The Ventriloquists 06. From Dreamwork to Dream Narrative, 6 videos 夢境。夢作業。夢作為敘事法。夢作為藝術語言。

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。

The Ventriloquists 05. The Hand that moves the artist, 2 pictograms on forced conformity 《腹語系》之隻手遮天。兩個解構操控與失去自主的數據圖像

The Ventriloquists 05. The Hand that moves the artist, 2 pictograms on forced conformity 《腹語系》之隻手遮天。兩個解構操控與失去自主的數據圖像

The Hand comes in from everywhere. It interrupts, commands, dominates…; it is omnipresent, irresistible, almighty, dressed and decorated nonetheless mercilessly brutal.. Such is the condition of an artist who wakes up one morning to find his normal routine totally ruled invalid. 木偶藝術小子一覺醒來,伸伸懶腰又期待著新一天的開始。怎知道一夜間世界變透了。一隻無名的手,由溫柔禮待到強權粗暴,無處不在,無孔不入。

The Ventriloquists 04. Thought paths inside the Theatre Box, 12 montage sequences 十二串個性不同的思緒共享一個微型的小黑盒劇場,各有嗓音,合起來是洪流。

Twelve personal thought paths share the same space within a theatre box, each a unique stream of murmurs, together a torrent of existential quests. 十二串個性不同的思緒共享一個微型的小黑盒劇場,各有嗓音,合起來是洪流。態度的堅持,存在的疑問,主體的尋溯,無名渴求,生老病死。

The Ventriloquists 01. Description as Storytelling…ask the objects, by Jake Wong 死物不死:描述也是敘述(黃汛一)

“The Ventriloquists…Thinking Narratively” (4-17 July 2020), begins with the on-line version of Jake Wong’s response to generative literature. | Generative Art –> Creative writing –> A story “generated” by surroundings –> “the window, the door, the cobble and the knife” | To Jake, what he offers is a framework — an initial state of a writing game that is endless with infinite iterations as long as we keep writing. Welcome to join. 《腹語系。微敘思考》啟動的第一個作品是創作性的文字。作者黃汛一的思路如下:衍生性藝術 –> 創作性文字 –> 一個因環境而衍生的故事 –> 「窗。門。卵石。刀。」| 黃汛一說與其說這是完整的作品,不如把它看成一個寫作方法的種子示範,為誘更多的迭代,寫之不盡。
