VALDERRAMA, Matías  y  VELASCO, Patricio. Programming creation? An exploration of the socio-technical field of YouTube in Chile. Cuad.inf. [online]. 2018, n.42, pp.39-53. ISSN 0719-3661.  http://dx.doi.org/10.7764/cdi.42.1370.

In recent years, attention has been drawn to the influence that digital platforms would have on the creative practices of their users. Through a qualitative analysis of interviews with Chilean creators of audiovisual content on YouTube, we will show how their creative practices are situated within an emerging socio-technical field in which there is a struggle for different forms of capital. This field would present specific dynamics of distinction, recognition and consecration, which would be actively shaped by the complex algorithmic systems and metrics that configure the valorization and monetization of the contents.

Palabras clave : digital platforms; Bourdieu; YouTube; attention; fields.
