Category: FieldNotes 考察中
研究生的考察範圍、指向，是世界的未來的形骸，新知識的風向計，對現今時代的把脈。起家立說之前，往往是轉瞬即逝的珍寶 — 直覺、對問題的「肚腹」般的反應。我們要好好留著。完整的辯說，碎片，靈光一閃，大小故事，所見所聞，理念層次的穿線連點結網…。「在地」、「尋檔」、「書寫作為思考」等陸續有來。A network of ideas from doctoral researchers whose tentative thinking may value as much as well formed writings. Hear their voices. Michael Leung’s “ON LAND,” Vennes Cheng’s “THINK-PAD,” Lim Yeon-kyung’s “ACTING OUT” and more are arrivals…
