媒體公(近)用實踐之探討: 以臺北市有線電視公用頻道節目《臺北市民故事館》為例 / 『Taipei Stories』: an experiment and case study of the public access to cable TV

1993年有線電視法通過,有線電視逐漸取代無線電視,成為台灣主要的傳播媒介。有線電視因其纜線鋪設與經營形態等特性,成為自然壟斷的地方媒體;因此,法律上視其為「準公用事業」,並賦予回饋地方的義務,此為有線電視公用頻道出現的原因。

公用頻道的主要價值是落實媒體近用權,然而受到申播法規、業者經營意願與民眾製作影音內容技術門檻等限制,公用頻道在台灣的成效不彰。近年來新傳播科技興起,影音網站快速成為民眾慣用的近用平台,公用頻道存續意義乃受挑戰。本研究之目的即在探討數位匯流趨勢下,公用頻道的未來。研究發現,影音網站雖能儲存播放大量的民眾影片,但其本質仍屬「社群媒體」,與公用頻道作為社區媒體的功能不同。同時,影音網站的搜尋機制與使用者習慣也影響影片的曝光度,並不能提供一視同仁的公平近用。因此,本文認為,有線電視公用頻道的地方性與公平近用的經營理念,仍是公用頻道未來發展的應屬方向。

據此,本研究之創作實踐即以五十支「臺北市民故事館」短片,試驗公用頻道落實地方媒體近用,提升社區意識的可能製作方式。此短片透過口述歷史與數位自述之技巧,提高居民分享社區記憶、建立社區認同、參與社區事務,提升社區公益的意願,以作為公用頻道未來節目企劃製作的參考。 / In Taiwan, the previously prohibited cable television operators were legalized after the Cable Television Law was established in 1993. Like in many countries, cable television has gradually replaced network television as the primary media in Taiwan. The specific cable installation and its business model make cable television a monopolizing media in local communities. According to Cable Television Law, cable television is regarded as a “prospective public utility,” and one of its obligations is to serve the public. Therefore, the cable television public access channel was launched.

The core value of public access channel is to grant the Right of Media Access. However, the practice of public access channel in Taiwan is hampered due to multiple restrictions such as broadcast application law, regulations, business management and the technical thresholds of audiovisual content production. In recent years, many websites, such as YouTube and youKU, have rapidly become the preferred access platform for the public. The necessity of public access channel is being questioned and challenged.

Some studies showed that while audio and video websites can store and play a large number of access videos, their essence remains as “social media” rather than “community media,” such as public access channel. Furthermore, the audio video websites’ search mechanism and the users’ habits can both affect the exposure of the videos and impair the fair access of media.

This study, supplemented with 50 related projects, intends to discuss the future development of public access channel under digital convergence. Through a year’s productions and surveys, the author concludes that the unique local relevance and the importance of providing fair access should be the emphasis of the future development of public access channel.

The creative projects of this study, broadcasted on public access channel, present the public the right to access local media and enhance the community awareness. These projects, digital programs of personal life experiences, were designed for telling Taipei Stories. By employing oral history and digital storytelling techniques, these projects intend to encourage the residents share their community memories, enhance community identity, participate community affairs, and further improve the community charity. In addition, these projects can serve as references for planning and producing programs for public access channel in the future.
