“媒介化移动”:手机与地铁乘客的移动节奏

“Mediatized Mobilities”: A Rhythmanalysis on Metro Passengers’ Mobile Phone Use

手机等现代传播科技的普遍使用与移动性的塑造密不可分,尤其是在地铁这样一个双重封闭的空间中。数字网络中的"移动"事实上改变了乘客本身的物理移动体验,如何理解这种相互建构的"移动"就构成了本研究的主要问题。借助列斐伏尔的"节奏分析",本研究发现,乘客的时-空体验关联于手机所带来的移动潜能,由此经验到三个维度的不同移动节奏,包括旨在定制化个人移动体验的"同步节奏",主动暂停移动的"异步节奏",以及物理移动与虚拟移动交互而形成的"等律节奏"。本研究以"媒介化移动"来指称这样一种复合移动形态,从而确立手机等信息传播技术之物质性维度在形塑移动生成中的基础性地位。最后,本研究还对节奏分析与移动性研究的未来方向提出展望。

Passengers’mobile phone use in metro system contributes to the construction of various mobilities in which the virtual mobility can reshape passengers’physical mobility and vice versa.Taking departure from Lefebvre’s rhythmanalysis,this paper argues there exist three different kinds of rhythms during passengers’travelling times which are polyrhythmia,eurhythmia and isorhythmia based on the conceptualization of"mediatized mobilities".This paper highlights the materiality of mobile phone as a crucial anchor in shaping and reshaping of passengers’mobilities.In the concluding part,we propose a future orientation of research for the combination between mobilities studies and rhythmanalysis.
