Hi All,

Just an example below of the AOIR group list. A Ph.D. student makes an
inquiry about how to gather and analyze Facebook postings and gets a series
of responses about data scraping via Python, Netvizz, Gephi and more.

Best wishes.

Hi all,
I am novice researcher in my first Ph.D year at the Uni of Sheffield, UK. I
am doing interdisciplinary research. It is about the influence of social
media on shaping Libyans' attitude towards 17 February revolution and
beyond. I will look at how social media has influenced people's views and
beliefs and how has social media been used to distribute information.
My main methodology is qualitative. However, I may use mixed methods later
as the research progress. My data collection methods would be via
interviews and analsying social media. However, as I am new in this field
of analysing social media, I am wondering if someone can suggest me some
tools or software programs to be used in collecting, downloading and
analysing Facebook data. Moreover, I need these tools that support Arabic
language as the most posts would be in Arabic.
I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Thanks

Dear all,

I have the similar question. I am also looking for tools or software
programs which can collect, download, and analyse Facebook data. I don't
need the tools which support Arabic language specifically. Look forward to
your suggestions. Thank you so much.

Best,
Helen

Hi Helen and Sukaina,

I'm a PhD candidate in Communication and Information Sciences at University
of Hawaii. If you're familiar with programming, you can use a python script
to scrape facebook data. If not, I would use  the social plugin available
for the NodeXL template.

Best,

Hello Helen and Sukaina:

Also check this list curated by Deen Freelon:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1UaERzROI986HqcwrBDLaqGG8X_lYwctj6ek6ryqDOiQ/edit

It lists several Facebook data collection tools.

Good luck,

Hi!

You could perhaps try Netvizz if you want to analyze data from Facebook
groups. I used it in combination with Gephi to make visual graphs of
interactions in FB-groups.

Issue 6 (2016): Listening lines, online listening
<http://transposition.revues.org/1143#tocfrom1n2>

Coordination: St?phan-?lo?se Gras et Peter Szendy

Since the 1990s, listening has been the subject of growing interest, in
terms of not only its social history, but the related technical media and
philosophical aspects. Research such as that presented by James H.
Johnson *(Listening
in Paris*, 1996), Peter Szendy *(?coute, une histoire de nos oreilles*,
2001),
Jean-Luc Nancy *(? l??coute*, 2002), Jonathan Sterne *(The Audible Past*,
2003)
and more recently, Martin Kaltenecker *(L?Oreille divis?e*, 2010), Michael
Bull (*Sound Studies*, 2013) and Veit Erlmann *(Reason and Resonance*, 2014)
has given rise to a new field, although it is certainly not a homogenous
field that can simply be contained in the category of ?sound studies?.

Thus, there is a renewed curiosity about listening, and the recent
attention it has garnered might say something about the major changes
permeating our contemporary practices as musicians, musicologists,
researchers, scientists, artists, music lovers and Internet users, or in
other words, the practices of*listening subjects* in general.

But what we would like to elicit with this sixth issue of *Transposition *is
a more specific approach to these reflections. In making *listening lines*
the
theme of this Issue, the idea is essentially to examine a context that
prompts a rethinking of listening, that is, the massive development of
*online
listening* in the second half of the 2000s. Long thought of as a fairly
marginal behaviour by music 'pirates' and a threat to the music industry,
listening on digital platforms is now the preferred means of accessing
music for a rising number of listeners. Like CDs and radio in their time,
has streaming become the ubiquitous and totalising contemporary form of a
'musical museum'? In any case, the stabilisation of digital listening
practices and media undoubtedly raises new issues in terms of the
technological, industrial, economic, political and cultural impact.

Beyond the *shifting* of music to new formats, this Issue of our review
seeks to explore the nature and scope of the significant changes in the
ways we listen to music. What effects might have the *digital age* ? the
vast movement involving not only the computerisation of musical objects but
the massive socialisation of digital technologies ? on listening and
*listening
bodies*? At the crux of the matter is the prescriptive nature of the
formats and operations on which platforms such as YouTube, Spotify, Deezer
and Rdio are based.

In this sense, talking about *listening lines* also suggests that these
platforms are far from mere technical systems; they are in fact creating or
solidifying*guidelines* to listening, that is, (a) certain regime(s) of
listening. In trying to identify their origins, we can trace the genealogy
back well before the advent of digital distribution and streaming as such.
Studying the salons or the art of conversation might, for example, provide
insight into elements such as online automated recommendation systems ('X
likes?' as an invitation to listening) and chatting. The history of formats
(such as that explored by Jonathan Sterne in *Mp3. The Meaning of a
Format), *the history of forms of musical presentation and distribution
(evolution from concert and radio programming and discography albums to
bluetooth via mobile phones in sub-Saharan Africa) and the history of
audiovisual media (video clips, interactive experiences, etc.) also seem to
be fertile grounds for the exploration of how these new media are affecting
listening.

What this Issue seeks to do is to contextualise what is happening with the
massification of digital listening on platforms and mobile devices within
one or more genealogical *lineages*. The question we might ask is whether
online listening experiences, once placed in the broad scope of history,
indicate the emergence of a new musical culture and new audiences. In the
end, this long time span surely allows us to understand, examine and
perhaps shift the new*partition lines* of listening, i.e., the divides and
borders that appear even within the supposedly neutral and neutralising
framework of 'sharing'. Making playlists, browsing vast sound databases and
the simple act of 'liking' are all ways in which we are called, more than
ever before, to share our listening. But in a broader sense, do they not
also raise the question of *distributing* in the double sense of the French
word *partage*, meaning both dividing up and pooling?

In essence, these *partition lines* are dictated by the very distributions
of our musical sensibilities and our listening experiences configured by
contemporary digital media.

Possible areas to explore for a contribution:

? the social history of music media and genres ;

? the history of musical sensibilities;

? critical theory of popular music and new media;

? the sociology of musical tastes and culture and their mediations in the
digital sphere;

? the sociology of audiences reached by these new musical mediations;

? epistemology and/or the history of *sound studies;*

? transformations of the musical instrumentarium and the history of
perception;

? the aesthetics of sound and digital imaging;

? artistic works and experiences that undermine or replay the contemporary
regimes of musical experience.

Proposals for papers (in French or English), to include a presentation of
the research methodology and key findings, should be sent before *October
15th 2015* to the following address: transposition.submission at gmail.com. The
deadline for accepted papers is *January 30th 2016.*

One thing worth noting: Facebook just changed its API recently. The
fulltext search of public comments is gone.

Deen's list is great - thanks for sharing!

My dissertation is qualitative and I used NCapture for NVivo as they work
well together and the customer support/user community is excellent. My data
was Twitter based, not Facebook. I was mostly pleased with this route, and
would be happy to talk more off list about the pros and cons of this
specific tool.

An annoying loss, to be sure, but Facebook still allows API downloads of
posts + metadata to public pages and public comments left on them.
Unlike with Twitter, there are no time limits on how far back you can
go, so you can pull a page's entire history going back years. I've
developed a Python script to do this which is available here:

https://github.com/dfreelon/fb_scrape_public

I haven't tested this extensively but folks have been asking me about it
so I thought I'd throw it up. It's compatible with Facebook's recent API
migration.

Hi everyone,






You are invited to participate in a study that aims to understand how
researchers archive internet-based data for research purposes. We are
working on a project sponsored by the USA's National Endowment for the
Humanities to create an archiving tool for scholars working with digital
content. We have several research questions as we work on this project. We
want to find out if researchers are archiving in groups or alone. We want
to learn whether or not there are issues of privacy and security with data
capturing and data sets. We want to find out if researchers need their own
private data sets or if they want to publicly share it.






Below is a link to a short survey that will help us learn more about
archiving internet-based data. It should take approximately 20 minutes to
complete: https://wide.typeform.com/to/tiCier



This survey will be open for the next four weeks. After you complete the
survey, we may invite you to speak with one of our researchers to learn
more about internet-based archiving if you include your email address.



Thank you for your time,


Liza Potts
