ABSTRACT In this paper we interrogate how different research assemblages act as affect-enhancing devices for elections by drawing from the 2015 Canadian Federal election. The paper uses scholarship from media events traditions to devise an ontological framework for analysing the mediatization of elections and to show how research assemblages propagate a myth of the mediated centre. We then discuss two examples of how research assemblages are deployed as mood enhancing devices within election coverage. The first example focuses on how polling data is deployed to generate and sustain a myth of the mediated centre within an ontology of expectation. For the second example, we turn to how the emergence of a participatory condition in contemporary sociality introduces an ontology of anticipation that further problematizes the role of research assemblages in the mediatization of elections. In the final sections of the paper, we examine a case study of Creative Publics: Art-Making Inspired by the Federal Election to discuss alternative approaches to researching elections that also draw on an ontology of anticipation. We show how alternative research assemblages can channel the anticipation generated by participatory politics to yield more diverse and critical forms of participation in the lead up to elections.

期望和期待:选举研究组合

摘要 在本文中,我们通过借鉴 2015 年加拿大联邦选举,探究不同的研究组合如何作为选举的影响增强工具。本文利用媒体事件传统的学术成果设计了一个本体论框架来分析选举的中介化,并展示研究组合如何传播中介中心的神话。然后,我们讨论了两个关于如何在选举报道中将研究组合部署为情绪增强设备的例子。第一个示例侧重于如何部署投票数据以在期望本体中生成和维持中介中心的神话。对于第二个例子,我们转向当代社会中参与性条件的出现如何引入一种预期本体论,从而进一步使研究组合在选举中介化中的作用问题化。在本文的最后部分,我们研究了创意公众的案例研究:受联邦选举启发的艺术制作,以讨论研究选举的替代方法,这些方法也借鉴了预期本体论。我们展示了替代研究组合如何引导参与式政治产生的预期,从而在选举前产生更多样化和批判性的参与形式。受联邦选举启发的艺术制作,讨论研究选举的替代方法,这些方法也借鉴了预期的本体论。我们展示了替代研究组合如何引导参与式政治产生的预期,从而在选举前产生更多样化和批判性的参与形式。受联邦选举启发的艺术制作,讨论研究选举的替代方法,这些方法也借鉴了预期的本体论。我们展示了替代研究组合如何引导参与式政治产生的预期,从而在选举前产生更多样化和批判性的参与形式。
