The Â鶹´«Ã½Ó³» Media Lab
A new lab has opened at Â鶹´«Ã½Ó³» of Queensland after a team of academics secured $180,000 to fund a media space that uses the latest in software technology.
Dr Seb Kaempf and Dr Martin Weber from Political Science and International Studies and Associate Professor Eric Louw from Journalism and Communication are using the Major Equipment and Infrastructure fund to embark on new territory for social science research.
The equipment including hardware, software and storage facilities will be used to monitor televised newscasts from global public service broadcasters simultaneously and continuously with the aim of analysing televised media reporting on major political events.
