文化基因的“像”和“音”

"Image" and "Sound" in the Culture Gene

人类是从声音和图像走向"感知"的,但在成为"音"和"像"之后就走向了不同的文明形式,并且直接构成各自的文化基因。重视"音"的欧洲文明形式有其自身的特质,而重视于"像"的中亚文明形式也有自身的禀赋,这两种文明差异不是"进化"的结果,而是起始的结构不同。"像"和"音"的文化基因研究可以解读一系列关于东方文明和西方文明之间的谬误。

Human beings construct perception from voices and images, after which different forms of civilization were developed along with the directly formation of their respective culture gene. The European civilization, which attaches much importance to ＂sound＂, has its own characteristics, so does the Asian civilization which pays more attention to ＂image＂. The difference between the two civilizations is the result of different structures from the very beginning, rather than of evolution. The research on the culture gene of ＂images＂ and ＂sound＂ can help clarify a series of fallacies concerning Eastern civilization and Western civilization.
