This article explores the temporality of liveness on Facebook Live through the analytical lens of downtime. Downtime is conceptualized here as multiscale: downtime exists in between the micro action and inaction of everyday life, but also in larger episodes of personal and health crises that reorient the body toward technologies for instantaneous replenishment of meaning and activity. Living through downtime with mobile technology enables the experience of oscillation between liveness as simultaneity and liveness as instantaneity. By juxtaposing time-as-algorithmic against time-as-lived through the livestreaming practices of diện chẩn, an emergent unregulated therapeutic method, I show how different enactments of liveness on Facebook Live recalibrate downtime so that the body can reconfigure its being-in-time. The temporal reverberation of downtime and liveness creates an alternative temporal space wherein social practices that are shunned by the temporal structures of institution and society can retune and continue to thrive at the margin of these structures and at the central of the everyday.

本文通过分析停机时间来探讨Facebook Live的实时性。在这里，停机时间被概念化为多尺度的：停机时间存在于日常生活的微观行动与无为之间，但也存在于较大的个人和健康危机事件中，这些危机使身体重新适应即时补充意义和活动的技术。通过移动技术度过停机时间，可以让人们同时体验到活力与瞬间之间的震撼。通过diệnchẩn的实时流媒体处理，将时间算法与生存时间并置，一种新兴的不受管制的治疗方法，我展示了Facebook Live上不同的生动表现如何重新校准停机时间，以便身体可以重新配置其实时性。停工和生活的时间性混响创造了一个替代性的时间性空间，在这种时间性空间中，被制度和社会的时间结构所回避的社会实践可以在这些结构的边缘和日常生活的中心重新调整并继续蓬勃发展。
