《原格破裂》為何動畫？ | 夏季 | 據點 “Elemental Dynamite” kicks off this summer
《原格破裂 – 動畫的互媒實驗綜覽》| 夏季 | 據點 Elemental Dynamite: Research on Intermedia Practices in Animated Pictures | Summer Series | Floating Project [即時發佈 01-01c]【請傳遞】 動畫的天地有多大多闊？動畫世界可伸可展，是一種呼吸，是大制度的宿影。這是「據點。句點」群體的《原格破裂 – 動畫的互媒實驗綜覽》的宣言，於此時此刻的香港的至誠分享。8月29日起，第一波將在香港藝術中心的古天樂影院展開，繼後以連串放映、對談、表演等，讓觀眾參與我們好奇心驅使的旅程。 動畫是人類對攝影和手繪的進一步想像；是19世紀末活動映畫的原始衝動的初稿。動畫的溯源牽動著很多別的故事：文學的故事、工具和科技的故事、藝術發展的整體故事，人文的生存，還有創作勞動與社會經濟政治的關係。動畫與孩童世界接近，因為鼓勵自由想像、奔放的表達，卻絕不只是兒童的娛樂或教育工具的代號。動畫天馬行空地說故事，同樣記述不可紀錄的生存狀態。動畫強於現實的「再再現」，也強於抓住眼看不見的日常肌理和節奏，把存在的微音擴大，可知可感。動畫或可跳出框格、騰空，而我們就穿越在其中？我們都需要動畫。瞭解動畫，瞭解創作者的委身、堅持、掙扎，還有我們社會文化資源的調配的一鱗半爪。這就是《原格破裂》。 《原格破裂》今年夏季第一波節目誠邀了韓國首爾國際實驗電影錄像節(EXiS) 節目總監李幸俊，策劃一連串三場放映及一場延伸影像表演，當中展示一系列以菲林創作的影像作品，包括已故日本實驗動畫大師相原信洋整段活躍創作生涯中的十八部作品 (8月29日《第三眼－相原信洋 作品選》)，EXiS 精選歷屆與實驗動畫有關的當代韓國創作 (8月30日《地域實驗…
最壞的時代 最好的時代
To FP writer Lai Wai-leung, what has played out in HK's public space in June and July is no isolated drama. 歷史的緣由，這個地方的人口從來埋藏著一條思想鴻溝 ...。
Home-Making 2: Marking Space 間房要不要牆? 2 – 創造空間
7 artists get out of the moving image frame and turn their thoughts on home into a spatial dialogue on site, as part of "Have a Balanced Diet 3: Home Making, a project by FP member Ding Cheuk-laam.
Home-Making: do we need walls for our habitat? 間房要不要牆? – 日常飲像影食(3)
In “Home Making” (“Have a Balanced Diet” #3, 2019.07.12-26) FP member Ding Cheuk-laam and 14 other artists/researchers extend the quest for experimentation as a general attitude of life to home-making. What kind of habitats do we seek to create? How have we actually constructed our home via artistic imagination?「 間房要不要牆? 」是FP成員丁卓藍發起的《日常飲像影食》系列的第3部，連同14為創作和研究者繼續堅持實驗（性）作為一種整體的生活態度，並以房子這個熟悉而具體的日常空間為前題，看如何因著創作的行動，人的主體與媒體技術的互相啟發，「家」、房子就成了發聲運動的起點。
We need less perfect but more free films: why do they think videography matters?
「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"...

哥多華當代美術中心創作紀錄：定睛眼前，凝視過去，觀望宇宙 Documenting C3A Cordoba: site-specific views of the invisible and the potential
完成「據點。句點」第一屆西班牙哥多華C3A駐場藝術家計劃的Jessica Fu回顧一個月的體驗，再次覺悟她我的特定環境裝置作品往往是個引導體，領觀眾超越可見作品的本身朝向為可見的未來，應對數據爆發的時代的無助感。Jessica Fu completed her month-long residency in Cordoba's C3A, FP's first edition of artist's residency at Centro de Arte Contemporáneo, Cordoba, Spain. She understands her site-specific installations are often visible vehicles that lead their beholder to the unknown visible of the future and, personally, her response to a sense of helplessness living in a milieu of exploding data yet kept esoteric by authorities.
How might a beginning be an opening?
Zach McLane "returns" to FP with a new video work and expanded notes after his last and first visit to Hong Kong in September 2018. In renewed confidence of his own language, in words or images, Zach turned a strip of trashed 35mm film found in a backyard creek into the preserved evidence of an unknown yet concrete history. A documentary impulse of his pushed physical marks, scratches and patterning into the materialization of an absence now surfacing as perceivable forms and motions.
柔軟的齒輪 往 臺中國際動畫影展 2018 札記 Notes on TIAF 2018 (Taichung International Animation Festival)
FP Writer and Artist Winnie Yan's glimpses of the TIAF 2018 highlights how seeing differently in animation is rooted in the technology that evolves around and generates the art form. To some animation artists, the single frame, as opposed to the shot in live action film/video, is the basic unit of experimentation, or that all innovative animation works are intermedia in nature. Either way, the persistence of vision makes our eyes unique apparatus connecting to the world of the unknown imaginary.
Crossing the Distance Between Reading and Speaking
Zach McLane and Susan Lin, two fresh graduates from USC, visited the Floating Projects and activities associated with FP members all over Hong Kong a weekend in late September. Zach returns with a "dedication" to mark the brief moment of his trip which seems the new beginning of many things to come. And what about videography?
