腹語系：微敘思考 

“The Ventriloquists” … Thinking Narratively

The Ventriloquists… Thinking Narratively  |  4-19 July 2020 @ Floating Projects, JCCAC L3-06D, Shek Kip Mei

 A sight-and-sound assemblage of 63 works by students from SM2105 “Narrative Strategies and Aesthetics of Time-based Media,” a core course for BACM students. We want conversations.

 63個作品合體為星群，微聲合洪亮的協奏，不分主副:

夢式敘事，線性的歧路花園。影像／圖像蒙太奇，似動畫非動畫，另類邏輯。

圖像數據分析名作，地圖、樂譜、故事板通通挪用。

創意媒體學院文學士學生誠意邀請。

63 works form a constellation of sight-and-sound surfaces,

a carnivalesque clash of countenances,

from BA students, the School of Creative Media.

Video dreamworks, thought paths as montage sequences, visual analysis of well-known moving image works as pictograms, generative creative writing…

世界 Each work is a World, … 

Meteors arriving from afar in our realm of visibility 

A cluster of unknown histories…

一個作品一個世界

發聲 Voices? 

We must be heard — our tones, dictions and manners of speech, 

… mediated, augmented, subdued, enigmatized

We must be heard, even if our lips don’t move.

腹語系發聲練習。唇不動，心動，思維舞動。
 

好好記住 To remember, to be remembered…
 

The proof of our existence…, a documentary impulse

留一個記號，證明我來過。

夢 Dreams. 

To dream? Rather, to speak of our dreams…

發夢還須說夢。

陳述 Narratively speaking… 

We are all reasoning, from step to step, from details to details…

層層推理。逐步走，慢慢說，用豐盈的小節。
