在过去十年中，无人机战争的急剧增长意味着平民生活中出现了一种新的战争图像：通过无人机相机看到的景象。因此，无人机不仅仅是一种武器，也是一种代表冲突的新兴媒介。这篇文章探讨了这些意象在公共和流行文化中被选择、解释、构建和使用的方式。除了探索如何在更大的战争图像历史中寻找这些实践之外，还确定了“无人机视觉”的两个突出特征：在无人机战争中促进消费者互动和国内空间的军事化。
The dramatic growth of drone warfare in the last decade has meant the arrival of a new kind of war imagery in civilian life: the view through the drone camera. As such, the drone is not simply a weapon, but also an emerging medium for representing conflict. This article explores the ways this imagery has been selected, interpreted, framed and put to use in public and popular culture. In addition to exploring how these practices of looking fit within the larger history of war imagery, two prominent features of ‘drone vision’ are identified: the promotion of consumer interactivity in the drone war and the militarising of domestic space.
