微观权力视角下数字游戏的时空控制与传播规训

Spatio-temporal Control and Communication Regulation of Digital Games from a Micro-power Perspective

福柯的微观权力理论强调权力存在于日常生活的各个领域,具有分散性和多元性。时间与空间控制是微观权力施行的关键维度,通过对时间的分割、编排和优化,以及对空间的划分、封闭和监控,权力得以深入个体生活。当前,时空控制不仅在物理空间中得以体现,也在虚拟空间中展现其力量。数字游戏尤其是多人在线游戏成为时空控制新场域。数字游戏也成为全景敞视主义在数字时代的媒介实践,玩家在进行自主游戏活动的同时,也被纳入了权力控制的传播规训新场景,存在游戏异化的风险。

Foucault's theory of micro-power emphasizes the decentralized and pluralistic nature of power in all areas of daily life.Time and space control is the key dimension of micro power implementation,through the division,arrangement and optimization of time,and the division,closure and monitoring of space,power can penetrate into individual life.Currently,temporal and spatial control is not only manifested in physical space,but also in virtual space.Digital games,especially multiplayer online games,have become a new field of spatio-temporal control.Digital games have also become the media practice of panopticism in the digital era,and while players engage in autonomous game activities,they are also included in the new scenario of communication regulation of power control,with the risk of game alienation.
