媒介寓言:幻觉分析的方法论反思

Media Allegory:Methodological Reflections on the Analysis of Illusion

幻觉是人类的本能,而求真是要揭示世界的永恒秩序和本质规律。古典时期,制造幻觉的媒介背后总有现实对应,求真具有客观依据;但现代媒介强大的虚拟能力切断了幻觉与现实的血脉关联,让幻觉在产生、传播、阐释环节反客为主,反过来控制人类,构成新型幻觉机制和意义关系。通过着重考察数字复制语境中的幻觉表征,结合波德里亚的理论总结,可以深入反思艺术幻觉分析在现代媒介语境中的方法论价值与局限,以试图把握现代媒介寓言背后的本真逻辑。

Illusion is the instinct of human beings,while truth seeking is to reveal the eternal order and essential law of the world.In the classical period,there was always a realistic correspondence behind the media that produced the illusion,and there was an objective basis for seeking truth.However,the powerful virtual ability of modern media cuts off the blood relationship between illusion and reality,making illusion the main part in the production,transmission and interpretation,and control human beings in turn,forming a new illusion mechanism and meaning relationship.Emphasis can be placed on examining the illusion representation in the context of digital replication,combined with Baudrillard’s theoretical summary,to deeply reflect on the methodological value and limitations of artistic illusion analysis in the context of modern media,in order to attempt to grasp the true logic behind the allegory of modern media.
