Michael Leung / ON LAND 04: Intergalactic Thinking 「在地」四：系際思維
Michael 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？
Linda Lai / PUSH – scary stories 「推」：怕怕故事
Push: Scary Stories is a story about story-telling in Linda Lai's childhood, her land of fear and fascination co-created with her Grandma before bedtime. 「推」，推開了神秘的門，領進魔幻之地。《推：怕怕故事》推開了作者童年時候床頭說書的外婆伴著編織的幻想世界。這門，不過是眾多要推開的門的一道。

Hector Rodriguez / Framing Diseases 04: War Frame, Bio-militaristic Metaphors… What’s beyond? 建構疾病 四:「戰役框架」、「生物軍國主義」以外可有別的疾病圖像？
A "war frame" and the use of militaristic metaphors have dominated the way we understand diseases. We are caught up in a bio-militarist vocabulary by which our knowledge of diseases is filtered through notions of besiege, battles, resistance, combat and so on. Are there other ways to frame diseases? In #04 of his extended reading report, Rodriguez raises the question and gathers some alternative views ... 除了「戰役」的框架外，還有別的嗎？有沒有別的「隱喻」？是時候認真檢視「醫學人文學科」的發展，超越「生物軍國主義」對我們在認知疾病上的限制。羅海德繼續他的一連串讀書報告：如何述說 (narrativize) 疾病是尋求出路的起步。疾病作為敘事，有關疾病的敘事，敘事作為疾病，三者並行。
Vennes Cheng / THINK-PAD series 02: History and archive are constructed 「書寫作為思考」筆記系列二：歷史及檔案皆為構成物
Reality once again confronts us with the fallacy that "history" is a subject that concerns only those studying the humanities. Researcher Vennes Cheng takes us back to a more basic question that deems history the literacy of contemporary global citizen, asking: what is the difference between historical reality and lived reality? 歷史是唸文科的人的事這想法或許有急切矯正的必要。歷史進入我們的日常知識領域，間接導引個人和社群行動的取決，或成為在位者下令的理據。退後一步，鄭秀慧問：歷史的現實與活在當下的現實有何不同？這是當代公民的基本道德素養罷。

Michael Leung / ON LAND 03: One Day We Won’t Need to Sweat (and Add Oil) 「在地」三：到那天，我們不再需要流汗（請加油）
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。
Linda Lai / A certain state of mind… poems from automatic writing (1) 不假思索 – 喃喃自語（一）
Push! And a door will open. Push is a special charm to Linda Lai, a magic word she has used for several of her artworks, "PUSH Push - automatism" shares glimpses of her mind-scape, an enigmatic zone with strides of montage and poetry.「推」，推開了神秘的門，領進魔幻之地。《推。推。不假思索》推開了作者某幾個時刻的紛繁思潮世界。斷、折，又絲連。是詩與蒙太奇的步履。
