Self Identity Construction Of The Disabled Based On We-media

With the rapid development of the Internet,we-media provides people with channels for virtual survival in various ways,among which vlog provides visualization space for people to record life and spread energy.People with disabilities have long been marginalized by the media.With the advent of the we-media era,people with disabilities have gradually mastered their own right to speak.On the basis of understanding the content and theme of vlogs for people with disabilities,this paper analyzes the video content posted by people with disabilities in Station B from the perspective of multimodal discourse analysis,and analyzes the language and image of vlogs respectively with the help of the evaluation theory and visual discourse theory of multimodal discourse analysis.On this basis,the relationship between multimodal modes is explored.In this way,we can deeply understand how disabled people construct their identities through the we-media and the characteristics of their identities constructed.First of all,the content of vlogs for disabled people mainly focuses on daily life,including intimate relationship,self-narrated growth story,viewpoint sharing,psychological emotion,barrier-free facilities,fan power and so on.Vlog has become one of the best means to express the daily life of people with disabilities.Video space and physical space interact,superimpose and render each other to create a new spatial"illusion".The luster and significance brought by bystanders in cyberspace make disabled people look forward to communication with the outside world and take the initiative to establish contact with others in cyberspace.Vlog is a tool for people with disabilities to vent their emotions and make it possible for them to engage in political dialogue.Secondly,the overall analysis of all kinds of emotion,judgment and appreciation system in the video text shows that disabled people deny the special performance of disability through vlog,trying to express their identification of disabled identity\and challenge the self-norms of mainstream culture.Especially when documenting the attitudes of the surrounding environment towards people with disabilities,disability bloggers actively expose issues such as inadequate accessibility and social exclusion.Disability bloggers do not deliberately create a self-image of disability,but rather create a real disabled identity through daily life.The disabled are no longer the aphasia in the traditional sense,but the promoters of the cause of the disabled.Moreover,through the analysis of video images based on visual discourse theory,it is found that disabled people will not only directly show their damaged bodies,but also indirectly show their disabled identity through auxiliary tools and environmental cues.The beautiful aspects of daily life frequently appear in vlogs.The differential expression of life style and life texture in vlogs makes the identity of disabled bloggers more diversified.Finally,by exploring the relationship between different modes of vlog,this paper finds that the identity construction of disabled people has the characteristics of consistency and multilayer,that is,disabled bloggers not only use language,images and other modes to construct an identity,but also use different modes to show different images,so that the audience can see the different identities of disabled bloggers.The disabled bid farewell to the narrow image of powerless,pathetic and pathetic in the way of self-representation.In a word,by using video logs,the disabled not only give themselves the identity of performers in daily life and participants in Internet survival,but also establish themselves as the "spokesperson" of the disabled body,the defender of the disabled and the disseminator of the disabled culture.The disabled create discourse space for the disabled culture through video log and try to get rid of the disadvantageous position in media culture.The development of technology and the economic benefits brought by video log provide impetus for the identity construction of the disabled,but at the same time,the disabled body is easy to become a consumer product to gain sympathy and traffic under the influence of capital.In the process of identity construction,people with disabilities convey cultural connotations belonging to their own groups to viewers.However,this vulnerable cultural form may be influenced by commercial and other cultures,and content homogenization is a challenge for the production of video content for people with disabilities.Disabled people try to integrate into the Internet environment with the help of"we media",which is not only an active attempt to de-otherize their image,but also a manifestation of their subjective initiative in the process of integrating into society.We must realize that the symbol system in the whole social and cultural context plays a vital role in the process of shaping and transforming the identity of people with disabilities.Therefore,the public,platforms and other parties need to work together to create a good atmosphere for the development of disability culture.At the same time,various systems need to be improved to ensure that the life of disabled people can be smoothly transferred from online to offline,so as to promote the real integration of disabled people into society.
