虛你人生 大陸的yy直播平台，讓年輕人可以在虛擬世界大放異彩傳錢，的確有幾個角色成功，並且見識到直播平台的生態面，主播、屌絲和土豪，看似勵志的紀錄片，但也出現了類似之前百萬Youtuber爆紅實驗的光鮮亮麗下的面像，只可惜感覺無法更深入‧
M010_虛你人生 2022.05.31 【簡介】 在網紅與直播主爆炸的時代，這部電影讓觀眾看到直播主在直播時間之外所遭遇的困境，還有直播平台如何讓直播主之間相互競爭，最終使直播主、土豪和粉絲都陷入一種瘋狂的撒錢競賽。大家都困在這個虛擬世界之中，直播平台上的排行延伸到現實世界，成為人們的自我價值與認同來源，也形成龐大的產業鏈。 . 【感想】 這是經由敏迪 @mindiworldnews 推薦，在Giloo紀實影音平台 @giloo.ist 上觀賞的電影，謝謝讓我看到很棒的電影。 看完電影後，我第一個想法就是：這是一場集體的瘋狂。眾人徹徹底底地沉迷在網路空間，並舉行著一場又一場的狂歡。因為網路實在是太虛幻了，所以必須依靠「錢」這種實際的東西，來平衡那飄忽的感覺。我總覺得狂歡之後的空虛感更加吞噬人心，不論是對直播主，或是對粉絲而言。然後再因那份空虛，所以想繼續下一場狂歡。這有點類似傳播學者巴赫金的狂歡理論，大眾在網路上丟棄一切束縛，所有標準向慾望看齊，網民的言語更加銳利，網紅的世代交替也愈加頻繁。網路就好像一個巨大的黑洞，在人們還未意識到之前，把所有人吃乾抹淨。有辦法能逃離這黑洞的魔爪嗎？大概就只有自覺和錢有能力使人逃離吧。有自覺，就能有意識地遠離和看清一切；而有錢，就算刷了再多禮物，只要家底夠厚，那些都不算什麼。 這或許也是各平台和公司的目的。為了將用戶緊緊綁在平台上，他們運用各種手段使用戶深深陷入而無法自拔。直播主為了留住粉絲，繼續感受到被粉絲喜愛，而使盡各種手段，越聳動的內容才能吸引更多人，因此極端的內容層出不窮。粉絲則在網路世界中找到慰藉，逃避現實中的不順。大家都困住了，在這網路世界中，不論是不想出去或不能出去。我常想，這除了是因為網路的沉癮性高，是否和現代社會的極端化也有關呢？現實社會在各方面都向極端發展，整體的流動變得不順暢，造成更多的不滿，使得更極端的言論出現，如此循環往復。 阻止這種趨勢似乎愈發不可能，必然的結果就近在眼前。但，真的就此無解了嗎？會不會有黑天鵝存在，而使人們重新思考一切的意義？從歷史來看，人類總是在各方勢力間不斷拉扯，然後在其中找到自己的出路。我想，這次應該也會一樣吧。 . #Burnink_電影 #Burnink_Movie @burnink_98 #虛你人生 #PeoplesRepublicofDesire #吳皓 #HaoWu #中國 #China #直播 #LiveStream #這些國家那些事 #TheseCountriesThoseThings #敏迪選讀 #mindiworldnews #Giloo紀實影音 #紀錄片
Film is one of the fastest ways to get to know a country. In just an hour or so, a movie can take you through its streets, speak its language, and tell its stories from the inside out. Don’t worry—we’re not here to dive into complex geopolitical debates. In this film program, you’ll meet a wild rock band raising chaos in North Korea, a group of Danish men who really love to drink, and witness the everyday madness of the Russian “warrior people” through dashcam footage. These films don’t aim to explain entire nations. Instead, they focus on the little things—the strange, funny, messy bits of daily life. And isn’t it exactly these small moments that, together, make up the kaleidoscope of a country?
Let us imagine the future through multiple perspectives: quantum physics and human consciousness, robots and humans, love and relationships, gene banks and the apocalypse, social networks and surveillance, nuclear fusion and artificial suns, climate crisis and geopolitics, eugenics, and extraterrestrial intelligence. Though this program is titled The Future Is Near, perhaps the future has already arrived. The more important question is: Are we ready?
In a society as warped as ours, who has the right to call themselves "normal"? Six teenage boys, locked inside their New York apartment for years, understand the world through their collection of 5,000 movies. An invisible army of overworked gig workers scrubs your social media feeds clean—out of sight, out of mind. Three adult women, posing as underage girls online, expose over 2,000 suspected child predators. In the U.S., a teen kills another—over a pair of rare, resold Air Jordans. Elsewhere, a group of people worship Satan—not to spread evil, but to resist the suffocating grip of far-right religious politics. So—are these people “normal”? Are they not? And who gets to decide what “normal” even means? Giloo presents 10 documentaries that explore the lives of those often labeled as “abnormal”—but who, in their own ways, might just be the most honest reflections of our times.
Behind the Chinese Communist Party’s aggressive rhetoric and military intimidation toward the free world lies a darker truth—one that is hidden beneath the polished image of national “rise” under Xi Jinping’s leadership. In this heavily surveilled state behind a modern-day iron curtain, the people themselves have become mere stepping stones in the dictator’s grand imperial fantasy. It’s not only the marginalized who are oppressed, but anyone who dares to long for their inalienable rights—for freedom, dignity, and truth. Giloo presents a selection of independent documentaries from China, guiding you into a reality both dazzling and dark. Inside the borders built by walls, beware the quiet yearning of the soul—for freedom cannot be killed, only contained.
In 2019, the impact of COVID-19 fueled a surge in virtual concepts, sparking waves of discussion around the metaverse and beyond. But is technological advancement truly humanity's only path forward? When the physical body is no longer essential, where do we go from here? The balance between the virtual and the real is a question the entire world must confront—together.
