数字身份认同的困境透视及其突破路径——基于记忆伦理之维

Perspectives on the Dilemma of Digital Identity and the Path to Breakthrough:Based on the Dimension of Memory Ethics

记忆是考察身份认同问题的重要视角,从前数字时代到数字时代,记忆机制随着技术演进而不断外化,主体的身份认同也随之处于嬗变状态。数字技术重新谋划了记忆,将以数字为表征的记忆进行去遗忘化、超真实化和复魅化,拉大了数字记忆和大脑记忆之间的叙事张力。数字记忆是数字身份认同的逻辑起点,数字记忆的变更使数字身份认同陷入困境,突出表现在他者认同的滞固和僵化、自我认同的迷失与沉沦、寻求认同的挫折与受阻,上述困局共同削弱了主体认同身份的力量和信心。应对身份认同难题需要重返记忆领域,立定于记忆伦理视角,重选数字记忆的内容,重建针对超真实性的批判维度,厘清记忆数据的所有权,方能有效推进数字身份认同的历史课题。

Memory is an important perspective for examining the issue of identity.From the pre-digital era to the digital era,the mechanism of memory has been externalised with the evolution of technology,and the identity of the subject is in a state of transmutation.Digital technology has re-engineered memory,de-forgotten,hyper-realised and re-mystified memory represented by numbers,and widened the narrative tension between digital memory and brain memory.Digital memory is thelogical starting point of digital identity,and thealteration of digital memory puts digital identity in a dificult situation,which is highlighted by the stagnation and rigidity of the identity of the other,the loss and sinking of self-identity,and the frustration and obstruction of seeking identity,which together weaken the strength and confidence of the subject to identify with his/her identity.In order to deal with the dilemma of identity,it is necessary to return to the field of memory,set ourselves in the perspective of memory ethics,reselect the content of digital memory,rebuild the critical dimension of hyper-reality,and clarify the ownership of memory data,so as to effectively promote the historical issue of digital identity.
