English abstract

The digital media have undergone an unprecedented transformation in recent years by exploiting the combined communicative potential of interaction and visualisation, generating, in this way, new narrative forms and journalistic stories. But this is not something that can be analysed in isolation. Understanding the digital media requires addressing the study of interactive texts and the platforms of the digital ecosystem from different perspectives.The digital media today have highly permeable boundaries, the guidelines that define them being subject to constant modification: their texts are dynamic and constantly changing, their systems operate, thanks to artificial intelligence, as just another actor that analyses, collects and manages information. The space separating senders and receivers of messages has become fuzzy and interwoven. For this reason, the study of digital journalism has to assume this unremitting transformation as simply one more element in the debate about the media, and accept it as a characteristic of the digital culture that defines the field of communication.

Spanish abstract

En los últimos años los medios digitales han vivido una transformación sin precedentes al vincular el potencial comunicativo de la interacción y la visualización. Se han generado, con ello, nuevas formas narrativas y relatos periodísticos. Pero no se trata de un aspecto que pueda analizarse de forma aislada. La comprensión del medio digital exige abordar el estudio de los textos interactivos, el medio digital y su ecosistema desde distintas perspectivas.El medio digital muestra una gran permeabilidad en sus fronteras, modifica constantemente las pautas que lo definen: los textos resultan dinámicos y mutables, los sistemas actúan, por medio de la inteligencia artificial, como un actor más que analiza, recoge y gestiona información. El espacio entre emisores y receptores en muchas ocasiones se entremezcla. Es por ello que la investigación del periodismo digital asume la transformación constante como un elemento más de debate sobre los medios, y la acepta como una característica de la cultura digital que define el ámbito de la comunicación.
