NARRATOLOGY OF PAUL KLEE – THE VISUAL BETWEEN LITERATURE AND MUSIC
/in Narratology /by Kcs21blAAPaul Klee, had enriched his theoretical work and lectures with narratology in which the visual can be analyzed in close relation to literature and music. Klee expressed his narratology not only in his diaries and letters but also in his lectures where the specific aspects of the narrative where sought in between the textual and the visual. He built the narration by writing as well as reading, at the same time building his own self. In searching and seeking a narration that would be as precise as possible and expressed in adequate form, Klee reached for means offered by literature and music as the two fields that were familiar, and even to some degree, very close to him. As a matter of fact, Klee played the violin in his youth, read extensively and expressed a talent for writing, and being ambivalently inclined to both music and painting as his life calling, he could move between these two field freely, seeking in both of them expression of the visual. This movement resembles the movement of his lines which find adequate paths toward expression of his simultaneously liberated and precise nature.

TOWARDS THE MANGEMENT OF PARTICIPATORY JOURNALISM: EXPERIENCES FROM THE NEWSROOM
/in Themes /by Kcs21blAAIn hyper-complex societies in which we live today, a growing question is whether the mass-media concept of the 20th century is still applicable to the contemporary moment. The media manipulation, spinning and commercialization distance media production from its audiences. At the same time, the flood of free web-based content creates new distribution channels and markets. This new economic and social context challenges media organizations to reconfigure their social role and (re)create relationships with their audiences. However, opening the gates for the transition of the people formerly known as the audience to the production side of the media sphere, can easily create a total confusion and chaos. The solution partly lies in the management of media participation. The aim of this research is to map and analyse various models of participatory journalism used by Serbian online media. In the qualitative research process, editors of four leading online media organizations shared their practices, experiences, struggles and opinions on the topic. Four models of management of participatory practice were mapped and analysed in detail. The most commonly used model is the commentary-based one, while the classical citizen journalism model still plays an important role. The research shows that more complex models – like the integration with social media and opening specialized media spaces for audiences – offer more freedom of expression to the audiences and create new audiences (and markets) for the media. However, these models are more demanding towards the audience as well, asking for more responsibility, skills and courage to communicate delicate matters. Finally, it is important to notice that every media is trying to find its own mix of practices and procedures, which will enable them to operate in a highly difficult economic and political situation for the media in Serbia of today.

RITUAL TIME OF THE BELGRADE BOOK FAIR
/in Cultures of Rhythms and Spectacle /by Kcs21blAAThe author analyzes the Book Fair as a peculiar modern festival with specific ritual elements. Out of complexity of its temporal discourse this cultural event derives its specific structure which provides for its symbolic-ritual potential.
Modern festivals inherited their ritual-symbolic forms from the former, mostly religious ones. Ritual elements of contemporary happenings are breaking a chronotop of everyday linearity. Modern festival also brings about a new understanding of social cohesion. While potentials of renewal and affirmation of a community as a whole were inherent to the old model of ritual and festival, the contemporary festival out of the field of social dispersion establishes cohesion of a micro group.
In the contemporary cultural-political discourse the need for ritual persists as an archetypal necessity, as a mean enabling community to reaffirm and renew itself. The fact that modern festival lacks capacity of totality facilitating a social community to identify with it as a whole, significantly relativizes this archetypal normative.
The relativization of contemporary festivals, their invisibility on the universal level has to find its counter-balance somewhere else if they are to remain a genuine social need. The point of balance between the former totality of festival and ephemeral character of the contemporary one has been found in specialization of the latter. The Book Fair is a kind of normative communitas organized within a social system, and demanding a certain degree of social control.

CREATIVE WORKERS – STARS OF MEDIA CULTURE
/in Creative Sector - Outlines of a New Model of Development /by Kcs21blAAThanks to its economic potential, creative industries are considered the most promising form of enterpreneurship today, but also in the future. Development of creative industries is largely influenced by the position of creative workers, which, it appears, is defined by media culture that is oriented towards stars. Creative persons have never been famous as today. Even the artists who do not possess a top-class talent, have the opportunity to be in the media and present their creative work. The fact that creative workers are exposed in the media could have positive effects, related primarily to the possibility of mass audience to become acquainted with their work.
