Themes and scope
========

The digital communication evidences, in the last decades, significant 
transformations in the daily life and in the habits of audiences. 
Through this process, the construction of a new ecosystem is observed, 
in which technology becomes invisible, despite its significant 
relevance. However, we cannot say that the devices are at the centre of 
the transformations. The adaptations and reinterpretations of the users 
dialogue permanently with the strategies proposed by the industry within 
the interfaces. As a whole, these changes influence the perception of 
space, time, memory, among other aspects. And, viewed with a historical 
perspective, they also influence culture. On a daily basis, these 
transformations are evident in online social networks, in the 
applications available for mobile communication, in the constant 
narration about life at any time, in the possibility of personalizing 
the contents - some aspects which can be seen interrelated on the screen 
of a smartphone. In that sense, we live in a software culture that, in 
its development, has made such activities more and more friendly. And 
there are many contemporary users who produce and consume in this great 
network, with actions mediated by the sense of place and the stories lived.
This issue, aligned with the Thematic Group 19, Digital Communication, 
Networks and Processes, of the Latin American Association of 
Communication Researchers -ALAIC-, proposes to reconstruct an overview 
of the state of research in new online media and processes, particularly 
with a comparative perspective in the Ibero-American context, from the 
following thematic axes: * Cyberjournalism and cyberculture. * Usability 
/ accessibility. * Information architecture. * Digital transformation of 
organizations. * Cyberculture and youth cultures. * Networks and 
algorithms. * Data journalism. * New informative habits of the audience. 
* Culture of software and applications. * Experimental means. * 
Interactivity and media convergence. * Radio and digital TV. * Digital 
narratives * Aesthetics and digital image. * Communities and virtual 
networks. * Collaboration in the network. * History of the internet.
