Winnie Yan / 專有名詞－以《局部失明》作結的自白 Localized Blindness seals off Yan’s Video Manifesto
Localized Blindness (2019-2020) is Winnie Yan's most recently completed video work, for Manifesto 2. She spotlit the backstage of the work's making process, performing the complex world of thoughts and emotions traversing within. 忻慧妍的《局部失明》含蓄如密碼佈陣，定睛創作的後台是另一種風景。與其說是心情和動機上的剖白，不如說是現在進行式的隨著她的思緒找發聲的調韻。聽一個人所訴之白跟看著一個人訴白，是兩個不同的經驗，都源自記錄的衝動。
Natalie Chao / Are We All Wilderness? – camera, image, ‘you’ and the becoming 我們都是荒蕪之地
In our recent video Manifesto 2 Artists’ Workshops, Natalie A. Chao said the camera was there to protect herself on the many street events in Hong Kong since 2019. She questioned the camera’s invasive nature and wonder how her camera thinks. Textualizing images she “gleaned” in writing is then a necessary part of the imaging event. Here is a set of notes Natalie wrote while reflecting on a film she made, Are We All Wilderness? (2019), revised this year.
Dorothy Wong / 站在「錄像宣言一」與「錄像宣言二」的邊界上：族群參與改變了創作座標 Crossing the Border: videography re-oriented since community engagement
2018-2019年，黃加頌以 art collective o!sland成員的身份參與台灣森人藝駐計劃，到台灣太魯閤族的社區生活，後被鳳甲美術館邀請到台北北投社進行關於平埔族的計劃。黃加頌為「錄像宣言一」（2018）的策劃成員之一。她道出創作歷程上的改變：「2016－2017 錄像和影像為技巧訓練、自我察覺、從遙遠處觀看世界的練習。2017－2019 錄像為與他人、社區和世界連結的觀看點、載體和回應。」Dorothy Wong's artist's residency with Taiwan's mountain communities changed her relation with videography.

Manifesto 2 artists have started to meet on-line to examine the what, why and how of their videographic practices as ways to remember.

Linda Lai / We need less perfect but more free films 2019: 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"...
Zach McLane / 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?
