Abstract

This paper is an attempt to explore semiotic representations of subway space as the urban machine space of local mobility in terms of space, time and place. For this, the second section of the paper reviews the contours of the urban space of mobility in terms of 'machine space', 'non-place' and 'cognitive map'. The third section interprets the sings of 'spatial' and 'temporal' representations of subway space in Daegu, and suggests the implications of the semiotic representations. It is uncovered that various sign-scapes which coexist in the subway space in coordinated or contradictory ways product the space into multiple and complex techno-social spaces. That is, the spatio-temporal representations of the subway space form the space of 'non-place' on the one hand and the space of 'place' on the other hand, and involve the spatialization of 'memory' on the one hand and the spatialization of 'forgetting' on the other hand. Thus, the subway space should be regarded to be not only the space of 'mobility' which people move in and through, but also the space of 'identity' which has effects on the ways for them to see the machine space and its urban space.

본 논문은 국지적 이동성의 도시 기계 공간인 지하철 공간의 기호적 재현을 공간, 시간, 장소의 의미에서 탐구한다. 제2절은 기존 연구에서 제시된 이동성의 도시 공간의 전반적 특징을 '기계 공간', '(비-)장소', '인지 지도'의 개념을 중심으로 검토한다. 제3절은 대구 지하철 공간에 대한 '공간적' 및 '시간적' 재현의 기호들을 해석하고, 그 기호적 재현의 의미를 제시한다. 이를 통해 지하철 공간에 상호 조화적으로 혹은 모순적으로 공존하는 기호 경관들이 그 공간을 다중적, 복합적인 기술-사회 공간으로 생산한다는 것을 밝힌다. 지하철 공간의 공간적-시간적 재현은 한편으로는 '(비-)장소', 다른 한편으로는 '장소'의 공간을 형성하며 또한 한편으로는 '기억', 다른 한편으로는 '망각'의 공간화를 수반한다. 지하철 공간은 사람들이 이동하는 '이동성' 의 공간만이 아니라 기계 및 도시 공간을 바라는 방식에 영향을 주는 '정체성'의 공간으로 생각되어야 한다.
