鲸的死亡:假肢社会的审美批判

Death of the Whale: An Aesthetic Criticism of Artificial-limb Society

布迪厄质疑“谁是话语的主体?”即使拿媒介曾经具有的无比灵动的审美知觉来进行辩护也无济于事,主体已经消失在媒介话语的地平线上。媒介是人的延伸,但延伸的是假肢,在媒介化生存的大背景下,主体已经被媒介话语运动场中的主体所替代,主体不再审美,带着媒体假肢冒充上帝。

Bourdieu questioned： ＂Who is the subject of discourse？＂ It is useless even to argue for it using the flexible aesthetic perception once possessed by the mass media because subject has disappeared by in the discourse of the media. The mass media is the extension of man, but only an artificial limb. With all existence controlled by the media, subject is replaced by the subject of the discourse of the media. Subject does no longer have aesthetic perception, and with the artificial limb of the media it pretends to be God.
