意念七 speakophone

Concept:

In our daily perception, Amplified speaker and

microphone are so familiarized with their function

we speak in front of the microphone, listen to the

amplifier. Thus, we try to twist this situation

changing the amplifier to a microphone, a

microphone to amplifier, trying to play with the

defamiliarization and conception.

Inspiration:

Until now, we didn’t find any installation

like this. So we think is it quite fun if we see a

installation like this and try to play with it.

意念五

這是我們brainstorm final project的其中一個意
念 -風鈴燈，風鈴除了被風吹發出聲響外，我還
希望它會發光(平時我們吹，光是會滅)。所以便
有了這個構想。

意念六

意念來自幾乎所有樹木的自由都被

限制了，他們被石屎、鐵欄圍著，

於我來說，是受傷了。除了是我們

直接肆意砍伐他們，他們的自由生

長也被我們限制了。

樹，受傷了

我會選擇用蹦帶把樹木的根部, 枝都

包裹著。然後把紅油淋在上面，想告

訴每個人，它真的受傷了。這不是自

打嘴巴嗎?明明說要保護，卻又包蹦

帶和淋油，這是充滿諷刺性的。

然而這件work並不是想人們保護樹木，
而是當人以藝術之名去保護什麼什麼，
其實想question的是，做完之完之後不
也是自打嘴巴 - 傷害了他們嗎?這也是

自己對自己的question。

嘉道理農場

黏滿粒粒綿花的巨石作舞台，這場景與
農場環境形成格格不入的感覺，有機的
棉花與無機的岩石形成一剛一柔的一個
對比。

我們還用綿花包裹膠樽、鋁罐、維他奶紙
盒這被棄置的物品循環再用，用純白色的
棉花包裹著，被丟棄的卻成為這兒的一份
子，是諷刺是自嘲呢

Final Project - flanuer in sheung Wan

“The city is the realization of that ancient
dream of humanity, the labyrinth. It is this
reality to which the Flâneur, without knowing
it devotes himself’
------- Benjamin


Intension/Inspiration

I have been living in Hong Kong Sha Tin since 1997.
However, I have never been to Hong Kong Island for
more than 3 times even though Hong Kong is a very
small place. Not to say walking around without any
purpose, whenever I go, I go for purpose. And, in Sha
Tin, you want entertainments, there are entertainments.
You want foods, there are foods. You want clothes,
there are clothes. Name any commodities, Sha Tin gets
it. Therefore, I need not to go to other places. In this
case, I have no chance/no motivation to go these
places. Therefore, I would like to choose a strange
place to Hang around.


Why Sheung Wan?
One day, I went to Western District with my friends
fromSheung Wan by tram (Ding Ding). This is the
first time that I went to Western District. I am so
fascinated by the experience of taking the Ding
Ding(This is my first time taking Ding Ding). I can
recognize this is Hong Kong Island because they
are always represented as a local tradition or
collective memory on TV. Thus, in my impression,
Sheung Wan is place which somehow signifies
Hong Kong traditional culture and development.
I know Hoi Mei Street, Mo Lau Street etc. They can
be googled with a lot of pictures and texts. But I
have never seen that before. Are they all about
Sheung Wan? Is Sheung Wan really only about
Ding Ding and Hoi Mei Street? As an outsider, I
want to know my representation of Sheung Wan.
What do these place mean to me?

Stairs
I was trying to hanging around to know more
about his city, by image, by shops, by observing
the activities of people, by listening to the
conversation. Stair is a good place to see how
they live since stairs are the only roads for them
to move up and down. And many shops are
situated along the two sides of the staris.


Unconscious- identity finding

I realize that somehow I want to have some kind
of confirmation of identity of being a HongKongese
through knowing more about this place which has
a lot of so called collective memory. Through identity
with these “collective memory”(eg. Wee Lee Street),
I hope I can share memory with most of the Hong
Kong people.

Although I have been there for many times, I still think
I am so detached. So I made a little work response/
represent this experience.

A wooden box, with a TV inside, is to recreate
an optical toy. In the very very very beginning
the cinema, people need to go to “cinema”
and insert coin to a machine to watch the “movie”.
The “movie” inside is document some noble/wealthy
people’s lives that they have never experienced.
It is such a gaze towards those lives which so
separated and detached with them.

The words I wrote on the box is my automatic
writing and my feeling in Flanuer in Sheung Wan.
It is a mess. Like what in my mind.

wooden box.

意念四 keyboard

鍵盤上的鍵的排序是特定的，這種鍵盤的排列
方式其實是從過去的打字機鍵盤沿襲下來的。
這種排法是延續打字機的設計，主要是為了避
免當時打字機按鍵的機械桿在打字時會互相碰
撞導致故障而設計的。但對於大部份人來講，
一旦他們記熟了，打慣了，他們便不需要看著
鍵盤打字，所以我想試，把那些鍵胡亂調。會
發什麼事呢？人打字會受到影響嗎？會因為看
到鍵盤上新的排序而照新鍵打嗎（雖然他們是
非常熟悉鍵的位置）？
