The Cognitive Turn and Modern Logic of"Body Reproduction"in the Era of Intelligent Media:Reflection on the Theory of Media Compensation
Emerging media technologies have driven the development of bodily practices,from face-to-face physical presence to virtual ritual presence.From the perspective of the body,the mechanism of mu-tual compensation of media enriches the expression of the form of physical practice,on the one hand,media technology promotes the body to obtain the freedom of physical departure,greatly improves the flexibility and efficiency of practice,and shows the body's ability to skillfully control the medium.On the other hand,the evolution of media is gradually penetrating into the depiction of the inside of the body,and while presenting the evolution trend of humanization,the abnormal representation of the body being shaped by the medium is becoming more and more obvious.Undoubtedly,the relationship between the body and technology is caught in the dilemma of dichotomy,but it does not mean that we can only stay in the thinking of binary opposition.In this regard,we need to get rid of the outdated understanding of the relationship between the body and technology,and re-examine the relationship between the body and technology based on the new situation of harmonious coexistence between man and machine.
