The Ventriloquists 12. Intermedia dialogues with experimental literature: invisible cities 看不見的城市，看得見的後設城市藍圖

A pictogram is a form of knowledge; a pictogram that reconstructs another existing work is the stretching of the epistemological potential of a work. In the pictogram exercises presented at "The Ventriloquists ... Thinking Narratively," the reading and re-reading of Calvino's The Invisible Cities combines the methods of music scoring, cartography, story-boarding and chronology-making, each with its own conceptual emphasis in presenting pictures of realities. Here, one pictogram offers glimpse of these concepts. 解構式的圖形是知識的具體表現；重塑已存在的作品的圖形是對現有作品的知識能量的擴展，同時也是對班雅明的「作者作為生產者」的想法的一種回應，關注個別的作如何站立於一個時代的技術生產當中。這裡以一個創作為例。
