Abstract
As a mobile video sharing infrastructure based on the individual, yet utilizing global smartphone platforms, Periscope challenges broadcast logics of content production and circulation. The intimacy of the app, combined with its immediacy, also fosters new types of live video content, potentially reinvigorating mobile journalism and crisis reporting.
