Audiencing is something we do everyday. We do it all the time. In fact, we are so familiar with giving attention to someone or something how we audience and the types of audiencing we are do are invisible. This book makes visible four types of audiencing, and you will discover what it means to do each form of audiencing and why this matters. Playful popular quotes, academic research, and anecdotes from numerous fields of endeavour from computer programming to jujitsu, from movie editing to watching a friend play football, are all used to demonstrate the characteristics and challenges of each audiencing type. Audiencing presents a far-reaching concept and a useful language to see and understand ourselves as audiences in our work and study, in the arts, communications, sport, on the internet, and in our everyday lives as we audience each other. To discover more – audience on.
