Convergence Culture : Where Old and New Media Collide
Winner of the 2007 Society for Cinema and Media Studies Katherine Singer Kovacs Book Award2007 Choice Outstanding Academic TitleA classic study on the dynamic between an individual and different media channels Convergence Culture maps a new territory: where old and new media intersect, where grassroots and corporate media collide, where the power of the media producer and the power of the consumer interact in unpredictable ways. Henry Jenkins, one of America’s most respected media analysts, delves beneath the new media hype to uncover the important cultural transformations that are taking place as media converge.He takes us into the secret world of Survivor Spoilers, where avid internet users pool their knowledge to unearth the show’s secrets before they are revealed on the air.He introduces us to young Harry Potter fans who are writing their own Hogwarts tales while executives at Warner Brothers struggle for control of their franchise.He shows us how The Matrix has pushed transmedia storytelling to new levels, creating a fictional world where consumers track down bits of the story across multiple media channels.Jenkins argues that struggles over convergence will redefine the face of American popular culture.Industry leaders see opportunities to direct content across many channels to increase revenue and broaden markets.At the same time, consumers envision a liberated public sphere, free of network controls, in a decentralized media environment.Sometimes corporate and grassroots efforts reinforce each other, creating closer, more rewarding relations between media producers and consumers.Sometimes these two forces are at war. Jenkins provides a riveting introduction to the world where every story gets told and every brand gets sold across multiple media platforms.He explains the cultural shift that is occurring as consumers fight for control across disparate channels, changing the way we do business, elect our leaders, and educate our children.

What is convergence?
Convergence refers to the coming together of different technologies, industries, or platforms to create new opportunities or solutions. It involves the integration of various elements to work together in a unified way. Convergence often leads to innovation and the development of new products or services that were not possible before. It can also result in increased efficiency, improved user experience, and greater convenience.
-
What is pointwise convergence?
Pointwise convergence is a concept in mathematics that describes the behavior of a sequence of functions. A sequence of functions converges pointwise if, for each point in the domain, the sequence of function values at that point converges to a limit as the index of the sequence goes to infinity. In other words, for every fixed point in the domain, the sequence of function values at that point approaches a specific value as the index of the sequence increases.

'How do I determine the convergence and absolute convergence of this series?'
To determine the convergence of a series, you can use tests such as the ratio test, the root test, or the comparison test. For absolute convergence, you can use the absolute convergence test. These tests involve finding the limit of the ratio or the root of the terms of the series, or comparing the series to a known convergent or divergent series. If the limit of the ratio or the root is less than 1, the series converges. If the series converges and the absolute value of the series also converges, then the series is absolutely convergent.
-
What is convergence or divergence?
Convergence refers to the process of coming together or moving toward a common point. In the context of mathematics or statistics, convergence occurs when a sequence of numbers or variables approaches a specific value. On the other hand, divergence is the opposite of convergence, where a sequence of numbers or variables does not approach a specific value but instead moves away from it or fails to settle on a single value. Both convergence and divergence are important concepts in various fields, including mathematics, economics, and physics.

Fake Geek Girls : Fandom, Gender, and the Convergence Culture Industry
Reveals the systematic marginalization of women within pop culture fan communitiesWhen Ghostbusters returned to the screen in 2016, some male fans of the original film boycotted the all-female adaptation of the cult classic, turning to Twitter to express their disapproval and making it clear that they considered the film’s “real” fans to be white, straight men.While extreme, these responses are far from unusual, with similar uproars around the female protagonists of the new Star Wars films to full-fledged geek culture wars and harassment campaigns, as exemplified by the #GamerGate controversy that began in 2014. Over the past decade, fan and geek culture has moved from the margins to the mainstream as fans have become tastemakers and promotional partners, with fan art transformed into official merchandise and fan fiction launching new franchises.But this shift has left some people behind. Suzanne Scott points to the ways in which the “men’s rights” movement and antifeminist pushback against “social justice warriors” connect to new mainstream fandom, where female casting in geek-nostalgia reboots is vilified and historically feminized forms of fan engagement—like cosplay and fan fiction—are treated as less worthy than male-dominant expressions of fandom like collection, possession, and cataloguing.While this gender bias harkens back to the origins of fandom itself, Fake Geek Girls contends that the current view of women in fandom as either inauthentic masqueraders or unwelcome interlopers has been tacitly endorsed by Hollywood franchises and the viewer demographics they selectively champion.It offers a view into the inner workings of how digital fan culture converges with old media and its biases in new and novel ways.

Is convergence true in mathematics?
Yes, convergence is true in mathematics. Convergence refers to the idea that a sequence of numbers or functions approaches a certain value as the number of terms or inputs increases. This concept is fundamental in calculus, analysis, and many other areas of mathematics. Convergence is rigorously defined and proven using mathematical principles, and it is a crucial concept for understanding the behavior of sequences and series in mathematics.
-
How do you investigate convergence?
To investigate convergence, one can use various methods such as the ratio test, the root test, the comparison test, or the integral test. These tests help determine whether a series converges or diverges by examining the behavior of its terms. The ratio test and the root test are particularly useful for determining convergence of series with factorial or exponential terms, while the comparison test can be used to compare the given series with a known convergent or divergent series. The integral test involves comparing the given series with an improper integral to determine convergence. Overall, investigating convergence involves applying these tests and methods to analyze the behavior of the series and determine its convergence or divergence.
-
For which x does convergence hold?
Convergence holds for x values where the limit of the sequence or series exists as x approaches a certain value. In other words, convergence holds when the terms of the sequence or series approach a specific value as x gets closer to a particular point. The convergence of a sequence or series is determined by analyzing the behavior of its terms as x approaches a certain value.
-
What is the proof of convergence?
The proof of convergence in mathematics typically involves showing that as the number of terms in a sequence or series approaches infinity, the terms get closer and closer to a specific value. This can be done using various mathematical techniques such as the epsilon-delta definition of limits, the ratio test, the root test, or the comparison test. By demonstrating that the terms of the sequence or series eventually stabilize around a certain value, we can conclude that the sequence or series converges.
