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…
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。
\nMichael Leung shuttles between empirical planes, intellectual horizons and concrete dwellings of diverged spatio-temporal orderings… to assert research that is multi-species, and art that is energy that runs through all realms of living. 「萬物」在梁志剛的漂流路上漸成一張網,少數邊緣的、系統與系統之間的、跨族類的都可以平放或結連。思路無邊,在無政府主義狀態到專制主義運作之間,香港的形影浮現。學術研究如何實踐系際思維?

A long journey, from the 2 years and 7 steps that firewood takes to become useful to us, to a child’s slingshot, and to the thought “We must use the methods available to us, and those I have learnt recently,” Michael Leung’s notes weave an otherly global network of peculiar relevance, entrenched on earth. 由砍樹到可燒菜取暖的柴火,兩年長的七個步驟、梁志剛的飄移體會是:「我們必須善用就在眼前已有的方法,還有剛剛學會的技巧。」創造新網絡,始於在地、留神。

The individuals of a collective do things together, despite their differences. “Each person is a walking directory…” 集。群。體。正因為個別的不同,個人自主受到尊重,所以,能一起前進,共負一軛,沿途照應,你是我的地圖,我是你的另一張地圖。每個人都各自是一個索引目錄。

ON LAND is a series of on-going research notes by doctoral researcher Michael Leung with “Insurrectionary Agricultural Milieux” as his working thesis title. This series will start with a simple meal in the Basque Country in Spain and some noticeably repeating graffiti in Italy… “no TAV!” 梁志剛「在地」手記第一記,由一頓飯開始,英語、法語、西班牙話都好,總能溝通。…不管在那裡,只要留神,你會在交通幹線上的某處看到「no TAV!」。

「我們需要少些完美的電影,但需要多些自由的電影。」Jonas Mekas 這話道出了《微敘事 2019: 在這,仍在,現在》的的根底。” We need less perfect but more free films.” Jonas Mekas’s words articulate the ethos and pathos of “Micro Narrative 2019: Right Here, Left Now, Out There”…

FP writer/editor Winnie Yan reflects on her visit to the Taichung International Animation Festival (13-17 Oct 2017) and finds “concepts and theories” less learned in class. Traversing through works across generations and continents, she asks, “What is it that makes us willing to condense our life into a short string of images?” 忻慧妍問:是什麼令我們願意把自己的生命濃縮成一小段影像呢?
