스마트폰 이용자들의 원격현전 경험에 대한 현상학적 연구 : 비릴리오의 속도론과 ‘감각의 마비’를 중심으로

초록

The purpose of this study is to analyze smartphone users’xperiences by phenomenological methodology. Smartphones enable people to have a diversity of ways to make a relationship. As some recent smartphone applications including ‘Kakao talk’ provide free messaging services, people can exchange messages on a consistent basis, feeling as if they chat. Paul Virilio has studied existence and perception means of human beings based on changes of space and time. The sense of vision is considered as the most primary sense among the five human senses, and so the contemporary society is called ‘Era of image’. Images basically mean visual existence and all kinds of current digital media are accordingly based on the sense of vision. This study mainly focuses on interpreting phenomenon, meaning and changes of daily life resulting from the use of media by analyzing telepresence and sense paralysis of smartphone users on a phenomenological basis. The reason why phenomenological methodology is chosen for this study is to exclude the researcher’s prejudice against the smartphone users’ experience and further draw an intrinsic conclusion of specific experience and phenomena.
