Linda Lai for FP / Fresh videos, in-depth transformation: 3 thoughtfully crafted journeys of the selves 三種深度轉化：三段不一的旅程
19 June 2021 六月十九日. Three video essays on living through time with one’s bodily presence. Tracey Ngai acts out her retrospection. Faith Monsod turns image objects into a passage to the infinite liminal. Pun Tsz-wai’s past resides in media artefacts and urban legends. Three fresh videos completed in May 2021, premiered at Floating Projects. 三個今年五月新鮮出爐的錄像文章。據點首次亮相。記憶是甚麼？我是誰？我的根是甚麼？用身體的實存與行動。魏芷軍演述；潘子懷在都市神話中設置自己；Faith Monsod 的主體盡在可翻開可啄蘑的聲影碎片中。
NGAI Tsz-kwan / A Trip to “There” — an indefinite journey that fuels itself 在記述的軌道上作內部連結：《我在追憶，我在追，我在》
It is perhaps a maker’s natural obsession to narrate oneself, deliberately or not, but through one’s life-time. A Trip to There, Tracey’s graduation thesis, is in a way a monumental push to enter this journey in flux. Embracing all she can, there also always seems to be void to fill. Traces of her having been there are as concrete with a forensic rigor. 每個創作者都曾經 — 以至窮盡一生 — 有意識或不自覺的記述自我。年青藝術創作人魏芷軍很用力的穿過這甬道，滿滿的收穫，卻又惘然若失。實在的卻是用時間和身體鑄出來的創作道途。愛看（錄像）作品的朋友們：這裡，你會讀到一個認真地記下來的寶貴創作歷程。潛進後，我們會對藝術的耕耘多一份敬意嗎？
Faith Monsod / Liminality & the full-stop that never came 虛界裡的游離身份，等待不會來的句號。
Is there an intangible essence that might embody who we are? What positions do memories hold in forming one’s identity? Do our physical bodies suffice in representing us? How much of our sense of self relies on the reflexive process that governs our interpersonal relationships? HK-born Faith Monsod commits her graduation thesis to the quest.「我是誰」可以被理解為無形的實質嗎？例如，記憶能賦予我個人身份嗎？我的身體足以表徵我時誰？我的「自我意識」有多少是由我與別人的變動中的關係所衍生的？出生於香港的 Faith Monsod 用一個21分鐘的畢業作品去回應。
PUN Tsz-wai / If an elephant never forgets, would it also yearn for the past that is gone? 大象可曾忘記？
“Born in the later part of 97, I never got to experience Lai Yuen. For me, it is a place constructed by words and stories. … I would hear bits and pieces about the park and, somehow, it became part of my own childhood, part of my own memory.” (Pun Tsz-wai)「我出生於1997年的下半年，從未經驗過荔園是怎樣的。它是個由別人的字詞和故事合成的地方。一點一滴的聽著，荔園好像就是我自己的童年，是我個人的記憶。」– 潘子懷
Linda Lai / Ocular Oracular: Tentacular thinking & the horses that stroll on the digital flatland 觸角思維：在數碼平地上隨走的馬
The result of the first batch of video essay submissions: Diversity & variety Different speaking positions Empirical sources and geographic/regional variance From the smallest to the grandest // ocular: about vision (seeing) // oracular: prophetic, speaking of the future; delivering opinions in cryptic phrases // 甲骨文是漢字的書體名稱，是若三千四百多年前商朝的人刻在龜甲和獸骨上的文字。已收集的甲骨文單字有四千多個，其中一千多字可以釋讀。但是有許多字的筆畫和偏旁尚未完全定型。這就為這期錄像文章取名為《聲影甲骨文》的取向，強調「甲骨文」的引伸義 （由字的「本義」或「基本義」向相近相似的意義推演延伸至產生的新意義）– 於我們來說，就是繼續從未完全定型的聲、影物理素材和可擴展的論述定義向外、向周邊創造新作業。 What is artistic creativity? What kind […]
