Although the scale of the information economy and the impact of digital media on social life in China today could pale that of any other country, the story of their emergence in the post-Mao sociopolitical environment remains untold. Information Fantasies offers a revisionist account of the emergence of the “information society,” arguing that it was not determined by the technology of digitization alone but developed out of a set of techno-cultural imaginations and practices that arrived alongside postsocialism.
Anticipating discussions on information surveillance, data collection, and precarious labor conditions today, Xiao Liu goes far beyond the current scholarship on internet and digital culture in China, questioning the limits of current new-media theory and history, while also salvaging postsocialism from the persistent Cold War structure of knowledge production.
Ranging over forgotten science fiction, unjustly neglected films, corporeal practices such as qigong, scientific journals, advertising, and cybernetic theories, Information Fantasies constructs an alternate genealogy of digital and information imaginaries—one that will change how we look at the development of the postsocialist world and the emergence of digital technologies.
Xiao Liu is assistant professor of East Asian studies at McGill University.
信息技術的中國史前史。
評分曆史視角、文本分析、媒體研究結閤的很好。彼時西方世界AI研究興起,中國的“新時期”亦踏歌而來。錢學森、氣功研究、人工智能、科幻小說及至今天的AI、cloud computing、crowdsourcing,當初的妙想在科技上一步步實現,而在日常生活的政治上一步步化為泡影甚至反諷。

評分信息技術的中國史前史。
評分本書的論點主要分為兩部分:1. 80年代無處不在的mediation,包括信息話語的爆炸,媒介邏輯的跨媒介再現,控製論對認知、曆史書寫、電影再現的入侵;2.這種mediation是precarious的:信息技術時常會失靈,更重要的是,這種mediation的曆史條件也是precarious的,隨著中國擁抱全球資本主義,社會進入一種往者不可諫、來者尚不可追的邊緣狀態,型塑mediation同時也被媒介再現捕捉。總的來說第1部分比較成功,第二部分時有牽強或流於錶麵的感覺。
