Research On Image Communication Of "Self" In Mobile Social Networks

In the mobile Internet Era, the mobile social network provides a new language environment for people’s self identity construction. And, this "language environment" is a prerequisite of people’s self identity construction. As a common therapy of self identity construction,"image" is involved in the construction of human identity, social relations and social system on a deeper level. And in the process of promoting human socialization, the "image" deepens the socialization degree of itself.This study starts with the mobile social network which is the main position of people’s self identity construction, according to the structure of "construction of social ID——formation of social relationships chain——process of social interaction ——construction of social system", makes people’s mobile social behavior logic as the thread. It reveals that the image participates the development from "construction of people" to "construction of social system". On this basis, we will see a picture of "social revolution of the image" in the field of mobile social networking.According to the logical order of social behavior, the first chapter of the article main introduces the research background and the research Summary. While criticizing the existing research, we put forward the innovation of this paper. The second chapter of this study demonstrates that the mobile internet makes the social connections more frequent, deeper, wider and more extensive. And this provides a realistic basis for the image to participate in people’s self identity construction and the regeneration of social relations. In the third chapter, we demonstrates the role of the image in the social ID system. Social ID is the starting point for virtual social, the mobile social applications makes a "screen integration" for people’s social relationships. And as part of the social ID system, because of its special "meaning field", the image has become an important basis for people to judge their status of social relations. On the other hand, in the interaction of dual structure of "self, the image introduces different social cultural elements into the construction of people’s self identity, so that it completes the connection and communication of different social cultures. The fifth chapter demonstrates the great role of the image in the reproduction of social relations. The development of productivity represented by image communication technology, and the change of production relationship represented by the aesthetic value of the image make the image become the entrance of interpersonal relationships in the mobile social network, and the image becomes the "gatekeeper" of the social relations reproduction. The fourth chapter demonstrates the image has become an important language form in people’s social interaction. From the angles of "body"、 "identity" "language" and "self", we demonstrates that the image is deeply involved in the social production of self from angles of "selfie culture"、 "view of space and time". "Facial expressions package" and "vertical social network". The sixth chapter demonstrates the key role of image in the construction of social system. As the standardization of social relations, the social system will change with the development of people’s social intercourse practice, and the image in social network becomes the key factor of the system reform in different social fields such as economy, politics, culture and so on. In some ways, people’s social network practice becomes a social practice of the image. And, in the development from "construction of people" to "construction of social system", the image has realized a profound social revolution.
