Abstract
Global streaming services interfaces play nowadays a key role with respect to consumption practices and viewing experiences, and can be understood as digital media environments where the users’ agency interact with the agency of recommendation systems, which organize the topology of the space and the hierarchy of available information, thus determining the accessibility (availability) and discoverability (prominence) of audiovisual content. Within this framework, this ar5cle shows the results of a research involving a panel of sixty Italian Ne4lix users, which combines the tools of social research together with the ethnosemiotic methodology, in order to investigate how Netflix users perceive the recommendation system and how this system is related to the viewers’ tastes and freedom of choice.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
