Internet Culture as a Nomadic model: representation of the Unconscious
// Man and Culture.
2024. № 4.
P. 111-123.
DOI: 10.25136/2409-8744.2024.4.71433 EDN: VBUWYO URL: https://en.nbpublish.com/library_read_article.php?id=71433
Abstract:
The article examines the issue of the formation of a new reality through Internet culture. The subject of this work is the nomadic model of the World Wide Web. The object is modern news programs presented on the Internet. The purpose of the study is to identify patterns that influence the formation of a new genre of media as a way of communication in the Internet environment. The peculiarity of the Internet device allows us to develop the concept of a viewer-author due to a high level of interactivity. The presence of a multitude of information expressed through an uncontrolled nomadic model creates an atmosphere of a new "reality" based on false freedom and pseudo-trust. In addition, the creation of a "virtual double" by the viewer contributes to the manifestation of hidden emotions and antisocial behaviors as a manifestation of the archetype "Shadow" (K. Jung). The article puts forward a hypothesis: the peculiarity of the Internet networks, expressed through the nomadic model, creates a platform for the realization of the unconscious viewer. This work is based on the nomadic model of culture developed by philosopher J. Deleuze and psychiatrist F. Guattari. Through the concept of psychoanalysis by K. Jung and J. Lacan examines the concept of the unconscious, as well as the "virtual reality" of S. Zizek, necessary for the most complete analysis of the transmission of information through Internet genres. The relevance of the research is emphasized by the need to comprehend the processes of constructing reality in the Internet network, through new information genres, in conditions of high interactivity. The novelty of the work lies in a new theoretical understanding of the experience of receiving and transmitting information via the Internet, one of the main participants of which is the viewer himself. The analysis of information production methods becomes especially necessary in conditions of reduced data moderation, which leads to the spread of false information in modern society. The author's special contribution to the research of the topic consists in the analysis of information and analytical programs, in particular "Caution: News", presented on the Internet platform. The main conclusion of the conducted research is the confirmation of the scientific hypothesis: the Internet environment is a nomadic model, which is a platform for the realization of the unconscious viewer.

Emotional roles of modern media culture
// Man and Culture.
2024. № 4.
P. 124-131.
DOI: 10.25136/2409-8744.2024.4.43793 EDN: VDCCNO URL: https://en.nbpublish.com/library_read_article.php?id=43793
Abstract:
The article examines the features that characterize media culture in recent decades: emotionality, anonymity, the need for "detente" and compassion. It is proved that the mechanisms of the media environment determine the popularization and dramatization of the information flow. Using the example of the role of hayter, it is shown how the conflict between taboo emotion and the need to speak out leads to socially disapproved behavior; the role of the troll is also actualized in a socio-psychological context. The article considers the emotionality of modern media culture as its integral component. Its products are a large number of neologisms–memes related to emotions, degrading forums and the fight against offensive content from corporations. Anonymity is considered as a possible reason for the decrease in empathy, dehumanization and deindividualization of the user. It is the popularity of this opportunity in the last decade that allows us to talk about a new social demand for security and freedom of expression; the reverse side of the latter is harassment, offensive statements and victims of Internet hatred among marginalized groups of the population. Using Ten van Dyck's discursive analysis of the mass media, we show that a low threshold for entering the media space does not guarantee the undermining of the status quo at all: on the contrary, the low importance of the cognitive element popularizes rumors and conspiracy theories, often confirming arguments of intolerance and xenophobia.

The Role of the "Day of Russian Culture" in Constructing Russian Emigration Identity of the "First Wave".
// Man and Culture.

P. 91-101.
DOI: 10.25136/2409-8744.2023.2.40016 EDN: UDQZWZ URL: https://en.nbpublish.com/library_read_article.php?id=40016
Abstract:
Russian Culture Day, celebrated in most of the countries of Russian emigration on the birthday of Alexander Pushkin, is the subject of the study. In the article, this celebration is considered not as a narrowly cultural event, but as a national holiday, that is, an event whose value is recognized by all members of the nation who, as spectators or participants, are involved in the celebrations. Special attention is paid to three key functions of the holiday: uniting, protecting young people from denationalization and maintaining a sense of collective dignity. Other functions are also considered, the most obvious of which are entertainment and educational, but these three influenced the formation of a special emigrant identity. It is demonstrated that despite the remaining differences, different political forces took part in the preparation and holding of the holiday. At the same time, the view of the historical significance of Russian culture and the role of Pushkin could differ, but the controversy remained within the framework of the holiday, which served as a platform for communication. Special attention is paid to the press and its influence on the formation and development of the Day of Russian Culture. The text notes that the Day of Russian Culture was a phenomenon of "white emigration", expressing its values and aspirations. This celebration existed and consolidated the "white" emigrant mythology, one of the key characteristics of which was the belief in a speedy return to their homeland, "liberated" from the Communists. The victory in the Second World War of the Soviet Union, led to the disappointment of emigrants in this idea. Also at the end of the 40s, the "second wave" got into emigration, which was very different in its abilities from its predecessors. These factors predetermined the fading and disappearance of such an important symbol of "white emigration" as the Day of Russian Culture.

Abstract:
The subject of this research is the images of game and gamers. In the space of literary work, they are arrayed in metaphorical and often demonic raiment, receiving moral-ethical interpretation in one or another way. The problem of game and gamer in criticism was regarded by Y. Mann (“On the Concept of Game as a Literary Image”), V. V. Vinogradov (“Style of the Queen of Spades”), E. Dobin (“Ace and Queen”, A. Pushkin’s “The Queen of Spades”), R. Caillois (“Games and People”), British writer and researcher of online games R, Bartle, American scientist Nick Yee, and many others. However, juxtaposition of literature sources on the topic to the research in the field of computer games is conducted for the first time. The scientific novelty consists in the comprehensive examination of the psychological game of the gamer based on the material of Russian literature (A. S. Pushkin “The Queen of Spades”, V. V. Nabokov The Luzhin Defense”) , as well as the modern computer games practice, in which psychological type of the gamer found its realization and development in accordance with genre diversity. Even the Russian classical literature depict game as an autonomous space that encompasses the gamer, and often has devastating effect on their personality. The author also observes an important characterological trait of the gamer: the conceptual, “literal” perception of the world, which is based on the reception of visual images of the world against verbal. Therefore, the Russian literature alongside the research practice of modern videogames from different angles approach examination of the images of “game and gamer”, cognize the factors and consequences of the problems that emerge in this object field, as well as seek for their solution. The data acquired in the course of the conducted comparative analysis is mutually enriching.
