The newfound independence and autonomy afforded by online platforms for content publication and networking offer new capacities to support creative work. Conversely, these same resources present challenges, and the accounts of workers in these industries platforms illustrate considerable unforeseen impacts on creative industries, some echoing systemic inequalities seen in offline spaces, others posing barriers unique to platform infrastructures. I intend to map the collaborative networks of two communities of independent writers to understand how they distribute labor and consider how understanding ties and platform-usage within these networks might render invisible labor and systems visible.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EWhile for some workers, online platforms may function as one of many tools used to produce, publish, or promote their work, for others, they may also serve as the primary or sole intermediary for creative work. These differences in platform reliance may significantly impact experiences of autonomy and the role precarity of platform-based work, as well as the connections formed in work supported by or reliant on online platforms for the creation, publication, and marketing of their work.\u0026nbsp; This work will contribute to existing research on role-specific experiences of platform-mediated labor, particularly across levels of platform mediation. It will also examine how community sense-making of platforms and algorithms for content promotion and moderation might help bridge knowledge gaps and support codesign.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThanks,\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EMapping Platform-Mediated Authorship\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Mapping Platform-Mediated Authorship"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2025-01-16 20:49:48","changed_gmt":"2025-01-16 20:49:48","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2025-01-23T15:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2025-01-23T17:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2025-01-23T17:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2025-01-23 20:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2025-01-23 22:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2025-01-23 22:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"TSRB 226","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"102851","name":"Phd proposal"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
