Hikaye Anlatıcılığının Sosyal Medya Hali: Clubhouse

Clubhouse, diğer sosyal ağların aksine, kullanıcılardan kısa mesajlaşma, görüntülü arama veya fotoğraf, video paylaşımı gibi faaliyetlerde bulunmalarını istememektedir. Bunun yerine uygulama gerçek zamanlı akışa sahip sesli sohbet olanağı sunmaktadır. Bu uygulamanın kullanıcıları gerçek zamanlı konuşmaları dinleyebilir, bu konuşmalara katkıda bulunabilir ve diğerlerinin dinlemesi ve etkileşim kurması için kendi sohbet odalarını oluşturabilirler. COVID-19 sürecinde tüm dünyada bir anda popüler hale gelen Clubhouse uygulaması, aslında insanların görüntülerini paylaştıkları fotoğraf ya da videolardan ziyade sıradan, samimi bir sohbete ne kadar ihtiyaç duyduklarının da bir göstergesidir. Uygulamanın temel aracı “ses”tir. Bu da aslında uygulamanın klasik anlamdaki hikaye anlatıcılığının sosyal medyaya taşındığını düşündürmektedir. Bu çalışma kapsamında da hikaye anlatıcılığının sosyal medyada nasıl hayat bulmaya başladığı, Clubhouse uygulaması üzerinden kısaca değerlendirilmeye çalışılmıştır.

Social Media Form of Story Telling: Clubhouse

Unlike other social networks, Clubhouse does not require users to engage in activities such as text messaging, video calling or sharing photos and videos. Instead, the app offers real-time streaming voice chat. Users of this app can listen to real-time conversations, contribute to those conversations, and create their own chat rooms for others to listen to and interact with. The Clubhouse application, which has become popular all over the world during the COVID-19 process, is actually an indicator of how much people need an ordinary, intimate conversation rather than photos or videos sharing. The main tool of the application is “sound”. According to the brief explanation and considering sound as a medium by Clubhouse, this study actually suggests that the classical sense of storytelling of the application has been transferred to social media. Finally, this study attempts to briefly evaluate how storytelling started to come to life in social media through the Clubhouse application.
