Yuk HUI / 百年危機（下）One Hundred Years of Crisis (part 2)
Co-immunity is never going to realize as long as the logic of nationalism fueled by xenophobia reigns. How do we act out? 1919年前後困擾歐洲的虛無主義，因著技術加速和全球化被徹底擴散，縮減了全球自身的行為能力，內部的矛盾邏輯變成無法化解。儘管人類仍然希望繼續相信人類的不朽，全球身體免疫系統的危機自2001年 9/11 世貿受襲事件始起，「引發了一種作為永久的例外狀態的免疫反應。」2019年的新冠狀病毒，把「邊界」引回正朝一體化的全球。單一技術主義和文化失效，共同免疫體不再可能。信息戰的內在性變得明顯了，民族國家必須捍衛其物理邊界。100年了，以「現代民族國家和信息戰塑造的虛擬身份」為基調，我們如何擺脫單一技術經濟文化的惡性競爭？共同免疫體真的難以實現？具體的團結如何發生？
Yuk HUI / 百年危機（上）One Hundred Years of Crisis (part 1)
許煜博士的「百年危機」勾畫了1919年一次大戰前後到2019年新冠狀病毒全球擴散這100間，如何逐步暴露了全球自體免疫系統的崩壞，單一技術文化頻臨瓦解，把國界重新領回至日益一體化的全球。上下兩部之上。Yuk Hui traces the world’s last 100 years of crisis, from the Nietzschean tragic nothing to the Coronavirus outbreak in 2019 which has triggered a series of immunological reactions, bringing back to the global front-stage the notion and reality of borders. Part 1 of his essay…
Vanessa Tsai / 不麻煩的麻煩 Saving trouble, that’s trouble…
The sight of a wild animal turned convenient pet reminded Vanessa Tsai a questionable utilitarian attitude towards animals, and thus also self-justification in other areas of life. 蔡季妙目睹一隻狐獴成了寵物，驚覺實用功利價值為先的態度，灌滿了日常生活，扭曲了道德的邏輯性。

兩位參與「錄像宣言2」計劃的藝術家，在工作坊裡分享了一篇感動過他們的文章 — RAQS Media Collective 的 Monica Narula 於 2012年寫的「如何做夜更的藝術家：藝術學院 [給21世紀的提案]」。為了快點分享給更多的藝術創作者，黎肖嫻以局部引述和中文翻譯去展示，並加以短論，望引來更多討論。Two Manifesto 2 artists share an article of impact on them in an artist’s workshop session — “How to be an artist by night.

Ryan Chung / let the mind speak 2: Do You See What I See? 「思維自說自話」2 – 你看見我所看見的嗎？
“Hopefully that’s not a boy’s answer.” Ryan Chung, graduated last summer with a Bachelor of Art & Science degree, allowed himself to follow what came by with utmost self-guarded curiosity. He is now a primary school teacher! In the closed laboratory of making the child for his future, he runs into a familiar boxing situation. 九個月不長也不短，卻足夠一個好奇而樂於隨機而伺的大學新鮮畢業生勘測四周。鍾樹仁沒想過會當上小學教師；面對孩童被模塑的場景，總是看到了多一點自己。例如：怎樣的答案才算是男孩的答案？何來這樣的問題？
