On the Core Scope and Self-Consistency of Media Art and Literature.

Media art and literature has formed a new set of rules for textual production and symbolic control out of the logic of communication. With an inherent structure of significance and dimension of temporality, media art and literature not only provide a new form of development for art, but also offer more possibilities for artistic imagination to engage in social life. According to the process of communication, the communication of literature and art via media involves three domains: "media" at the level of production, "story" at the level of content, and "senses" at the level of aesthetics. Due to the interconnection and interaction between these three domains, the inherent "communicative attributes" of media art and literature intensify the tension between literary and artistic autonomy and heteronomy. The artistic identification of media art and literature and their anxiety need to be self-consistent in the reconstruction of artistic knowledge, discursive negotiations, and games.
