摘要
本文讨论了与谷歌地球相似、参考或利用谷歌地球资料的文学文本和其他文化实践。其目的是阐释与交互式 "Web 2.0 "相关的新兴空间性形式--"全球化与本地化"(glocalization)的经验。对浏览器游戏《GeoGuessr》和互动音乐视频《The Wilderness Downtown》的初步分析从两个截然相反的出发点探讨了这种空间性:游戏在玩家基本上不了解的地方培养了一种地方感,而音乐视频则将与观众个人记忆有关的地方的图像融入了原本不具个性的艺术作品中。玛丽-达里厄塞克(Marie Darrieussecq)的小说《La mer à l'envers》以及米歇尔-乌尔勒贝克(Michel Houellebecq)的多部作品,包括小说、诗歌和摄影作品,都追溯了这种既被全球通信系统侵蚀又在这些系统中得以重现的地域化体验。
« Certains de nos désirs ont construit cette ville » : Google Earth et glocalisation dans GeoGuessr, Darrieussecq et Houellebecq
This article discusses literary texts and other cultural practices that resemble, refer to, or make use of material from Google Earth. The aim is to elucidate experiences of glocalization (globalization and localization), an emerging form of spatiality that is related to the interactive ‘Web 2.0.’ The initial analysis of the browser game GeoGuessr and the interactive music video ‘The Wilderness Downtown’ explores this spatiality from two opposing starting points: while the game fosters a sense of place within locales that are essentially unknown to the player, the music video integrates images from places that are related to the viewer's personal memories into an otherwise impersonal work of art. This glocalized experience of place, which is both eroded by global systems of communication and recreated within these systems, is then traced in Marie Darrieussecq's novel La mer à l’envers and in several works, including novels, poems, and photographs, by Michel Houellebecq.
