大屠杀是现代性的决定性灾难。现在,四分之三个多世纪过去了,数字时代的沉浸式互动技术正在戏剧性地重塑我们对那场种族灭绝的记忆。虚拟大屠杀记忆首次全面描述了一个独特的历史时刻,二十一世纪的数字文化与鲜活的大屠杀记忆的边缘相遇。这本书考虑了美国和欧洲的博物馆、档案馆、企业和教育组织正在开发的一系列项目,包括交互式视频证词、虚拟现实电影、增强现实应用程序、博物馆装置和在线展览。这本开创性的书借鉴了一个原始的概念框架,其中包括连接记忆、重写证词和幸存者夏洛特·德尔博首次应用于证词写作的“真实性”概念,认为虚拟大屠杀记忆的价值——也就是说它的真实性——最终将取决于它在一系列复杂的主体立场中建立的联系。这些人包括从相对安全的位置遭遇大屠杀记忆的“新旁观者”,到遭受创伤的受害者,他们极端的身体和心理经历使得沟通变得如此困难。
The Holocaust was the defining cataclysm of modernity. Now, more than three quarters of a century later, the immersive, interactive technologies of the digital age are dramatically refashioning our memory of that genocide. Virtual Holocaust Memory offers the first comprehensive account of a unique historical juncture, as twenty-first century digital culture meets the edge of living Holocaust memory. The book considers a range of projects that are being developed by museums, archives, businesses, and educational organizations in the USA and Europe, including interactive video testimony, Virtual Reality films, Augmented Reality apps, museum installations, and online exhibitions. Drawing on an original conceptual framework that incorporates connective memory, palimpsestic testimony, and a notion of'truthfulness' first applied to testimonial writing by the survivor Charlotte Delbo, this groundbreaking book argues that the value of virtual Holocaust memory--that is to say its truthfulness--will ultimately come to rest on the connections that it establishes across a complex set of subject positions. These range from'new bystanders', who encounter Holocaust memory from a position of relative safety, to the traumatized victims whose extreme physical and psychological experiences made communicating so difficult in the first place.
