Beschreibung
This book embarks on an intellectual journey of "discovering infrastructural media," exploring the question of how media constitute the very infrastructure that supports human existence. Situating this inquiry within the long-term transition from industrial society to the digital age, the author successively visits the intellectual nodes of the Chicago School of Sociology, Harold Innis, Lewis Mumford, Marshall McLuhan, and Gilbert Simondon. By tracing the explicit and implicit connections among these theoretical resources, the book gradually reveals a clear trajectory of evolution: how "infrastructure" as a metaphor progressively solidifies within media theory, ultimately becoming isomorphic with the very concept of "media" in the context of digital platforms. In the concluding section, the author critically assesses the translation and theoretical implications of the core term "infrastructure," seeking to transform it into a more powerful analytical lens-one better suited to engaging with the experiential richness of the digital age. Ultimately, the book directs its inquiry toward the fundamental conditions of human existence: how those "foundational things" that have long remained hidden in the background, yet are always present, organize experience, shape action, and quietly define the very way we encounter the world. 本书开启了一场"发现基础设施媒介"的观念史之旅，探问媒介何以构成支撑人类存有的基础设施。作者将这一命题置于从工业社会迈向数字社会的长时段变迁之中，依次造访社会学芝加哥学派、伊尼斯、芒福德、麦克卢汉与西蒙东等思想节点。通过梳理这些理论资源之间或显或隐的关联，逐步呈现出一条清晰的演进脉络：作为隐喻出现的"基础设施"如何在媒介理论中不断凝实，并最终在数字平台的语境中与"媒介"概念本身趋于同构。在此基础上，结语部分对核心术语"infrastructure"的翻译方案与理论负荷进行了审慎评估，以期将其转变为一种更具解释力的分析视角，从而更有效地贴近数字时代的经验沃土。最终，本书指向对人类生存境况的追问：那些长期隐匿于背景之中、却始终在场的"基础性之物"，如何在不被察觉之处组织经验、塑造行动，并悄然界定我们与世界相遇的方式。
