【摘要】 论文借助媒介符号学的视角考察中国古代的屏风，讨论其媒介生成逻辑与符号表意机制。屏风作为媒介符号的连续体，其符用与广义“媒介”功能具有历时性演化脉络，无不凭靠其自身的物质障碍性来承载。屏风在古代人际传播实践中延长了时间刻度，增幅了空间距离，交往因此被屏风隔断和悬置，但与此同时被传播的意义得以创生。此种“障碍”的媒介性使意义的生成和传播发生转换，此前被隔断的交往实践，在意义的补余中变得通达和自洽。借助自身的障碍性，屏风的媒介表意内嵌着“去媒介”和“再媒介”的层次逻辑，铭刻着物质与符号的递归与转化。而此种“有隔有通”的本土化传播观念，借以“障碍”挑战西方媒介缩减时空，起到连接作用的本体论宣言。通过检视屏风这堵东方之“墙”,论文试图丰富媒介思维的谱系，而这显然已有足够基础去讨论一种不同历史性质、不同当下智能技术高速发展的含蓄、慢节奏在地媒介体验和在地媒介知识。更多还原

【Abstract】 This article explores the role of the screen in ancient China through the lens of media semiotics,focusing on the logic of media formation and the mechanisms of symbolic representation.As a continuum of media-signs,the screen’s pragmatic functions and broadly defined role as a“medium”reveal a chronological evolution intertwined with material barriers.The screen extended temporal scales and spatial distances in ancient interpersonal communication,disrupting and suspending interactions while simultaneously enabling the creation and exchange of meaning.The“barrier”function of the screen transformed the production and dissemination of meaning,making previously isolated interaction practices accessible and self-referential through a process of meaning replenishment.This mediating role embodies the hierarchical logic of“de-mediation”and“remediation,”highlighting the recursive transformation between materiality and symbolic representation.By adopting a localized perspective of communication characterized by being“separated and connected,”this study challenges the Western ontological view that barriers primarily reduce time and space to facilitate connection.Examining the screen as an Oriental“wall,”this paper enriches the genealogy of media thought,offering a basis for exploring distinct,subtle,and slower-paced local media experiences and knowledge,in contrast to the rapid advancements of contemporary intelligent technologies.更多还原
