With the continuous upgrading of mobile phone camera pixels,the wide application of social media,the popularity of Meitu software and the introduction of social functions,technology constantly breaks the reproduction of reality,invades the field of daily aesthetics,changes people’s communication patterns and lifestyles,and creates a new era of beauty social interaction.As a new way of social communication,beauty social interaction has an influence on the psychology and behavior of both parties,and is an important factor in promoting personal and social changes.This study takes the youth as the research object,starts from the perspective of dramaturgy,uses questionnaire surveys,in-depth interviews and participatory observation,and tries to outline the beauty social interaction picture in the mobile Internet era by examining the social practice of young people based on social media platforms such as We Chat Moments,Weibo,Xiaohongshu,etc.And on this basis,we explored the impact of beauty social interaction on young people’s individuals,interpersonal relationships and society.The study found that beauty social interaction is essentially a performance based on the front region presentation,and the social media is a performance stage where the main body completes the interactive performance of different interpersonal circles through photography,picture beautification and communication.The interaction of strong ties circles is dominated by relationship recognition,and the weak ties circles is manifested as the content dominance under the prevention orientation.On a personal level,beauty social interaction strengthens the subject’s self-identity to a certain extent,but it may also cause identification of inaccuracy and ambivalence between oneself and the audience.At the level of social interaction,beauty social interaction has played a role in maintaining and promoting strong ties,and has also promoted the expansion,maintenance and extension of weak ties to a large extent.However,further observations and interviews found that the weak ties established by beauty social interaction may develop into strong ties due to appearance,interest attraction or exchange of ideas and emotions,or it may be transformed into negative ties or lost ties due to the mismatch of the consensus space,background exposure,etc.It can be said that beauty social interaction promotes interpersonal communication among young people to a certain extent,but the random editing and idealization of picture also poses a challenge to social interaction and social authenticity. |
