Audiencing by Dr A.Claudius

People talk a lot about The #Audience’ what ‘The Audience’ is or wants but few talk about what it means to audience or have a simple way to describe what we are doing. Until now. A new book: #Audiencing - A Guide to Four Audiencing Types in Everyday Life - and Why this Matters.

@Claudiashein Crowds have always been divisive - they have the ability to rouse great joy & hope yet that same tribalism, that excludes others, can instill fury. Why? It’s not logic that binds the crowd but feelings – so watching them be moved also moves us as we watch, in v. different ways.

Con una hermosa sencillez BTS saludó a su “A.R.M.Y” y a cerca de 50 mil personas que se congregaron en el zócalo para saludarles. Me da mucha alegría haber podido darles este momento de júbilo. El grupo transmite en sus canciones mensajes positivos que fomentan una cultura de paz e inclusión.

@myyouwithjk They are audiencing the audience - fulfilling a very human desire to be seen.

their faces seeing the crowd😭

@voixdefleur The desire to audience is motivated by feeling, and produces feeling. We watch when we are moved, and we can be moved as we watch. Like now.

Mexican ARMY Hooligan fanchant. Absolute insanity! WOW! 💜🇲🇽

@LabyrinthCoder Thank you!

@AudiencingBook Shoot me a dm if you want more content for your next book.

Most people think they’re just “the audience.” They’re not. They’re doing audiencing every day & in 4 distinct ways. It shapes how you: – watch sport – scroll online – experience art – understand yourself The awesome part? Once you know it, you see it everywhere.

@LabyrinthCoder @kumxem Yes, but it's the potential for public engagement that assists you to express yourself, otherwise why not simply have a private journal? Yet this is common, as holding potential others in mind is a powerful & often necessary part of being expressive, in fact of being human.

@kumxem Because it's like my public journal with timestamps for proof. I don't need engagement to express myself.

Why do you keep posting on 𝕏 when you get no engagement?

@kumxem Nearly everyone on X needs an audience. We're hungry for an audience: people we don’t know, people we know, or posting for ourselves – anticipating an audience who has not yet seen us. The rest of us just love to audience — applauding with little hearts & cheering with comments.

@Be_Believing This is a brilliant visual example of how parents do a huge amount of emotional work attending their child's event, perhaps more than any other audience type. Why? Because you are the known or intimate audience, meaning "you are not just any audience — you are their audience."

This is being a parent ..

@netflixsports Tell me, what do you think this obsession with audiencing the audience is all about? Has it become more important than the game? Or part of the entertainment?

This dad at the Red Sox game went into full dad mode — managing it from both sides after little bro threw away the foul ball 😂 Big bro was sick 😭

“Audience intelligence is the new literacy." Quote from my book called ‘Audiencing- a guide to four audiencing types in everyday life and why this matters’.

@Solanaenie If so, then audience intelligence is the new literacy.

Destruir la escritura es un intento de aniquilar el pensamiento. Primero te acostumbraron a mirar videos cortos y afectaron tu capacidad de concentración, ahora te ponen una máquina en tu celular que escriba por vos. Cuánto más idiota la población, mejor pueden dominarla.

The incredible jazz pianist Bill Evans understood the nature of himself as his first audience. #music #KnowThyself #performance #audience

It's become abundantly clear that we've entered the Age of the Audience. Many of us who never thought much about audiences before social media now find we shape our lives as content to share. For some, it’s enjoyable, for others to be audienced all the time, is oppressive. Agree?

¿Por qué la generación Z no baila en las discotecas? Parte de mi trabajo combina marketing con psicología del consumo y parte de mis clientes son «discotecas», clubs o como se llamen. Y es curioso ver en una discoteca que nadie baila. Todos hacen grupos, toman, ven sus móviles y a veces hablan. La razón es simple. Todos graban todo y nadie quiere aparecer en el siguiente vídeo o meme que se burla de cómo baila ni con quién baila. Así que tenemos a toda una generación que no se divierte bailando sino grabando.

@kaithrine7 Fans, audiences, crowds - we collaborate in whatever way we want.

Bro came to watch a game and ended up becoming the game 💀😭

Do I know you? Knowing who is observing you, or who you are observing shapes what you do, think, feel and how you respond.

@JasonTezos The fascinating thing is that most of us are anonymous for & to each other. A loved yet personally unknown audience.

@AudiencingBook Interesting thought 🤔

X becomes more fun as your account begins to grow. I’m sure everyone with a few thousand followers remembers how difficult it was when they were just starting out. If you see someone with less than 100 followers and they post something interesting, please repost it. I’m sure they would appreciate it very much 😊

And which audience are they being?

What do a stand-up comic, a political journalist, a UX designer, and a sports trainer have in common? They all shape experiences for audiences. But which audiences are they thinking about?

@euvitin0 This is the commodification of attention gone wild.

Foi impossível não ficar obcecado depois de entender a genialidade do que ela estava fazendo.
