  An online art gallery is understood as a web platform that displays art. In the past months, many galleries have turned to online display to overcome the social gathering ban, and major art markets such as Art Basel launched online viewing rooms to sustain transaction and preserve potential buyers. D-Normal/V-Essay (Dn/Ve) envisions a rather different use of the digital platforms -- not as a tentative measure to cope with COVID-19, but to augment the virtual world as a platform with rich potentials and distinct affordances, as we have learned from our coping measures during the lock-down days. On the practical level, Dn/Ve aims at (1) developing the many possibilities of the accessible format of the video essay, (2) with which we build a virtual community whose creative and intellectual exchange forms (3) a virtual environment, at once a magazine-gallery and an archive, which allows revisits, expandable, and with retaining value. In the spirit of participation and injecting vitality, Dn/Ve takes advantage of the accumulated knowledge, experience and resources at Floating Projects (2015 - now). An on-line gallery-archive to add on to FP's physical gathering place at JCCAC and Floating Teatime, our quality writing platform, would ensure better and more comprehensive services to the general public in future. The Arts Go Digital award from ADC/Jockey Club is a timely asset to enable us to update our on-line infrastructures. 在線展覽顧名思義以互聯網去展示作品。過去半年,我們看見不少藝廊以此對策新肺炎而來的限聚令,也看見巴塞爾藝術展以網上展廳去維繫向收藏家展示作品的基本服務,令藝術市場的交易活動可持續。《平地數碼》這個計劃超越了臨時安排和補救式的在線想像,願景是以網絡數據時代的特色為本去重新想像常規活動,與既往的藝文活動模式更全面的配合與結合。從過去幾個對「限聚令」作出應對的自身的體驗出發,吸收兩個已撥款而尚在進行中的藝發局計劃  -- 「錄像宣言2:紀錄的衝動」和「原格破裂」-- 我們設想數碼方法如何在信念交流、藝術生產、傳播、衍生和開拓幾方面作肯定性的實驗和實踐。 《平地數碼》有三個重點。(1)以平易近人的「錄像文章」為焦點,建立一個具包容性的群體,(2)鼓勵發表,善用現成的媒體和個別的資源,開創新的表述語言,(3)於可發展、再用、延伸的在線虛擬環境,集合展館與存庫的功用,持續更生。 以「據點」為基地,以「參與性藝術」為座標的前提下,實驗人黎肖嫻對《平地數碼》錄像文章雜誌作出初步的構想,提案獲得撥款後,連同「據點。句點」藝術群體成員共謀發展的策略和細節。社群參與和灌注活力的精神的實踐,由分享「據點」累積的知識、經驗和資源為起步。藝術發展局與賽馬會這次的資助,確實解決了我們的「共謀經濟」模式所未能應付的 網上平台的「基建」問題。這次的申請,40% 用作建立在線虛擬發表和存續的平台,目的是可以往前走更多更長遠的路,讓我們的實驗和創作意欲可以更深入與人分享。我們的宗旨一如既往,據點成員憑「歸零」而「盡力善用」的態度;我們強調活在當下的價值。  

Long-term projection:

FP's Dn/Ve anticipates to serve: (1) future art and cultural historians and (2) trans-regional curators and study creative energies in Hong Kong and to glean great works that may have fallen into the crevices between established art genres and classifications. 長遠來說,這個計劃為了誰?一,為未來寫藝術史和文化史的人;二,為全球的策展人,相信我們建議的這樣的平台會是日後跨國策展人資料搜索的重要來源。
