Abstract

This paper outlines how the specific constraints of virtual communication technology have stirred new thinking around what kind of research and what knowledge is produced with babies. During Zoom sessions, the 2–4-month-old babies were frequently present but out of shot, or glimpsed as a small limb or movement or sound on the other side of the screen. The babies’ bodies, movements, and sounds exceeded the boundaries of the screen. Through a posthuman lens, presence, time, and agency unravel the Zoom screen as an active participant that interferes with what can happen in a shared present in a liminal space.

与婴儿一起缩放：艰难地完成一份共享礼物

本文概述了虚拟通信技术的具体限制如何激发人们对婴儿进行什么样的研究和产生什么样的知识的新思考。在Zoom会议期间，2-4个月大的婴儿经常出现，但没有拍摄到，或者在屏幕的另一边瞥见一个小肢体、动作或声音。婴儿的身体、动作和声音都超出了屏幕的界限。通过一个后人类的镜头，存在、时间和代理将Zoom屏幕分解为一个积极的参与者，干扰在一个极限空间的共享礼物中可能发生的事情。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
