Study On The Evolution Of Audio Publications In China

Since the birth of mankind,sound has been performing the function of transmitting information,communicating,spreading culture and providing education.With the birth of sound reproducing technology,sound can breakthrough time and space and become replicable and storable,as well as be widely transmitted over great distances.After the emergence of audio publications(such as audiobooks)reading is no longer only a single form of visual reading,with the interaction between people and sound symbols creating a new category: audio publications(such as audiobooks;technology distinct from the previous written publications).The purpose of this paper is to catalogue and analyze the development and evolution of audio publications in China,to reveal the causes of this development of audio publications,and to explore the reasons for the evolution and changes of audio publications,to ultimately construct a new framework for audio publication development,so as to provide reference for the future development of audio publications in China.In order to understand the process of the evolution of audio publications in China,this paper analyzes and discusses matters through two different perspectives: first,mapping the development of the technology in chronological order,this paper will explore the mechanical period,the analog period and the digital period,examining audio publications that are created,along with their publishers,and the evolution of different sound recording functions along the way.Throughout this section,the evolution of audio publications is catalogued and compared,highlighting continuities and differences between the different technologies and audio publications developed in China.Secondly,combined with educational technology and media ecology related theories as the foundation,according to the "technology-environment-influence" line of argument,the evolution of audio publications within the context of technology,environment and society is analysed.From the perspective of educational technology,starting with people's multi-dimensional perception,we construct a new framework for the future development of audio publications in China.This research is divided into six chapters.The first three chapter comprise the foundational parts of the inquiry exploring the evolution of China's audio publications.Next,the fourth chapter looks at the causes of the evolution of China's audio publications.The following chapter is the theoretical analysis of the evolution of China's audio publications,with the final sixth chapter laying out a new path for the future development of China's audio publications.The first chapter is the evolution of sound record technology in China.This chapter takes sound reproduction and communication technology as the core,and expounds on the evolution,characteristics and application and influence of audio publications technology.From the birth of the gramophone,the use of scientific and technological means to record,store and transmit sound,audio publications have no longer depended on human and human face-to-face transmission,but with the help of science and technology have been able to show that sound production can follow a recordable and replicable new pattern.Understanding this progression,the use of audio publication technology has progressed from mass production to popularization to personalization throughout its process of change.The second chapter investigates the transformation and characteristics of the publishers(producers)of audio publications in China.China's audio publishing industry has undergone two major transformations,after the transformation of publishers and publishers for the production of audio publication content brought about a huge expansion.High quality and varied audio publications resources can effectively support integrate and support the use of audiobooks to achieve end in many different fields,such as language,literature,education and science.This learning environment presents richer audio publication resources and more realistic audio publication learning situation than past situations,so that readers can more actively explore learning interests,stimulate learning motivation,and finally make learning effects sustainable,as well as improve the ability to master and use knowledge,and cultivate the development of the human mind.The third chapter looks at new uses and functions of audio publications in China.From entertainment such as musical opera content in the period of mechanical technology,to the promotion of school education and continuing education brought by the rich audiobooks in the period of analog technology,to the mass listening of audiobook content in the period of digital technology,the diversity and personalization of listening channels,it's clear that the development of audiobooks meets thedevelopment needs of human beings.Audio publications play an important role in information dissemination,emotional transmission,exchange of ideas,elimination of knowledge gap,promotion of reading effect,promotion of the improvement of cultural literacy of the whole people and the progress of social civilization,and provides the possibility for the development of human physical and mental health and the realization of lifelong learning.The fourth chapter examines the causes of the evolution audio publications in China.The development and evolution of audio publications in China cannot be separated from the development of science and technology,the influence of the expression of sound art,the return of auditory culture and the change of social environment.Advantages and advanced technology are the decisive factors in the evolution of audio publications in China,so that the sound recording technology presents diversified and personalized characteristics,and the digital audio publication content can convey deeper information than the sound itself,working almost like a magical force.The artistic expression of sound goes deep into people's emotions,communicates with its strong emotion,accompanies artistic sensibility,and communicates with a profound level of human nature.The artistic expression of sound then returns to the auditory culture and reshapes people's auditory aesthetics,imagines the whiteness of the space and whispers and lets people return to the tribal life space and enjoy the "fireplace conversations" that appeal to people in a deep way.All of these positive attributions of audio publications,along with the importance of sound for human cognition and communication,have helped promote the robust and sustain development of the audio publications industry.The fifth chapter applies theoretical lenses to understand the true importance and key details across the evolution of audio publications.This chapter applies the relevant concepts of educational technology and media ecology,takes the "media technology-learning environment-learners" of educational technology,and combines the "media technology-media environment-people and society" of media ecology as the basis for research.The reasons for the evolution of audio publication in China are explored across three aspects: the process of development and evolution,the audio-publication media technology show the trend of humanization evolution,the audio-publication communication environment has experienced two changes from the primary oral period to the secondary oral period(as described by Walter J.Ong),the offline one-way spread to the two-way spread of the line,and the audio publications audience extends from theelite minority to mainstream society.Listening habits change substantially throughout the history owing to these factors.Chapter 6 outlines a productive path forward for the future development of audio publications in China.With educational technology as the perspective,based on humanity's auditory perception,which integrates visual perception and the multi-sensory system,a new path for the development of multi-dimensional audio publications is outlined based on four aspects: media technology,read environment,reading resources and audio publications application.In the face of the influence of sound reproduction technology on audio publications and the interference of sound symbols on the transmission of text meaning,the attitude of "humanity is one" and "listening and reading one" to look at audio publications,and the sound,technology and text will be integrated with each other to promote each other.With the advent of the age of 5G technology,audio publications will be more deeply embedded into these various scenarios,for people in society to experience a more intelligent learning environment.This paper contends that the history and development of audio publications in China is foremostly due to the progression of science and technology,the demands of readers and changes in environment.Altogether,these causes for the evolution of audio publications in China point the way forward for the future development of multi-dimensional audio publications,which are set to be the new stage in the development of audio publications in China.
