摘要: 后人类研究已经呈现出多种发展方向,借助其在计算机技术中的职能,或许可以绘制出其发展路径。本文认为,计算机媒体对后人类主义的传播及其概念化的过程影响深刻,并专门探讨数字技术对当下书写的重要作用。人类和计算机媒体通过认知集合,可以参与各类互动,也可通过网络来流通信息、阐释和意义。本文选取的分析案例是两部电子文学文本:尼克·蒙特福特和史蒂芬妮·斯特里克兰德创作的《海与船柱之间》,以及约翰内斯·赫尔登和哈坎·琼森创作的《进化》。

Abstract: Posthuman studies have developed in many different directions, which may be charted according to the role they assign to computational technologies. Arguing that computational media have been highly influential in the spread of posthumanism and its conceptualizations, this essay illustrates the importance of digital technologies for writing in the contemporary era. Humans and computational media participate in hybrid interactions through cognitive assemblages, networks through which information, interpretations and meanings circulate. Illustrating these interactions are analyses of two works of electronic literature, Sea and Spar Between by Nick Montford and Stephanie Strickland, and Evolution by Johannes Heldén and Hakan Jonson.

Key words: posthuman, writing, electronic literature, cognitive assemblages
