摘要

後現代的文化現象正述說著精緻藝術在社會中、以及在傳統教育中的邊緣化,而支配著人們過去之認同的主流價値與美感經驗,也逐漸擴大爲視覺文化中的「日常美學」。其中,人們透過媒體經驗所體會之審美感受,亦即影像內涵與觀者意識形態之間的對話,正關係著未來文化教育的走向。換言之,以符號作爲真實之代言,全面性地建構了新一代的世界觀;而網路空間的非物質性交流,大量的虛擬與現實之融混,更造成了影像逐漸在虛擬世界中復活,以及舊有價値內真實性之粉碎。

此種現象正好符應了 Lacan 所謂的客體之「象徵性死亡」;而主體也開始從虛構的影像中形塑出未來的自我,在潛意識的「他者」中透過理想性的認同,重新發現自我並確立主體性的存在。人們常以隱喻性的符號作爲慾望的替身,藉此塡補對於現實傷逝之惆悵;而虛擬偶像便是藉由這種存在著匱乏的潛意識,附身於意象的符號中,透過逆轉的語境返回人們的自我,使其重新達到主體的內在合一。

「他者」的角色在傳統的教育中始終以教師爲客體之扮演,然而本文的探討著重於:當「他者」代之以主體所自發選擇之「擬像」,是否能透過認同的力量與投射的逆反作用,達到主體內化之教育目標?本文嘗試從後現代主義、視覺文化硏究、與精神分析哲學的觀點,亟欲穿越新世代的符號視窗,在現象背後根據人們潛意識的認同觀,開拓藝術教育未來之潛能。

Abstract

The postmodern cultural phenomena depict the marginalization of fine arts in the traditional education and the society; meanwhile, the mainstream value and sense of beauty that dominated our past identities have been widen the scope and become our everyday aesthetic experiences. Among these experiences, the ways that people appreciate arts through the media, namely, the dialogues between the images' connotations and the spectators' ideologies, are influencing and formulating our future education. In another word, the new generations have generally adopted the worldview of regarding the symbolic signs as their new realities. The spiritual interaction and non-material exchange, the fusion of the virtual and the real in the cyberspace have made the images come to live in the virtual world, and accordingly destroyed the 'real' reality.

The above phenomena correspond to Lacan's assertion in terms of "Symbolic Death" of the object. According to Lacan's theory, in order to comfort the lost feelings that derive from a lack of something, people often see parallels between the connotative sign (according to Lacan's description, it is 'the Other') and their inner desires. That is why the virtual idols can live at the images' signs, through which individuals find their own unconsciousness and feel the fulfillment of identities.

Traditionally the school teacher plays the role of 'the Other' when educating their pupils, however, this study tends to explore the idea: When the virtual idol takes the position of 'the Other', can the learners settle their own identities through the inner introspection? The researcher attempts to discuss across the following perspectives: Postmodernism, Visual Culture, and Psychoanalytic Philosophy, aiming at receiving insight into peopled unconsciousness, and hopefully opening up an alternative way to our future art education.
