Experience-value in the context of experiential journalism

Abstract A rapid overview on contemporary journalism strategies points to a reinforcement of ideas of “experience” and “experimentation.” The recurrence with which these concepts have been employed in various scientific and professional domains attests to its importance in relation to cyberjournalistic contents, especially using Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality. This article discusses the experience in this panorama, taking into account two spheres: one, which concerns the experimentation of journalism as the scope of production, and the second, as far as the reader/user experience is concerned. The analysis was carried out in reference journals such as Folha de S. Paulo, The New York Times and The Guardian. The conclusion points out that an instance is manifested in the production and enjoyment of journalistic contents that we can define as experience-value.

摘要 对当代新闻业战略的快速梳理可见，“体验”与“实验”理念正得到强化。这些概念在各类科学与专业领域的反复使用，印证了其对于网络新闻内容的重要性，在采用虚拟现实（Virtual Reality）与增强现实（Augmented Reality）技术的场景中尤为突出。本文围绕这一语境展开关于“体验”的探讨，涵盖两大维度：其一聚焦作为生产范畴的新闻实验，其二则围绕受众/用户体验展开。本次分析以《圣保罗页报》（Folha de S. Paulo）、《纽约时报》（The New York Times）与《卫报》（The Guardian）等权威期刊为样本开展研究。研究结论指出，在新闻内容的生产与消费环节中，存在一种可被定义为“体验价值”的维度。
