摘要
杂糅渗透到传播的各个领域:纪录片也不例外。一个例子是法医建筑公司(FA)的《死亡之船》(The Left to Die Boat),这是一部讲述2011年63名难民在利比亚水域漂流时如何丧生的视听作品。《死亡之舟》将纪录片技术与数据分析和可视化相结合,揭露悲剧,改变移民政策,维持法庭案件。本文以文献资料和文献研究为基础,考察了FA在六部文献中提出的方法论杂交。问题是:FA是如何杂交的?这种杂交的结果是什么?今天的杂交是什么?该分析将这些纪录片的特征与功能和结果联系起来,提供了一种可以在本研究之外使用的分类法。研究结果表明,激进主义正在采取多维形式,模糊了纪录片、数据科学和艺术之间的界限,以寻求影响力。
Data and documentaries: Methodological hybridizations in activism
Hybridization permeates all fields of communication: documentaries are no exception. One example is The Left-to-Die Boat by Forensic Architecture (FA), an audio-visual account of how 63 refugees lost their lives in 2011 when their ship was adrift in the waters of Libya. The Left-to-Die Boat combines documentary techniques with data analysis and visualizations to expose a tragedy, change migration policies and sustain court cases. Based on critical data and documentary studies, this article inspects the methodological hybridization proposed by FA in six documentaries. The questions are: how does FA hybridize? What are the outcomes of this hybridization? What is hybridization today? The analysis links these documentaries’ characteristics with functions and outcomes, offering a taxonomy that can be employed beyond this study. The findings indicate that activism is taking multidimensional forms, blurring the boundaries separating documentaries, data science and art in search of impact.
