This study analysed news stories from the newspaper Folha de S.Paulo in three time periods during the first year of the pandemic in Brazil. Through content analysis, in the context of a theoretical framework that includes elements of public communication of science, community health and critical epidemiology, we sought to identify trends and changes in the topics reported and concluded that there is a change of focus with the evolution of the pandemic and limitations are observed to address scientific issues.

Through discourse analysis, the human-technology relationship in the Marvel Cinematic Universe is explored and the construction of a scenario based on apparently rational rules is discovered, where science, magic and mythology seem to be the same thing. The technology is presented as an invasion to the human, who is forced to adapt to understand the technology that invaded him. Finally, when the human learns not to question the invasion and to use technology to protect and improve himself, the new technology (previously an invader) and the human, integrate until they merge.

The press plays a key role in the media communication of the Covid-19 pandemic. Based on this premise, this study has analyzed a sample of texts on Covid-19 published in "Folha de S.Paulo" and "The New York Times" in the first half of the pandemic in order to categorize the information published in six groups. We found that one in ten contents dealt with "Science and new researches", the same proportion of content covering "Political crisis”. The results show that reporting on science and on crises in the Brazilian and U.S. managements of the pandemic (including misinformation coming from authorities) may have received equal attention from the press.

This essay addresses tensions arising from the encounter between the new forms of neoliberal capitalism in life on digital platforms and the communication market that deals with scientific misinformation. To this end, we present statistical data on misinformation about vaccines, as well as theoretical approaches concerning the platforms' negotiating possibilities. On the one hand, optimists who see in the big techs connective business models, on the other, thinkers who consider the platforms as new spaces of exploitation and human colonization, where misinformation presents itself as a strategy to attract users' attention.

During the COVID19 pandemic, social networks became the main source of information and misinformation. In these spaces, image and immediacy prevailed when sharing information. Tiktok appears as an emerging social network with its own performance that promotes entertainment through rapidly making audiovisual content viral. This research studies TikTok as a means of scientific dissemination, analysing the audiovisual resources used and the content published to identify their impact on the social network's niche audiences.

In this research, we analyze the meaning of science discourse in the podcast Café da Manhã during the Covid-19 pandemic in Brazil, in a context of epistemic crisis in the journalistic and scientific fields. By applying French Discourse Analysis in episodes that dealt with vaccines, we identified three main discourse units: the government was negligent and negligent; vaccination is governed by the market economy; the benefits of vaccines outweigh their risks. From these nuclei of meaning, we observe the influence of the sociopolitical climate permeated by misinformation and denial in the contruction of journalistic discourse about the techno-scientific discoveries during the pandemic.

La presente investigación da cuenta cómo la prensa escrita chilena ha publicado noticias asociadas a la ciencia y tecnología en los últimos años, analizando las fuentes que se usan y las temáticas que se plantean, haciendo un paralelo de lo que se informaba pre y post pandemia. Los resultados reflejan que hubo una disminución de noticias científicas entre los meses de enero del 2020 y enero del 2021, y que, además, el coronavirus se tomó las pautas informativas de los principales diarios de Chile.

Este artigo tem como objetivo promover debates sobre a presença do fenômeno da selfie no museu a partir do olhar da comunicação institucional, dos públicos e de artistas expositores. Para isso, investigou-se o Museu Oscar Niemeyer localizado na cidade de Curitiba-PR/Brasil. Diferentes métodos e técnicas foram adotados nesta pesquisa: uma netnografia, um survey e entrevistas semiestruturadas. Com base nos resultados, é possível afirmar que o museu investigado utiliza a selfie como estratégia de comunicação em suas plataformas de redes sociais digitais, assim como seus visitantes possuem uma prática semanal com o fenômeno e muitos artistas têm pensado na selfie durante o desenvolvimento de trabalhos artísticos.

La fenomenología feminista se propone como mirada que evidencia la normalización de las prácticas incorporadas de salud y belleza ligadas al estilo de vida ‘fitness’ en las mujeres. Ante la pregunta: ¿Cómo se construye la imagen del cuerpo “saludable” que las mujeres tienen y desarrollan, atravesado por las prácticas del estilo de vida ‘fitness’, a partir de y, en interrelación, con ‘Instagram’? Se responden con etnografía para el Internet para comprender las visualidades corporales y las prácticas hegemónicas del ‘fitness’ y se triangula con entrevistas narrativas a cuatro mujeres. Se resalta el papel de la fotografía digital para la, propuesta propia, hiperconciencia corporal.

Este trabalho apresenta o processo de criação do podcast de divulgação científica “Conexão Científica”, projeto de extensão desenvolvido como uma prática educomunicativa no Colégio Pedro II (Rio de Janeiro, Brasil).
