But the nature and moral features of Big Data are still not understood. This paper proposes a view of the Big Data as a new field for eternal philosophical discussions about the human subject and its key characteristic – communication. The main findings are in the tradition of Russian philosophical and methodological thought and experience: social and political practice and values, practical philosophy and decision-making, sense and narration. At the heart of the Russian vision is the human subject in the process of interiorizing a social system of values, flexible and changeable like actual Big Data. The Russian version of Marxism (Vaziulin et al.), Russian logic and methodology of knowledge (Bruchlinskii and Gryaznov), Russian version of phenomenology (Shpet) and semiotics (Vygotsky, Bahtin, Jacobson, Propp and others) gave us the keys to comprehend any complex system – and to keep it human. Within the framework of the Russian philosophical tradition, technical Big Data problems and achievements should be considered in the context of moral differences and search for morality.","PeriodicalId":53456,"journal":{"name":"Russian Journal of Communication","volume":"8 1","pages":"252 - 262"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79101644","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Namely, what data driven communication means for Russian scholars in philosophy, political and media studies. The following materials are the outcome of a series of several scholarly meetings spread throughout leading universities throughout Russia – in Moscow at the Philosophy Faculty at Lomonosov Moscow State University, in Saint Petersburg at the Applied Political Science Department at National Research University Higher School of Economics with the support of the Russian Association of Political Science, the Research Committee on Public Politics and Civil Society Problems and TransRegion Humanitarian and Politology Center ‘Strategy’, in Kazan, Tatarstan – at the Higher School of Journalism and Media Communication at Kazan Federal University. Underlying these open forums is commitment to raising public concerns and advancing scholarly questions about the changing world of data driven communication studies and ethics in Russia. These discussions were organized and moderated by Dr Anna Kostikova (Lomonosov Moscow State University), Prof. Grygory Tulchinsky (Higher School of Economics, St. Petersburg) and Dr Leonid Tolchinsky (Kazan Federal University). All the discussions were supported by the ‘Russian Journal of Communication’ editor-in-chief Prof. Igor Klyukanov, Dr Ben Peters, Dr Robert Couch and Prof. Marina Shilina. It’s not expected that forum will lead to intellectual coherence or terse summary; we hope for just the opposite. May everyone find here a wide range of arenas in which data and ethical behavior cannot be separated: at their heart of each contribution and its surrounding conversations beats the question how human relations (or, what it means to be human) interacts with data-lit transformations where humans abide (or, what it means to be data).","PeriodicalId":53456,"journal":{"name":"Russian Journal of Communication","volume":"17 1","pages":"294 - 294"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79111284","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The application raises the question of shifts in cognitive reality in the wake of the ‘Data Revolution’, as well as the means by which digital tools may provide access to them. Attention has become one of the most important phenomena in the formation of social reality in the era of late capitalism. Fiber examines attention as data in the age of cognitive capitalism. This article posits a relationship between the visualization of invisible cognitive processes (‘iconoclastic imagery’), emergent means of access to them, and cognitive ethics – a way of processing data that in the predigital age belonged to the individual world of the subject, and now, having being converted into data, has been included in and co-opted by economic and communication exchange.","PeriodicalId":53456,"journal":{"name":"Russian Journal of Communication","volume":"476 1","pages":"268 - 277"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77046981","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
