【 摘 要 】
This article is a study of Black Mirror S02E01, “Be Right Back”, which focuses on the dialogue between the main protagonists: a woman (Martha) and the avatar of her deceased husband (Ash). The Turing Test that unfolds between Martha and the entity named Ash-bot is one that hinges on affects; it illustrates (and questions) the ways in which a digital TV series can become the interface for philosophical thought experiments concerning the posthuman. How does this episode of the Black Mirror franchise cast the mind/body problem, as well as the relationship between human and posthuman? We will see how the aesthetics and narrative dynamics of the TV episode, playing out on a screen that is both interface and dystopian “mirror”, allow the viewers to engage in a thought experiment.
