FP writer, Emilie Choi’s analysis continues on the question of art labor in Hong Kong. In part 2 of her report, she asks, “what should an artists’ union do?” 據點成員蔡倩怡進一步思考藝術勞動的光景四年來沒有甚麼變動,且客觀環境越來越嚴峻。她問:「工會該如何保障藝術家?」
FP writer, Emilie Choi, former journalist for Ming Pao Weekly’s cultural page, recalls an investigative feature she did four years ago on the question of art labor in Hong Kong, and is dismayed that not much has advanced other than the many growing aggravations in the city. With a new introduction, she puts back in the spotlight realities we may have forgotten. 《「錄像宣言」的延伸閱讀:藝術勞工的景況:做個夜更的藝術家?》在「據點一杯茶」網上發表後,據點成員蔡倩怡不禁記起四年前她還是記者時所做過的專題訪問,驀然發覺時間過去了,藝術勞動的光景沒有甚麼變動,且客觀環境越來越嚴峻。她很想舊事重提,面對現實。這裡是翻新後的發表。
FPC member and writer Emilie Choi’s “Multi-window” is a series of notes on on-line moving image exhibitions occurring during the COVID-19 pandemic. In profiling these activities, she seeks to preserve observable details of the individual works for thorough discussion and research in future.「實驗視窗系列:疫情下的觀影筆記」將發表據點成員及寫作人蔡倩怡在網絡上所觀看的影像節目,嘗試從這些經驗中勾勒出流動影像在網絡上流轉的版圖與現象,為往後作出更具啟發性的討論。
In “Home Making” (“Have a Balanced Diet” #3, 2019.07.12-26) FP member Ding Cheuk-laam and 14 other artists/researchers extend the quest for experimentation as a general attitude of life to home-making. What kind of habitats do we seek to create? How have we actually constructed our home via artistic imagination?「 間房要不要牆? 」是FP成員丁卓藍發起的《日常飲像影食》系列的第3部,連同14為創作和研究者繼續堅持實驗(性)作為一種整體的生活態度,並以房子這個熟悉而具體的日常空間為前題,看如何因著創作的行動,人的主體與媒體技術的互相啟發,「家」、房子就成了發聲運動的起點。
Here we have recorded thoughts that could only be preserved and shared in words, from FPC members, including those just arriving and departing, between FP 1.0 and FP 2.0. 「據點。句點」1.0 與 2.0 之間,新成員、舊成員、離開了的成員,都用上了時間去勾畫這片據點。
