Digital Media Practices in Households: Kinship Through Data

By Kana Ohashi, Jolynna Sinanan, PROF. Larissa Hjorth, et al.

How are intergenerational relationships playing out in and through the digital rhythms of the household? Through extensive fieldwork in Tokyo, Shanghai and Melbourne, this book ethnographically explores how households are being understood, articulated and defined by digital media practices. It investigates the rise of self-tracking, quantified self and informal practices of care at distance as part of contemporary household dynamics.
