS, and fits all the characteristics that Danah M. Boyd described in “Social Network Sites: Definition, History, and Scholarship”. Boyd defines the term SNS as a “web-based service that allows individuals to (1) construct a public or semi-public proﬁle within a bounded system, (2) articulate a list of other users with whom they share a connection, and (3) view and traverse their list of connections and those made by others within the system” (Boyd 211). That certainly sounds like Twitter as the site progresses even further in developing along with its user base and audience.

Based on my personal experience of using Twitter ever since 2012, I have kept up with and followed content that has made me laugh, made me smile, made me sad, made me astonished, and made me angry. Through this spectrum of Twitter consisting of so many users of different social and ethical backgrounds, it is arguably poetic that the platform brings people together just as much as it tears people apart. For instance, in “The Power and Political Economy of Social Media”, Christian Fuchs claims a limit on social media in respect to its participation as an ideology. Fuchs argues against social media as participatory as he feels that people are using media to form opinions on entertainment based topics instead of political topics to which he finds more important (Fuchs 98). In many cases Fuch’s statements holds true throughout Twitter’s existence, but I do believe the site has raised more political concerns in the past two years. Yes, Fuchs even specifies the limits of Twitter in regard to how “Obama has a very large number of followers [while] the number is much lower for representatives of alternative politics” (Fuchs 102), but it is imperative to note that despite only being written in 2014, the political landscape has changed so much in heavy part to Donald Trump. Exclude Trump’s presidency and love for tweeting, and there are still many others cases and situations in which Twitter has went beyond talking about the hottest celebrity scandals and stories and instead more about world politics and national crises and issues. Unlike other SNS counterparts such as Facebook, Twitter tends to not get soaked with the whole idea of iCapitalism, or commodification of information, a concept described by Alistair Duff in “Rating the revolution: Silicon Valley in Normative Perspective”. I strongly believe that the Twittersphere primarily revolves around information being produced and shared for that simple matter as it reflects the information society established by Silicon Valley (Duff 1609). However, with all this content and with every popular trend and network of countless users, there exists both goods and bads.

I stand by the perspective to which Twitter has changed the world, but the platform essentially has changed lives for not just the better, but also for the worst. In her article for The Guardian, Elena Cresci reviews ways in which Twitter has extended its influence to its user base beyond the 140/280 characters. Cresci highlights how the social network media site has helped, but also hurt businesses, changed the way we consume news, but what also makes news, made stars out of politicians and important figures but also out of random teenagers and animals, and brought about the rise of hashtag activism that has widely influenced campaigns and movements (Cresci 1). Many of these negative points draw back to Fuch’s claim that social media is only concerned with entertainment, but how can you blame the user base for expressing what they want to see and generate? To help elaborate, in “Active Audiences and the Construction of Meaning”, David Crouteau and William Hoynes discuss roles of the active audience and how they interpret media. This relates to Twitter users in the sense that they are similar to active audiences that engage in media socially (Crouteau and Hoynes 263) and for the simple fact that media is pleasurable and entertaining (Crouteau and Hoynes 287). They also briefly mention how audiences directly share similarities and differences to “users” as traditional media has transitioned into new forms of media (Crouteau and Hoynes 292). Altogether, this shows that those active in the Twitterverse are partaking on the platform on their own regard. The positives generally outweigh the negatives as the modern sphere of Twitter continues to speak on real issues and advocate for change in a world with lingering problems whilst maintaining a sanctuary for memes and popular culture.

Overall, Twitter has unleashed a wave of users that continue to express an ideology that grabs the attention of other users and puts them in this cycle of tweeting towards and against a dynamic and landscape of entertainment and politics. In that regard, it leaves me to wonder what Twitter will evolve and progress into next while society and mass media proceed to intertwine. After all, the Twittersphere was only intended to be another texting service just a little over a decade ago.

Media Art Complement

The following collage I photographed and put together represents how Twitter is capable of creating viral sensations and stars. Pictured below is Joshua Malilay, a close friend of mine, who has a passion and incredible talent for music. In the summer of 2016, he tweeted a song cover video of “I Want To Be Your Lady” by INOJ. Given that the song was so popular at the time amongst Twitter and other social media users and because of how gifted Josh’s voice is, his tweet blew up, he gained hundreds of followers, and he instantly became - as many would say - Twitter famous. This example of my good friend exploding onto the scene demonstrates the constant interest in entertainment of Twitter, how it has evolved since its conception, and significantly how this SNS and media form can positively impact its users as Josh has garnered much attention while he looks to pursue music.

Quick guide to (my) alien!Fitz’s homes

Sact’nold - Star Wars AU - Island/single equatorial continent world of moderate climate in the “suburbs” of the galaxy. Accents range from David Tennant, Peter Capaldi, Billy Boyd, Karen Gillan, and of course, Iain de Caestecker. Inhabitants slightly longer-lived than those of Naboo/Coruscant/Tattooine (Fitz is two years older than Anakin Skywalker, but looks no older than 55-60 during The Force Awakens/Last Jedi era; see David Warner in Babylon 5) but appear to be the same species with the same proportion of Force-sensitive individuals and same biology. A minor species in the galactic scheme of things, they’re either extremely vocal or extremely passive in their politics, and after Palpatine was elevated to Emperor, their senators were rebuked by the people, and Sact’nold has always been an ally of the Resistance...off-book. Ask them and they’ll say they’re behind the Empire or First Order, while “disgraced” members of the political and business scenes provide everything from technology to medical aid to entire trained squads to help regain their independence.

ˈKl̪ˠas̪əxu - Farscape AU - A world that has been recovering from an ecological disaster for long enough that its inhabitants have evolved to reproduce asexually, but still have vestigial if reduced sex organs. Two large moons, resulting in nights no darker than Maveth. Still prone to extremes of weather, but the inhabitants have largely adapted. Currently the world has many city-islands with space ports, as the people are very good at finding solutions to mechanical problems. Long prehensile tails, more infrared and ultraviolet sensitivity than humans, six digits on hands and feet, average height well above six feet tall for males and females. (Fitz is significantly short.) Low tolerance for spicy food, poor night vision. Preference for kilts. Sexual activity is considered as taboo as open furries. Can take genetic donations from a mate of any species to graft into the genome of the child to fight disease or just to express romantic love, but extreme species combinations do not survive very well. (A Luxan or Sebacean would be ideal although sterile if done sloppily, but a Delvan has too incompatible biology.) Because of their genetic engineering skills, their help is often sought by couples having problems conceiving as often as their technological brilliance is. Their whiskey is three times the strength of Earth’s, due to the hardy conditions in which the grain grows, making it very desirable as well.

Dubnos - Boshtok AU - Technically a subspecies of humans living on an Earth-sized moon of what we presently call Planet X. Long-extinct insectoids abducted Celtic villagers to use as terraforming slaves two millennia ago, but the overlords died out and the Dubnosians, who had been trained as maintenance workers as well as their intended duties, overtook the technology and have had spaceflight for centuries. Rocky world with ice flow tectonics (similar to a more stable Enceladus). Very little light reaches the surface—less than a hundredth of a lumen at this point of its orbit—so the inhabitants survive with fusion-powered sunlight lamps and subterranean artificial weather. Average Dubnosian male height is 5’3”-5’5”, having diminished due to the survival requirements. (Boshtok/Fitz is quite tall.) Dubnos has a very dystopian urban street type culture, divided into family groups of clans that more resemble gangs than anything else, and vigilante justice is not uncommon, although there are some universal laws they stick to. Clan Fitz is one of the strongest (read: most brutal) thanks to Alistair and his father establishing a large territory and paying the enforcers well. Leopold didn’t want to be a part of it, and in fact, killed Alistair as a teen during an argument over it, and despite his place as laird, left, wrapping a heart of mercy and kindness in the trappings of a marauder, thinking it was the only way to survive the universe. After all, on Dubnos, the clan with the most resources gets to do what it wants, and you don’t get food, water, lamps, or shelter by asking nicely.
