Description:
Liveness is a persistent and much-debated concept in media studies. Until recently, it was associated primarily with broadcast media, and television in particular. However, the emergence of social media has brought new forms of liveness into effect. These forms challenge common assumptions about and perspectives on liveness, provoking a revisiting of the concept.
In this book, Karin van Es develops a comprehensive understanding of liveness today, and clarifies the stakes surrounding the category of the live . She argues that liveness is the product of a dynamic interaction between media institutions, technologies and users. In doing so, she challenges earlier conceptions of the notion, which tended to focus on either one of these contributors to its constructionBy analyzing the live in four different cases a live streaming platform, an online music collaboration website, an example of social TV, and a social networking site van Es explores the operation of the category and pinpoints the conditions under which it comes into being. The analysis is the starting point for a broader reflection on the relation between broadcast and social media.

Soften The Mane
Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
AWESOME beard oil! I have tried at least a half dozen brands of beard oil with mixed results, and Atwater has delivered some of if not the best results. In fact after using this for a few weeks and seeing a noticeable difference in the softness of my beard and health of my skin underneath, I read about it and saw it received a Men's Health Magazine award for best beard oil. So apparently I'm not the only happy customer out there. The 1oz bottle will last a while depending on how much is applied and how much beard you have obviously, but a little goes a long way. I would prefer a pump top on the bottle for dispensing, but it is not messy or hard to get the right amount out of this current bottle. You pay a premium price for it, but compared to most of the other products out there it's about the same price and delivers better results. If you're looking to up your beard game or soften your man's mane, give Atwater beard oil a try, I expect you won't be disappointed.

Smells fantastic, works as well as any other beard oil
Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I got this for my husband to try, because it looked like a higher quality than his go-to beard oil. Also because I particularly like the scent of lavender, and he was becoming nose blind to the scent of his daily beard oil to the point that I was having to let him know when the scent was overwhelming.
We are both very pleased with the Atwater Beard Conditioner. The scent is fresh and clean, not at all cloying. And it fades relatively quickly, leaving just a faint trace of fragrance in his beard.
He’s overall satisfied with the effectiveness of this product as far as any beard oil goes. It’s not appreciably better than any of the less expensive conditioners he’s used, and he says he hasn’t noticed that it has any exfoliating effect.
But it does make his beard feel nice and soft, and it looks healthy without being oily or greasy. He particularly likes the dispenser because it only puts a few drops into his hand at a time, allowing him better control over the amount he uses.
So in terms of effectiveness, I’d say there are less expensive options that work more or less as well as this one. But the big difference for us is the light scent.

Cremo Bourbon & Oak 2-in-1: A Gentleman's Shower Staple
Scent: Bourbon & Oak, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
The Cremo Bourbon & Oak 2-in-1 Shampoo & Conditioner isn't just a cleaning product; it's an experience. In a world of sterile, generic men's grooming, Cremo consistently delivers a distinctive, high-quality product that feels far more premium than its price tag suggests. If you're looking to elevate your daily shower ritual, this is the bottle to grab.
The Scent: Unmistakable Sophistication
The most immediate and defining characteristic of this product is, without a doubt, its Bourbon & Oak fragrance. It masterfully blends warm, slightly sweet notes of aged oak and barrel-aged bourbon with a subtle, earthy musk.
Projection: The scent is robust in the shower, creating a satisfying, rich steam, but it quickly settles down. It leaves a subtle, masculine residual scent on your hair that lasts for hours without overpowering cologne. It smells authentic—like a high-end barbershop mixed with a cozy speakeasy.
Aroma Profile: Unlike many cheap fragrances that smell synthetic, the Cremo scent is layered and complex, avoiding that cloying sweetness that can plague other vanilla or wood-based products.
Performance: The Best of Both Worlds
When it comes to 2-in-1 products, there's always a risk of compromise—great cleaning, poor conditioning, or vice versa. Cremo successfully sidesteps this pitfall.
Cleansing Power: The shampoo produces a rich, satisfying lather that effectively cuts through product buildup and oil without stripping the hair of its natural moisture. It leaves the scalp feeling invigorated and genuinely clean.
Conditioning Efficacy: This is where the product truly shines. After rinsing, the hair feels surprisingly soft and manageable. For men with shorter to medium-length hair, the built-in conditioner provides enough hydration to prevent that stiff, straw-like feeling that often follows a wash. It makes combing and styling noticeably easier.
Formula: It’s formulated to rinse clean with no residue, which is essential for a product designed for daily use.
The Verdict
The Cremo Bourbon & Oak 2-in1 is an exceptional offering that delivers on its promises. It is the gold standard for men who want a convenient, high-performing 2-in-1 without sacrificing the luxury of a refined scent.
Final Recommendation: Buy it. This is an easy replacement for whatever generic shampoo you currently have in your shower. It’s an effortless way to upgrade your routine and start your day with a confidence-boosting aroma.

Scent: Palo Santo, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
absolutely love the Palo Santo Chemo Body Wash by Cremo. The scent is warm, woodsy, and slightly sweet without being overpowering. It smells clean but elevated — like a subtle, high-end cologne that lingers just enough after you shower.
The lather is rich and creamy, and a small amount goes a long way. It leaves my skin feeling clean and moisturized without that tight, dry feeling some body washes cause. The fragrance lasts for hours, which I appreciate because it layers well with other products.
If you like warm, earthy scents with depth, this is a must-try. I will definitely be repurchasing!
