According to the Museum of Media History - The "Evolving Personalized Information Construct" is the system by which our sprawling, chaotic mediascape is filtered, ordered and delivered. Everyone contributes now - from blog entries, to phone-cam images, to video reports, to full investigations. Many people get paid too - a tiny cut of Googlezon's immense advertising revenue, proportional to the popularity of their contributions.

Get the Constructive Criticism mug.A theory for people to identify and describe an animal or an object to analyze and to communicate with the world around them. People concentrate on characteristics like height, eye color, and weight to differentiate between animals or objects, instead of race, gender, income status, or nationality. For instance, a house cat is much shorter, has thinner fangs, utters "meow", and he/she is much lighter, unlike a lion who is much taller, has thicker fangs, yells out "roar", and he/she is much heavier, despite a cat and a lion belonging to the same feline family line as distant cousins to each other. Another instance is that a Smart TV doesn't feature any buttons to turn it on/off, to adjust its volume or brightness, to switch channels, its outlets are located behind it, and it is much lighter, compared to the older CRT TV. Universally, everyone and everything is a social construct, but a social construct is not everyone and not everything.
There are social construct words that are not ethnic/racial terms. Examples are "white/Roman" that refers to Europeans and Hispanics/Latinos, "black" that refers to Africans and the Australoid people, "Han Chinese" that refers to Cantonese, Hokkien, Hakka, Wu, and northern Hans, and "Mongol" that refers to proto-Mongols, Khitans, and Tuyuhun. These socially constructed words are used to unify the masses under nationalism against foreign enemies to take back their freedom and to connect to the world. I find it ironic that some people thinking about themselves as "white" or "black", still fight each other over their own individuality and are still slaves to the original white or black elites, who are tyrannizing them and eliminating their ethnic identities to make them follow a single authoritarian ethnicity in the name of the dollar and dominance. It doesn't matter what category we are placed under. In other words, slavery never ceased; slavery has just evolved.

Get the expand your constituency mug.A gang formed by 8th grade girls in 2008. They get demerits on purpose almost everyday. To get in this gang you have to get a demerit on purpose. Their sign is a okay sign language thing. The point finger and the thumb is the "C" for construction and the other three fingers turn out to be a "W" for workers. Everyone in this group has to be sexy(: If not fuck you;; your not in it.

Get the Construction Workers mug.The perspective that technologies are not neutral tools with inevitable effects. They are built by people with specific values, assumptions, and worldviews embedded in their design. A social media algorithm isn't just code; it's a constructed technology that embodies theories about human attention, social interaction, and value (e.g., engagement = profit). These embedded constructions then shape user behavior, often reinforcing the very worldviews used to build them.
Example: "The dating app's 'matching algorithm' wasn't magic; it was a Theory of Constructed Technology in action. It was built on a model of human attraction as a checklist of preferences, which then taught users to see themselves and others as checklists. The technology didn't just find love; it constructed a new way of looking for it." Theory of Constructed Technologies

Get the Theory of Constructed Technologies mug.The sociological view that scientific knowledge, while aiming for objectivity, is inevitably a human construction shaped by social factors: funding priorities, institutional power, peer review culture, dominant paradigms, and even the personalities of leading scientists. This doesn't mean science is "just an opinion," but that the path to reliable knowledge is paved with social negotiations, controversies, and the gradual construction of consensus, not the simple revelation of pure nature.
Example: "Studying the Theory of Constructed Science, she saw the Nobel Prize not as a divine award for truth, but as the pinnacle of a construction process: decades of building a persuasive narrative, converting peers, winning grants, and marginalizing rival theories until one framework became the 'obvious' truth etched in textbooks."
