蔡俊希《把迷戀說成夢》。十個夢。十種心情。十種慾望。十種閱讀。Choi Chun Hei Jacky‘s ten successive rounds of automatic writing and subsequent modifications results in a readable work, in all of which the writer was strolling on the street alone at night, contemplating the mysteries of life — the complete series of the 10-dream series in Chinese…
Dreams are a place for the human brain’s sub- and unconscious; they are a space beyond the boundaries of reality and the everyday, but are the vibrant forces impregnating several works in The Ventriloquists 2, as Elizabeth Biek introduces them. 「夢」是我們的潛意識和下意識的彰顯,繪形繪聲,卻與現實和日常不同領域。這裡所介紹的幾個「腹語系」作品看來甚為日常,夢的流量卻溢滿、迴旋。

In the 2nd of the 5-part series, Linda Lai discusses videography as soundings, ways to voice out as crafted thought paths, the materiality of remembering as micro narratives.《我們的錄像宣言2》於「據點一杯茶」5次連載的第2篇:黎肖嫻開宗明義把錄像書寫看為一種創作人的活的型態和取向,以至於對深度轉化的渴求。如是,對錄像書寫的認知遠超狹義的藝術操守和理所當然的影像美學。這次,她提出了錄像書寫作為「發聲」的藝術的面向。「記住」,必須透過「思路」的展現,而這就是錄像的「微」敘事性格。
Five Ventriloquists artists show their dreamwork created with their own audio-visual language. It all lies in the crevices, fractures and gaps between shots, between locations, between actions… 夢作業是人存在的無形證據,實在處在夢象與夢象之間,在夾縫中,在虛處,在結合之間的斷裂處,是眾數的斷層。《腹語系》創作者也參與構築夢的敘事語法。
