DESCRIPTION:Many critiques of social media target their model of the soci
 al as being ideological in constructing a communal platform devoid of co
 llectivity and antagonism\, a pacified techno-sociality that is compatib
 le with neoliberal capitalism. The paper looks at the social enacted by 
 social media platforms. It examines it as a transcoding of the diagram o
 f social networking when it becomes incorporated in a machine of social 
 computation embedded in a digital communication infrastructure. What is 
 the relation between the diagram of social network analysis and the “hyp
 er-social” as a technical milieu of circulation that redefines the early
  21st century concept of the social?\n\nTiziana Terranova is Associate P
 rofessor in New Media and Cultural Studies at the University of Naples L
 'Orientale. She is the author of Network Culture: Politics for the Infor
 mation Age (Pluto Press\, 2004) and the forthcoming Hypersocial: digital
  media and social networking (University of Minnesota Press) and numerou
 s essays on the social and cultural politics of digital media.\n
