网络青年文化的“自我空间”论

"Own Space" of Network Youth Culture

后现代的网络社会既给青年人寻找自我、建构身份搭建了广阔的新舞台,也为青年人提供了一个空间自由、文化自主的新天地——青年文化的"自我空间"。在这样一个以"自我"为中心和遵循"快乐至上"原则的空间里,青年人主动将自我符号化,充分运用网络媒介的自主权,通过创建微电影、微小说等微美学文本,把自己的内心世界投射到网络社会并最大限度地释放与表现、宣泄与满足。他们在"自我空间"里呈现自我、形塑自我的同时,也进行着青年亚文化的传播与实践。

Postmodern network society not only builds up a vast new arena for the young to seek for self and construct the identity, but also provides them with a new world which is free and autonomic in culture. That is, the very space for youth culture. In this space which is self-centered and happiness-oriented, youngsters symbolize themselves initiatively, and make extensive use of the autonomy in network media. By creating micro movies, hint fictions and other kinds of aesthetic texts, young people present their inner world onto the network society, and get it released, expressed, vented and satisfied likewise. While presenting and shaping themselves in the ＂own space＂, they have spread and practice the youth subculture as well.
