The quantity and speed of information transmission on the Internet, according to "Moore's Law" exponential growth with an 18-month cycle.
Humans are not only users of the Internet, but also contributors. The Internet has collected human wisdom, connected human consciousness, and gradually penetrated the gaps in human existence, changing the way humans view and understand the world, and also the way of life of human beings.
Accidentally, I downloaded Google and saved more than 70,000 search records in the more than ten years since I started using the search engine. The troubles in first love, the curiosity and exploration of sex, the hesitation in choosing a major, the anxiety about the political situation... Or maybe I just want to find a pirated video website, a translation of English words, or a restaurant... These thousands of thoughts have ever come to me, without leakage and modification, have been transformed into a series of objective and rational raw data.
I read it carefully with novelty, as if I was reading a exchange diary between me and the Internet that I had unconsciously written for more than ten years. While the reasons for most search keywords are no longer clear, I'm still amused or embarrassed by certain keywords.
As I read more and more private troubles or some evil thoughts that once flashed through my mind that I had never mentioned to any close relatives or friends. My feelings gradually changed from novelty at first glance to nakedness eventually. It turned out that I took the initiative to talk to the Internet for more than ten years, but I didn't know it, everything happened so naturally and freely.
I ask all my doubts to the Internet without reservation, and the Internet is like an all-knowing wise man who knows all the answers. I should be grateful, but these secretly kept records seem to be taking nude photos of my heart at any time. However, the same thing obviously doesn't just happen to me, the vast majority of Internet users should have the same interaction with the Internet, and it's happening continuously.
I'm not sure if I should feel angry. My absolute reliance on the Internet can also be read between the search keywords. Without the Internet I don't know how to complete my master's thesis, and I may not be able to learn the various techniques needed to make art works by myself, and I may often get lost..., I have long forgotten how to live without the Internet. Even for me as a digital native, As a digital native, I've never even lived like this. Is this some kind of Stockholm Syndrome? Or is it a mental rejection of cyborg inserts? I can't be sure, I'm totally messed up.
The Internet has always given the impression of being public, but its relationship with humans seems to be more private than imagined. In the series work of "Inter net", I completely exposed all the search records in the public space without any selection. I wanted to seek answers by "making myself public". If I tell everyone what I tell the Internet, what will my feeling about the Internet become?
資訊在網際網路(Internet)上傳遞的數量與速度,依循戈登.摩爾(Gordon Moore)所提出的「摩爾定律」以18個月為週期指數成長。
人類不僅是網際網路的取用者,同時也是貢獻者。網際網絡搜羅了人類智慧,串接人類意識,逐漸浸透人類生存的隙縫,改變人類觀看世界、理解世界的方式,也改變了人類的生活型態。
偶然之中,我發現Google留存了我開始使用搜尋引擎至今的十幾年間,多達七萬多筆的搜尋紀錄。
情竇初開時的煩惱、對於性的好奇與探索、選擇科系的徬徨、對政治情勢的焦慮......,又或者只是想找一個盜版網站、一個英文單字的翻譯,或一間小吃店......,這些曾經的千頭萬緒,滴水不漏、不經修飾地化作一筆筆客觀理性的原始資料(raw data)。
我滿懷著新奇仔細閱讀,像是在閱讀著一本與網際網路無意識書寫了十幾年的交換日記。雖然不少關鍵字的搜尋原因早已模糊,但仍然不時會對某些關鍵字會心一笑或尷尬一陣。
讀到越來越多從未與任何至親好友提及過的私密煩惱,又或是某個曾經閃過的邪惡念頭時,我的感受漸漸從一開始的新奇轉變為赤裸。原來我主動對網際網路傾訴了十幾年卻渾然不知,一切發生得如此自然自在。
我毫無保留地對網際網路提出所有疑惑,網際網路也像個無所不知的智者,知無不言的答覆。理應感激涕零,但這些被偷偷留下來的紀錄,卻好像隨時在偷拍我內心的裸照。然而,同樣的事情顯然不只發生於我的身上,絕大多數的網際網路使用者,應該都跟網際網路有著同樣的互動,而且正在持續發生。
我不確定是否該感到生氣,因為我對網際網路的絕對依賴,同時也在字裡行間一覽無遺。如果沒有網路網路,不知道該如何完成碩士論文,可能沒有辦法自學到做作品需要用到的各種技術,我可能會常常迷路......,我早已忘了如何在沒有網際網路的情況下生活,甚至對於身為數位原住民(Digital native)的我來說,也許根本不曾經歷過這種生活。這難道是種斯德哥爾摩症候群?抑或是一種對於賽博格嵌入物的心裡排斥?我無法確定,只感覺到五味雜陳。
網際網路一直給人一種「公開」的印象,但他與人之間的關係,似乎又比想像中私密。在《Inter net》這件作品中,我把所有的搜尋紀錄依據不同的空間特性,不經挑選地全然揭露在公共空間中。我想藉由把我自己「公諸於世」來尋求解答。如果我把我告訴網際網路的事情,也都告訴大家了,那麼我對網際網路的感覺會變成什麼?
