Abstract:

This book examines semiotics, meaning-making and the co-construction of
relations in transmodal communications. Through the lens of transpositioning –
the multiple and interwoven layers of emplacements and positionings that are
entailed in communications which cross and transcend the boundaries that have
historically shaped our thinking about the world and its inhabitants – the
chapters interrogate digital languaging and literacies, and how transmodal
communications shape identities, belongings and relationships, with particular
attention paid to issues of equity and social justice. The chapter authors
consider both transmodalities and critical cosmopolitanism as they analyze
empirical data from youth, adults and researchers participating in a project
that digitally connects youth to share their lives across diverse and
under-resourced global communities. In offering this multi-perspectival,
multi-voiced volume, the authors portray and address methodological issues in
researching transglobal transmodal communications.
