Diffraction, as defined by Karen Barad, functions as a means of reframing corporeal-machinic relations through performance, as made evident through the examination of works by Joan Jonas, Pipolotti Rist, and myself, EL Putnam. Specifically, in this paper, I consider the practices of artists who bring together moving image and performance in a manner that draws attention to the material properties of technology while revealing and informing the relationship of human bodies to this technology. The purpose of this investigation is to explore how art functions as a diffraction apparatus that enables a rethinking of embodied digital experience through performance. Emphasis is placed on corporeal interactions with digital moving image technologies, drawing from Gilbert Simondon's understanding of the technical object. His philosophical approach entwines humanity with its technical objects and environment, blurring boundaries of subject and object, being and thing, artificial and natural, as he redefines these concepts from a position of technological co-existence. Three works in particular are analysed: the mirror room from Joan Jonas's 2015 Venice Biennale exhibiton “They came to us without a word,” Pippolotti Rist's Pixel Forest, and my 2017 performance Ember. Through this process, I investigate how bodies can interrupt images and such interruptions enable a re-framing of the body's relationship to technology. Emphasis in all these works is placed on the shared materiality of the body and digital technology through performance; an entangled relationship that is made evident through diffraction.

卡伦·巴拉德（Karen Barad）所定义的衍射是通过表演来重新构筑人与机器关系的一种手段，这一点从对琼·乔纳斯（Joan Jonas），皮波洛蒂·里斯特（Pipolotti Rist）和我本人EL普特南（EL Putnam）的研究中可以看出。具体来说，在本文中，我考虑了艺术家的实践，这些艺术家将运动图像和表演结合在一起，以引起人们对技术的物质属性的关注，同时揭示并告知人体与该技术的关系。这项研究的目的是探索艺术如何作为衍射设备发挥作用，从而可以通过演奏重新思考所体现的数字体验。重点放在与吉尔伯特·西蒙登（Gilbert Simondon）对技术对象的理解上，与数字运动图像技术之间的重要互动。他的哲学方法通过技术对象和环境缠绕人类，模糊了主体和对象，人工和自然的存在与事物的界限，因为他从技术共存的位置重新定义了这些概念。尤其分析了三件作品：琼·乔纳斯（Joan Jonas）在2015年威尼斯双年展的展览中的镜房“他们一言不发地来到我们身边”，皮波洛蒂·里斯特（Pippolotti Rist）Pixel Forest和我2017年的表现Ember。通过这个过程，我研究了身体如何打断图像，这种打断使身体与技术之间的关系重新框架化。所有这些作品都将重点放在通过表现来分享身体和数字技术的共同重要性上。通过衍射可以看出纠缠的关系。
