摘要： 媒介技术正在重塑人类社会，新的网络生态对政治、经济、文化以及日常生活等领域的影响日渐深刻，5G、6G加速到来所引发的变革更有可能溢出传统媒介理论的视野与框架。为深入研究媒介技术与文明转型之间的深刻逻辑关系，厘清媒介技术创新在人文社会科学研究范式转变中的地位和效用，回应社会转型和治理的殷切需要，2020年1月，《探索与争鸣》编辑部与苏州大学凤凰传媒学院共同举办了“媒介技术与文明转型”学术研讨会，试图探究新媒介环境下人类文明的嬗变路径与未来图景。
胡泳教授认为，数字化革命远未结束，人类需要解决的数字社会基本问题复杂而棘手。因此，他呼唤启蒙2.0的到来，期待社会共同致力于建设一种更具自我意识，同时又深深嵌入社会的自治模式。陈龙教授认为，新技术文化资本颠覆了传统意义上的文化资本概念，成为一种社会新宠。新的叙事模式开始登上历史舞台，算法成为衡量传播力的重要因素，将推动媒介生产效能的大幅提升。李春雷教授指出，以网络和新媒体技术为代表的媒介技术重塑着时空观，不仅为现代文明拓展了新的平台和载体，还在真正意义上构建了一套有效的传播系统，甚至形成了一套相对独立的价值系统。孙玮教授认为，人类文明已进入“媒介化”生存阶段，技术发展已经使得媒介全面侵入主体，使媒介成为人们的基本存在方式，长久以来外化于人类的媒介正在不断地嵌入人类自身，人类将成为最终的媒介。彭兰教授指出，新的人－机关系或许会使今天以人为主导的信息文明演化为人与机器共同作用下的“人－机文明”。这种新的文明既可能延续与丰富人类文明，也可能在某些方面偏离人类文明的既有轨道，进而酝酿风险。技术将为人、机器以及文明的发展带来巨大的不确定性。陈霖教授认为，媒介技术促成的图像生产和传播正在使所有文化都成为视觉文化，人类文明呈现出高度视觉化的特征。媒介技术作用于视觉的过程，本身即是文明的产物，而其间出现的矛盾冲突，则折射出文明的困境，构成了文明的视觉压力。曾一果教授审视了网民大众借助“新的自我技术”塑造和建构多样化“自我形象”的现象，指出“新的自我技术”在拓展和丰富自我形象的同时，亦使人们的自我认同出现严重问题，启蒙意义上的同一性自我走向终结，算法技术操控下形成的只是“数字化自我”。张丽军教授认为，面对新智媒时代人类可能丧失生命自由意志的危机，应充分彰显艺术的价值，以此超越技术框架并获得生命解放，在充分认识、理解并思考新智媒文化的基础上，创造出与新智媒技术对话的新时代艺术作品。张艳梅教授阐释了后媒介时代的伦理隐喻，指出它既是人类想象世界的一种方法，也是人类自我认知的一种可能，人类应该对人性伦理始终保持谨慎的信任。

Abstract:

 Media technology is reshaping human society, and the new network ecology has a profound impact on politics, economy, culture and daily life. In January 2020, Exploration and Free Views jointly with Suzhou University held an academic seminar on “Media Technology and Civilization Transformation” to explore the evolution path and future prospect of human civilization under the new media environment. 　　

Professor Hu Yong calls for the arrival of enlightenment 2.0 and expects the society to work together to build a more self-conscious and deeply embedded self-government model. Professor Chen Long believes that the new narrative mode has stepped onto the stage of history, and algorithm has become an important factor to measure the communication power, which will promote the ef?ciency of media production. Professor Li Chunlei points out that the media technology represented by network and new media technology reshapes the concept of time and space，and even forms a relatively independent value system. Professor Sun Wei believes that human civilization has entered the stage of “media”

 existence, and the development of technology has made media invade the main body in an all-round way, and human beings will become the ultimate media. Professor Peng Lan points out that the new manmachine relationship may make today’s human oriented information civilization evolve into a “humanmachine civilization”. This new civilization may not only continue and enrich human civilization, but also brew risks. Professor Chen Lin believes that the process of media technology acting on vision itself is the product of civilization, and the conflicts between them reflect the dilemma of civilization and constitute the visual pressure of civilization. Professor Zeng Yiguo points out that “new self-technology”
 not only expands and enriches self-image, but also causes serious problems in people’s self-identity. Under the control of algorithm technology, only “digital self” is formed. Professor Zhang Lijun calls for the creation of new era works of art dialogue with new intelligent media technology on the basis of fully understanding and thinking about the new intelligent media culture. Professor Zhang Yanmei explains the ethical metaphor in the post media era, pointing out that it is not only a way for human beings to imagine the world, but also a possibility for human beings to realize themselves.
