瘋子?夢境?真實?這是〈羅宋湯〉! 〈阿鳳〉是關於一個妓女和一個小男孩的故事。〈COMPANY POLICY〉是在歐洲某處關於官僚體制及戰爭的諷刺短片。〈猜猜我是 誰?〉和緬甸黑道跟娼妓有關。然後我們有更多酷炫的動畫片，而且Miles Odonnol 會提醒我們看到救護車時要〈請讓開〉!

Psycho? Dream? Reality? It’s RUSSIAN SOUP. FENG is about a prostitute and a little boy, and COMPANY POLICY about bureaucracy and war – maybe somewhere in Europe. GUESS WHO I AM? is about Burmese hookers and gangsters. Then throw in a couple of really seriously cool animations like CLEAR SKIES IN MAY, and as Miles Odonnol would have us remember, when you see an ambulance, PLEASE MAKE WAY.

《Copyright Criminals》
Benjamin Franzen, Kembrew McCloud/2009/美國/54分鐘

取樣犯法了嗎? 一個由音樂家，製作人和製片所組成的卡司在這個記錄片中探討這議題，討論的範圍從放克界傳奇人物George Clinton到超脫樂團的製作人Steve Albini 到專利法律師。撇開眼前這嚴肅議題，這著實是部為音樂愛好著量身打造的紀錄片。片中參雜著Dj們播放著混音，混搭著影像，而這些剪輯過的片斷顯示出這些原創的音樂是如何的被取樣，剪接，再製，以符合新的音樂品味。最廣泛的應用實例就是James Brown的前鼓手Clyde Stubblefield在「Funky Drummer」中的獨奏，已經成為嘻哈史上最被常取樣的節奏。其他參與演出的的音樂人和音樂團體還有 DJ Qbert, 嘻哈樂團人民公敵＜Public Enemy＞，美國東岸嘻哈饒舌三人組De La Soul 和DJ Spooky (a.k.a. Paul D. Miller, a.k.a. That Subliminal Kid)…等等。

Copyright Criminals
Benjamin Franzen, Kembrew McCloud/2009/US/54min

Is sampling a crime? In this documentary, the cast of musicians, producers and industry executives weighing in on the issue ranges from funk legend George Clinton to Nirvana’s producer Steve Albini to copyright lawyers. Despite the serious issue at hand, this is truly a doc for the music junkie. Scenes show DJs playing mixes and mashups, and these are dissected in split-screen montages to show how the original music is sampled, cut and refashioned to suit new tastes. One extensive thread is the case of Clyde Stubblefield, James Brown’s former drummer, whose drum solo on the tune “Funky Drummer” has become THE MOST SAMPLED beat in hip hop history. Other musicians and groups to appear include DJ Qbert, Public Enemy, De La Soul, Chibo Matto, Paul Miller aka DJ Spooky tha Subliminal Kid and many others.

在假如我是真的裡,一位外科醫生請電影工作者紀錄下他結束自己生命前的最後幾天因為他得了不治之症愛滋病但結局卻急轉直下出乎大家的預料，〈The Hobby〉一部同樣詭譎的法國片述說著如何習以承擔生活，〈極光〉就像環保主題的 「 樂一通(華納兔寶寶) 」 緊接著我們會連續播放兩部衝浪的影片。

In ON/OFF, a doctor tells a filmmaker he has AIDS and asks him to document his final days before he commits suicide, and then the film gets seriously weird. THE HOBBY, French and also bizarre, is about habituating to life as an undertaker. SKYLIGHT is like Looney Tunes for the eco movement. And then we have two killer surf vids as a segue to the feature.

《Sharkwater》救鯊行動
Rob Stewart/2006/加拿大/89分鐘

加拿大國際影展十大最佳影片，將為你爆料比鯊魚更兇殘的血‧腥‧兇‧手

導演羅勃‧史都華Rob Stewart熱愛潛水，穿梭在悠藍大海中讓他深深地愛上了兇猛而美麗的鯊魚，然而，他不禁為鯊魚垂淚，因為，每年一百萬頭鯊魚枉死造成全球鯊魚數量銳減，鯊魚存亡岌岌可危，導演史都華憑著一股對海洋的熱愛，決心找出殘殺鯊魚的真兇並記錄鯊魚兇面利齒背後的弱小與無助‧中華頂級料理，魚翅湯，原料來自鯊魚的背鰭，為滿足台港華人的口腹之慾，每年大量鯊魚遭不人道捕殺，許多甚至削去背鰭後被丟回海中，任其慘死，導演史都華深入調查，竟發現台灣黑道涉入其間，控制魚翅黑市，勢力遠至中美洲。為阻止非法捕殺，史都華加入海洋守護者協會，巡防遠洋非法捕鯨、獵鯊行為，為此，他會捲入怎樣的風暴之中？衝突一觸即發，搶救鯊魚總動員，開始！

Filmmaker Rob Stewart is a free diver and self-professed shark lover, who has seen shark populations worldwide decimated. The film, named one of “Canada’s Top 10” at the Toronto International Film Festival, estimates around 100 million sharks are being harvested each year, and many of them simply have their fins cut off and are thrown back into the ocean. Shark fins feed a growing trade in shark’s fin soup, a delicacy in Taiwan, Hong Kong and Taiwan and an illegal trade which Stewart discovers is being controlled by the Taiwanese mafia as far away as central America. In his quest to stop illegal shark fishing, he joins the crew of Sea Shepherd, and infamous activist group known for battling illegal fishing and whaling operations on the high seas. Together, they enter into dangerous confrontations at sea and even face jail in the courts of Costa Rica.

Favela on Blast

Auww yeah, we got DIPLO's film! (more English below)

台灣首映！
《Favela on Blast》
Wesley Pentz/2008/美國/巴西/80分鐘

位於巴西里約熱內盧的貧民窟深處，圍繞著八零年代美國節奏舞曲和傳統巴西森巴音樂的派對，正在悄悄舉行著。

本片跟隨著國際知名DJ Wesley Pentz(或稱 Diplo, 你們還記得嗎？)，冒險深入龍蛇雜處之處，探究音樂和舞蹈現象。Pentz是發現發現並推揚 "baile funk"(里約放克)音樂的功臣，並透過CD的發行在歐美各地推廣。這樣的音樂起源於暴力又貧困的環境，卻使的它更為裸露，存粹並直刺人心。這部紀錄片試著以一個故事架構來探討情、愛、貧窮與自尊，並用里約熱內盧這些最被邊緣化的人物來作詮釋。當然還有英雄反派兩立的情結，以及那遏制不住的跳舞癮！


Favela on Blast
Wesley Pentz/2008/ USA/Brazil/80min

Deep in the slums (favelas) of Rio de Janeiro, a unique party scene is being built around remixes of 80s American dance beats and local Brazilian samba music. The documentary follows internationally acclaimed DJ, Wesley Pentz (aka Diplo) as he ventures into gangland territory, exploring both a music and dance phenomena. Pentz is now credited with discovering the genre of “baile funk,” and popularizing it in the US and Europe through CD releases. Born of one of the most violent and poorest places on earth, the music is raw and personal. This documentary tells stories of sex, love, poverty, and pride amongst Rio's most marginalized people. It follows heroes and villains, and the irresistible urge to dance.

《台灣的極危險瀕臨絕種白海豚》
Taiwan’s Critically Endangered Dolphins
Christina MacFarquhar / 2010 / Taiwan/UK / 9min / En/Ch 英/中
這部影片為台灣極度瀕危的印太洋駝海豚（媽祖魚）所面臨的威脅及在地保育運動者遭逢的問題提供一個概觀。大規模的工業發展和密集的漁業行為已經改變了牠們的棲地，也使這個族群蒙受滅絕的危機。在數個重大開發案環伺而缺乏實際保育作為的當下，媽祖魚保育聯盟的陳秉亨提出了大哉問：「台灣到底有沒有要保護白海豚」？

For years, local activist groups have been fighting to save a critically endangered population of Indo-Pacific humpback dolphins in the Taiwan Strait. Industrial pollution is threatening to kill off these pink dolphins, known locally as “Matsu’s Fish.” This film, a Taiwan premier, asks the question: when will Taiwan start to take its environment seriously?

《The Cove》血色海灣
Louie Psihoyos/2009/美國/92分鐘

是今年2010奧斯卡最佳紀錄片得主，也同時贏得各大影展餘50多個獎項，包含日舞影展觀眾票選最佳紀錄片獎。本片令人憤慨的調查之旅將帶我們進入一個持續進行幾十年，世界上最令人髮指之一的綠色和平犯罪活動的危險海灣。

美國60年代當紅電視影集《飛寶》的海豚訓練師－瑞克•歐巴瑞Ric O'Barry帶領一個由社運份子和潛水精英所組成的團隊潛入日本和歌山縣太地町海灣，為揭發海豚圍捕真相，無視於警方的警告及肢體恐嚇。因為在這裡，每年有2萬3千隻的海豚遭到屠殺。這段日官方不斷反覆辯稱「為科學研究」並視為惡夢的鯨豚大屠殺的恐怖影片片段，目前已呈現給國際捕鯨委員會的當權者。

然而，此片之所以選擇將日本太地町的屠殺公諸於世，最大的擔憂及因素也是我們如何因過度漁獵而造成海洋生態滅絕。如同瑞克•歐巴瑞Ric O'Barry在片中所說：「若是我們無法改變什麼，那也不必理會其他更重要的事件了，因為根本就沒有希望。」

The Cove
Louie Psihoyos/2009/USA/92mins

The Cove won the 2010 Oscar for Best Documentary, in addition to over 50 other film festival awards, including Audience Choice for Best Documentary at Sundance. The film is an investigative thrill ride, leading us into a dangerous natural cove where one of the world’s worst environmental crimes has been taking place for decades. Ric O'Barry, the dolphin trainer from the TV show Flipper, leads a team of divers and activists who defy police warnings and physical threats to shed light on a dolphin roundup in Taiji, Japan, where 23,000 dolphins are slaughtered each year. Chilling footage from this annual slaughter is presented to the authorities at an International Whaling Commission, to the horror of Japanese officials who continue to defend the slaughter of whales for “scientific purposes.” The greater concern of the film, however, is how we are killing the oceans through overfishing. The reason they choose to make their point in Taiji, Japan is, as O’Barry says in the film, “If we can’t fix that, forget about the bigger issues. There’s no hope.”

UN2010: Open Call for Films

Taiwan's indie showcase for short films, docs and video art!

The Urban Nomad Film Fest is now accepting entries for its ninth annual festival, to take place in Taipei and Hsinchu starting April 30, 2010. There are NT$15,000 in prizes for the best short local films. The entry deadline is March 10 for short films, and March 1 for films over 40-minutes or coming from outside Taiwan.

This year we're getting with the environmental program, so we'll feature a program on the environment. There are just too many great new documentaries on this topic, and we'll debut several of them here in Taiwan. Otherwise, we will present the best new short films from Taiwan and cool-wierd ideas in film from the rest of the world. We also have a new category for 1-3 minute kuso films (kuso is Japanese for "shit" but implies a sense of clowning around.) What are we looking for? Films that are: extreme, socially concerned, political, sex-related, documentary, rock 'n roll, weird, funny, skate/surf, experimental, etc., etc. This year we also have something special in mind for the video art section. We'll also give some kick-ass parties and the best alternative film-watching environment in Taiwan.

International Applications and Features: Every year we invite several international feature-length films and documentaries and 1-2 directors for visits to Taipei. We are especially interested in cutting edge documentaries that would not otherwise be seen in Taiwan. We are looking for films that represent underground, indie or progressive currents, and we are willing to indulge the experimental. Films that fit this year's eco-focus theme are also naturally welcome, as are music films.
DEADLINE FOR FEATURE-LENGTH FILMS: MARCH 1, 2010.

Rules and Suggestions:
- Films under 15 minutes stand a greater chance of getting accepted.
- No more than 12 feature-length films are accepted each year, on average (NEW!!)
- Priority will be given to films with both Chinese and English: in other words, Chinese language films should have English subtitles, and all other films should have Chinese subtitles.
- Films should be produced no earlier than 2008.
- Do not submit the same film you submitted in previous years.
- You must fill out one application form per film you submit.
- Each film should be on its own, separate DVD.
- You can send more than one DVD (and application form) per package.
- It is easiest for us to receive regular or registered mail via the post office.

If your film is accepted, you will be entitled to FREE ENTERY to all Urban Nomad events, including screenings and parties. Basically, we want to hang out with you. Also, if you can speak at the screening of your film, that would be awesome!

Volunteers:
We need translators (English to Chinese) for film subtitles and event Staff for screenings and other events. Send us an email with VOLUNTEER in the subject line. We will contact you 1-2 months before the festival to check your availability.

Deadline: March 1 - international films and Feature-Length Films
March 10 - short films
Format: DVD or MEPG2 (NTSC)
Address: 5F #16 Jinmen St., Taipei 100, Taiwan

導演焦點：洪子健 與 陳瀅如
＊＊放映後導演問答
陳瀅如與洪子健是一對跨領域的藝術創作團隊。

他們的實驗電影與紀錄片在世界各地展出，包含巴黎的龐畢度中心 （Centre Pompidou) 、西班牙的蘇菲亞王妃藝術中心 （Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía‏) 、舊金山國際影展 (SIFF)，鹿特丹國際影展，以及阿姆斯特丹國際紀錄片電影節等。從舊金山到柏林到台北，這對合伙導演花了十年多諷刺探討世界各地的歷史，作品與一般嚴肅或形式化的實驗片完全不同，雖然主題極為沈重，包含歷史的真實性或理論性的問題，但他們的影片終究是透過具體的故事與情況而扣人心弦，有時也引人發笑。

本次挑選的六支短片題材，包含希特勒死亡紀念日、二次大戰日本在中國使用生化武器的後續，以及西方白人優惠的性資本（sexual capital) 等主題。

**screening followed by director Q&A

This Praha Erotica documentary series is not only a behind-the-scenes story of the porn industry in Prague, Czech Republic. With this image montage, I try to question the human side of this trade. After all, for those actors and actress going to the set and having sex with someone they hardly know as a daily/weekly job is certainly far beyond the imagination of most of us. This human side of this business intrigues me, but I’m not trying to make any conclusions here. Instead, I focus on what’s happening on what’s behind the cameras. It seems to be a flow mixing the most primitive human desires and also the most mysterious weaknesses of mankind. – Simon Chang, director CONTINUE READING

DIRECTORS IN FOCUS: CHEN YIN-JU and JAMES T. HONG
Chen Yin-ju and James T. Hong are an interdisciplinary art team, producing installations, performances, and film and video works. They have exhibited in the Pompidou Center in Paris and Riena Sofia Museum in Madrid and shown films in the San Francisco International Film Festival, Rotterdam Film Festival and International Documentary Festival, Amsterdam. They are best known for experimental documentaries portray some of histories deepest ironies in a style that is highly watchable and often funny, despite the grave overtones of their larger message. The six films selected for this program range across the anniversary of Hitler’s death, Japanese biological warfare in WWII, the sexual capital of the white man and other fun topics.

PRAHA EROTICA

7:00pm
Simon Chang/ 14min/ Czech/ 2009
language: Eng/Czech/Italian __subtitles: Eng/Ch
**screening followed by director Q&A

This Praha Erotica documentary series is not only a behind-the-scenes story of the porn industry in Prague, Czech Republic. With this image montage, I try to question the human side of this trade. After all, for those actors and actress going to the set and having sex with someone they hardly know as a daily/weekly job is certainly far beyond the imagination of most of us. This human side of this business intrigues me, but I’m not trying to make any conclusions here. Instead, I focus on what’s happening on what’s behind the cameras. It seems to be a flow mixing the most primitive human desires and also the most mysterious weaknesses of mankind.
– Simon Chang, director (2/11/2009)

This film has been selected for the 2009 Transmediale – Festival for Art and Digital Culture, Berlin and is in the collection of the Archive of Video Art from Eastern Europe. Simon’s short film Evaporation (2008) showed in numerous film festivals in Europe and Urban Nomad 2009.

SIMON CHANG is a 31-year-old Taiwanese photographer, filmmaker and writer living in Prague since 2003. Over the last six years, he has used film and still black-and-white photographs to collect stories from eastern Europe, including the prize winning series “They/Oni,” a documentary about Bohnice mental hospital in Prague. He applies a rigorous documentary style to his subjects, which have also included Czech huntsmen, a traditional Czech circus family, a remote Roman village in Hungry, and most recently a documentary about the Czech Republic porn industry.

Simon was born in Taipei and began acting in TV commercials as a high school student, appearing in ads for Nissan, Mitsubishi, MTV Taiwan and others. He majored in fine arts at Fujen Catholic University, and received local prizes for short films he directed. For more, see: www.simon.chinito.com

導演焦點：洪子健 與 陳瀅如

19:40
＊＊放映後導演問答

陳瀅如與洪子健是一對跨領域的藝術創作團隊。

他們的實驗電影與紀錄片在世界各地展出，包含巴黎的龐畢度中心 （Centre Pompidou) 、西班牙的蘇菲亞王妃藝術中心 （Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía‏) 、舊金山國際影展 (SIFF)，鹿特丹國際影展，以及阿姆斯特丹國際紀錄片電影節等。從舊金山到柏林到台北，這對合伙導演花了十年多諷刺探討世界各地的歷史，作品與一般嚴肅或形式化的實驗片完全不同，雖然主題極為沈重，包含歷史的真實性或理論性的問題，但他們的影片終究是透過具體的故事與情況而扣人心弦，有時也引人發笑。

本次挑選的六支短片題材，包含希特勒死亡紀念日、二次大戰日本在中國使用生化武器的後續，以及西方白人優惠的性資本（sexual capital) 等主題。

----影片----

《資本主義萬萬歲》（2006/5分鐘/陳瀅如、洪子健）
西方資本主義歷史的符號象徵。科技的發展過程中，科技應是資本累積與戰爭的服侍者，但在石油世紀與戰爭的當下，科技卻代表了資本主義。此片靈感來自於俄國藝術家馬勒維奇提出的「絕對主義」(Suprematism)與當今的石油戰爭。作品中的影像符號適於任何畫質解析度的螢幕，大至戲院小至手機或iPod螢幕。

《希特勒地堡：遊客、新納粹，或是… 4月30日2009年》
（2009/6分鐘/陳瀅如、洪子健）
一九四五年四月三十日，希特勒於柏林的藏身地堡舉槍自盡。本片呈現六十四年後的同一天與同一地點，會有哪些人出沒，什麼事發生？

《恆殤》（2009/23分鐘/陳瀅如、洪子健）
本片紀錄在二次大戰期間，研發生化武器的日本731部隊所留下的遺毒，以及被波及的被害者。

《全面動員》 （2005/8分鐘/陳瀅如、洪子健）
遷徙與移民是事實亦是命途。美國白人的逐漸消失有可能終結美國強權，西方世界也許只剩下歐洲與其殖民地。沒有了美國，所謂的西方只剩下歐亞大陸末端的一小角。〈全面動員〉是一部諷刺、誇張的實驗片，利用集體奮鬥的螞蟻作為隱喻。它也許影射美國白人的隱懮，又或許是直接陳述事實，端看觀眾如何詮釋。

《財‧縫》 （2008/8分鐘/陳瀅如）
一位台灣母親日夜辛勞地為貴婦人裁製衣服賺錢，以支付女兒在美就學的昂貴學費。全片以一通討論信用卡開支的母女越洋電話為對白，影像則呈現詳細的縫紉工作過程，企圖表達傳統亞洲父母為了孩子無怨無悔的奉獻。

《台北101：病徵紀實》 （2004/23分鐘/洪子健）
一位亞裔美國人在台灣如同朝聖般的尋根之旅中，看到世界最高的建築–台北101；他意外的發現台灣的文化意識被美國文化明顯而強勢的侵略，並沾污成為全球化、美國化、資本主義化、以及跨越國際的白人強權。

DIRECTORS IN FOCUS: CHEN YIN-JU and JAMES T. HONG

7:40pm
** Director Q&A following the screening

Chen Yin-ju and James T. Hong are an interdisciplinary art team, producing installations, performances, and film and video works. They have exhibited in the Pompidou Center in Paris and Riena Sofia Museum in Madrid and shown films in the San Francisco International Film Festival, Rotterdam Film Festival and International Documentary Festival, Amsterdam. They are best known for experimental documentaries portray some of histories deepest ironies in a style that is highly watchable and often funny, despite the grave overtones of their larger message. Films selected for this program range across the anniversary of Hitler’s death, Japanese biological warfare in WWII and the sexual capital of the white man.

-------------FILMS---------------

Suprematist Kapital (2006/5min/Chen Yin-ju and James T. Hong)
A Symbolic History of Kapital. Inspired by Kasimir Malevich's minimalist artworks and the struggles for resources in the age of peak oil, Suprematist Kapital was born of the want to create a visual artwork that could be displayed on many different-sized mediums regardless of resolution, e.g., theater screens, mobile devices, ipod's, etc. Where once technology as progress was an end in itself, it became the handmaiden of capitalist accumulation and war, and is now a form of capital itself in the age of peak oil.

Führerbunker: Touristen, Neo-Nazis, und Andere - 30 April 2009
(2009/6min/ Chen Yin-ju and James T. Hong)
A video document of Hitler’s final bunker in Berlin, Germany on the anniversary of his suicide (30 April).

Wounds That Never Heal
(2009/23min/ Chen Yin-ju and James T. Hong)
A short profile of the victims and lasting legacy of Unit 731 -- a World War II, Japanese, biological warfare facility. Following the first bombing of Tokyo by US forces, the Japanese punished entire villages and counties in China where the bombers crash landed by spraying diseases from crop-duster-like airplanes. The effects can still be seen on the bodies of those living in the region today.

Total Mobilization (2005/8min/Chen Yin-ju and James T. Hong)
Migration is fact; immigration is destiny. The disappearance of White America could mean the end of the United States of America, as we have known it. The West could be reduced to Europe and few lightly populated overseas European settler countries. Without America, the West becomes a miniscule and declining part of the world’s population on a small and inconsequential peninsula at the extremity of the Eurasian land mass. TOTAL MOBILIZATION is an evocative, ironic, and bombastic experimental video that ostensibly focuses on a group of struggling ants. The open-minded will see it as a trenchant metaphor of nativist fears; the closed-minded will see it as a document of the truth.

Transactions (2008/8min/Chen Yin-ju)
This video shows one example of how Asian parents devote themselves to their grown children. Here a mother works tirelessly for rich clients so she can send her daughter to study in the USA. The montage illustrates the detailed procedure of dressmaking, and the phone conversation covers credit card expenses, converted from US dollars to Taiwanese yuan.

Taipei 101: A Travelogue of Symptoms (2004/23min/James T. Hong)
In TAIPEI 101: A TRAVELOGUE OF SYMPTOMS an Asian American encounters the semblant operations of Americanization on a pilgrimage to Taiwan. He discovers that Taipei 101 -- currently the world's tallest building -- Taiwan's culture, and his own consciousnesses are indelibly marked by globalization, America, capitalism, and the transnational power of white men.

特別放映《水乳交融》~~ 這個很色的嘍 ^^

大家好，我們遊牧影展突然有個比較特別的機會，這個星期六晚上8點能給大家播放一部由美國藝術家 Lawrence Weiner 拍的22分鐘短片電影《水乳交融》 (Water in Milk Exists)，影片製作人平川典俊會在現場談談影片內容與自己的攝影創作。美國的重要藝術雜誌 Art Forum 如此評論《水乳交融》：「這部非敘述性A片充滿一群20幾歲者彼此操，吮，弄，手淫等行為，全部發生在紐約瑞士當代藝術研究院的Soho區空間與唐人街的攝影棚裡。在影片裡，激起性慾望的色情場面以及關於 "各人對現實的定義” 和 “弦理論” 的冗長而勉強的哲學想法一直交替，就像導演一直在玩一個讓我們感到激動的開關，性慾望的引起又開了又關了。」（閱讀原文）這麼說呢，大家大概已經明白，如果A片、gay片、手淫、口交會冒犯到你，那這場放映會就不是你的菜。影片會有中文字幕 （現在正很趕地做），放映前後也有中文的解釋。

若你沒聽過平川典俊，他來自日本，住在紐約，是一位國際藝術圈子裡有知名度的藝術家，最有 ~~嗯，或許可以說他具有 “名氣” 的攝影系列是由典俊要求很多女生是否可以借用她們的相機來拍她們的裙底風光而創作出來。這次的活動在非常廟藝文空間舉行，為呼應Chi-Wen 畫廊於9月12日舉辦的平川典俊個展 UNFOLD UNIVERSE，展覽於當日下午 3-6點開幕。放映會沒有入場費，但觀眾至少消費一杯飲料。總的來說這是瞭解古怪的平川典俊談論他的藝術，以及他如何遊走在情色邊緣的難得機會。

Water In Milk Exists: 9/12 @ VT Art Salon

Hi everybody. We quite suddenly were presented with the opportunity to show you something rather weird, a 22-minute film by American artist Lawrence Weiner called WATER IN MILK EXISTS. It happens this Saturday at 8pm, and the film's producer Noritoshi Hirakawa will be there to talk about both the film and his own work. Noritoshi is an interesting character, an internationally known art photographer who is famous for taking pictures of women's underwear. The screenign will take place at VT Art Salon, and admission only requires that you buy one drink.

But before you come, we should probably mention that if you are easily offended by porn, gay porn, blow jobs, or abstruse philosophy, this just might not be for you. Here is how one of the world's top art magazines Art Forum reviewed the film: "This nonnarrative porn is full of twenty-somethings fucking, sucking, playing, and masturbating in the Swiss Institute’s SoHo loft and a Chinatown photo studio. Scenes alternate between often-thrilling hardcore porn and contrived and tedious philosophical musings about 'personal definitions of reality' and 'string theory.' Like a switch flicked too soon, stimulation teasingly turns on and off." (Read the entire review.) Also, the film is in English with Chinese subtitles. Discussions and an introduction to the film will be bilingual in English and Chinese.

This screening of Water in Milk Exists will be held in conjunction with Noritoshi's exhibition UNFOLD UNIVERSE at Chi-Wen Gallery, which opens earlier the same day from 3-6pm. This is a rare chance to hear the often outlandish Noritoshi discuss his art and its relation to pornography.

20:00 get your seat
20:15 introduction to film and artist

COSPLAY

8/28 (五) Friday 17:00-18:00

COSPLAY – 陳明秀與其他導演以探討青年打扮成漫畫人物的短片與實驗片。

Even when we hate cosplay, we LOVE cosplay!! This section includes short films by Mia Chen and two other directors. The cool thing about Mia Chen's shorts is that even though she comes at Cosplay from an academic background, she stays away from analysis and heavy theoretical framework that would kill her subject, and instead focuses on getting into the heads of the kids she meets. What Chen does is show the imaginative process of these teens go as they dress like their cartoon heroes.

【Today's Cosplay】
Loren Von Hogue/ 2007/ Taiwan/ 6min/ En (英)
【On the Japanese Doll Complex】
Katrien Jacobs/ Hong Kong/ 18 mins/ En/Ch (英/中)
What kind of Japanese doll would you like to buy and live with, if you had the opportunity? In this docudrama, the gifted doctor ‘Madame Remedy’ (Nam Kung) highlights Chinese people's search for otherworldly alter ego’s. Madame Remedy points to a wide variety of cases where people seek the innocence and gender-fluidity of dolls, to embellish or alter the greyness of the everyday. She illustrates her case-study by showing snippets of the lives of Kigurumi cosplayers, Adult Video movies, fans of Boy Love animations, and owners of Ball-Jointed Dolls. Males and females alike explore Japanese excess as commodity exchange and identity transformation, falling in love with dolls or doll components in ways that are least expected - Katrien Jacobs.

來自網絡的 Flash 動畫次文化年輕創作者，卜樺住北京，曾參與過兩屆城市遊牧影展。因為她的作品太吊了，這也不是說我們喜歡她而已，2008年她參與釜山雙年展與上海雙年展亞洲的兩個大雙年展，最近大陸歌手左小詛咒也請她做一個新MV，受藝術與獨立音樂各種肯定，所以這次很高興能與卜樺合作在 Art Taipei 2009，做這個特別的節目。以下是卜樺的一個簡單訪問，讓大家更了解她的作品：

妳作品裡面的這個少女生是妳嗎？
一般看完我的系列數字繪畫的人都會說：這不就是你嘛。我開始覺得她不像，直到後來給她的表情畫得很“超然”，沒什麼笑容，我突然覺得她有了生命力。

她住在怎麼樣的世界？
基本上就是我每個階段的所謂“精神世界”，野生的，懷舊的，超現實的景象，表現的是現實中的感受和人的心性。

妳為甚麼喜歡用Flash來創作？
說到底想要的東西還是“自由”，這是我關於人生的答案。做“藝術”好像是我能想到的最好的途徑了，而做Flash是我能想到的做“藝術”的最好的途徑之一。到後來一切都是關乎精神層面的。但是獨立並不等於自由，獨立的人很多，自由的人很少。怎麼樣才算自由的人？我的答案也很簡單：做一個無所畏懼的人，那你就是自由的。自由相伴著真正的喜悅。

對現在的年輕人，網絡算不算重要發表的頻道？對妳自己呢？
當然很重要了，改變新一代人類的處世性格。我很討厭出去“兜售”自己，現在不用了。很多人只需要在家做喜歡的事情，剩下的就是別人來找到他/她。

Bu Hua got her chops in the China's flash animation web sites, a free-trade zone for ideas that's a universe unto itself. Even though we have been showing her work for the last two years, it's not just that we love her stuff. In 2008, she was invited to show works in the Pusan and Shanghai Biennials, and she has lately been comissioned to create a music video for legendary Beijing indie singer Zuoxiao Zuzhou. To help you understand Bu Hua's works a bit more by letting her speak for herself, here is a short interview conducted specially for this exhibition:

Who is the girl in your animations? Is it you?
Lots of people see the figure in my digital drawings and ask, "Isn’t that you?" I’m starting to think she’s not. Lately, the expression I’ve been giving her has been really detached, with no smile. Now, suddenly I feel like she’s taking on a life of her own.

What kind of world does this girl live in?
Basically it's what you might call the different phases of my own psychic world. The scenes are wild, nostalgic and surreal. They express feelings and states of mind from real life.

Why do you like to use Flash to make art?
My take on life is that the thing I'm really after is freedom. Making "art" is the best route for taking me there, and using Flash is one of the best routes to making "art" I've found. In the end, everything is about states of mind. But independence is not the same as freedom. There are many people who are independent, but few who are free. So what does it mean for a person to be free? My answer is simple: To fear nothing is to be free. And the companion of freedom is true happiness.

Is the Internet an important place for young people to express themselves? Is it important for you?
Of course it's really important. For the new generation, it's changed the nature of our place on earth. I really hate to go out and "sell myself," and now I don't have to. A lot of people can just stay home and do the things they like to do, and as for the rest, people will come find them.

The Yes Men Go Surfing

8/30 (日） Sunday 17:00-18:00

沒問題俠客去衝浪
媒體惡搞高手沒問題俠客從未播公開的短片。他們已經做出來兩部長片，其中最新的準備在台灣上院，預告片在下面的 YouTube，看看吧！

The Yes Men are a duo of media jamming activists, who among other things, have posed as representative of Dow Chemicals in an interview with BBC World, then told the world they would put US$12.1 billion to compensation and cleanup of the 1984 Bhopal gas disaster, the worst industrial accident in history. The Yes Men have two feature films to date （check the trailer for the new one below). For this segment, they've given us a selection of rare clips and outtakes, some of which have never been seen before. We've made a mashup of these, throwing in a couple of surf/skate videos for flavor.

The Yes Men in Taiwan

今天早上 The Yes Men （沒問題的俠客）在台北前往台北101測驗他們的 "保存球" 以及給一群警衛一些麻煩。接著在台北電影節非常成功的幾次放映，他們的新片 《沒問題俠客修理世界》(The Yes Men Fix the World) 大約秋天時要在台北上院。

以後的放映訊息請查前景公司的網站：www.ffe.com.tw 。一般的 Yes Men 訊息可以看他們官方網站：www.theyesmen.org

The Yes Men were at Taipei 101 this morning testing the Halliburton SurvivaBall and irritating building security. Their new film, The Yes Men Save the World, is playing at the Taipei Film Festival and will probably be released in Taiwan this fall.

TICKET 票: $400

We are proud to once again present Bob Log III, authentic Mississippi Delta punk blues (from Arizona)! A former recording star from Fat Possum. He is a one man band, playing guitar with his hands and drums with his feet. He wears a motorcycle helmet and sings into a telephone. He looks like they should shoot him out of a cannon, but instead he plays rock ‘n roll! After riding an inflatable raft and losing his tuxedo at the Urban Nomad 2009 party in April, he went on to play 36 shows in 36 days touring America. Now he's ready for one more in Taiwan. You damn well better not miss it. Remember, his shit is perfect!

Bob Log III 要回來了！再次坐充氣艇！再次瘋狂的一晚！＄400看國外有名藝人, 太難得！6月9日（二）@The Wall, 9pm

曾於日本最有名的搖滾音樂節Fuji Rock受大歡迎的這位 lo-fi 高手，接著4月初在夜巴黎的遊牧影展開幕派對的High舞狂表演，接著美國36天36站的迅速巡迴，Bob Log III 再次來台演出，若你對 punk 或blues 或 lo-fi 音樂感興趣, 你非來不可!

Bob Log III可說是原汁原味的密西西比河三角洲布魯斯 (Mississippi Delta blues) 樂手，用手彈吉他，用腳踢/打鼓，穿著一件砲彈服裝與摩托車安全帽唱歌！露骨的巫毒玩意兒讓女人爭相上台在Bob的腿上活蹦亂跳。Bob師承RL Burnside從Mississippi Fred McDowell學到的風格，繼續粗糙錄音的藍調傳統與創新，還加朋克精神。音樂生涯始於Doo Rag 樂團, 曾與Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, Beck, 和Ween巡迴表演。鼓手不見了之後，兩人團變單人團，他就繼續依靠他自己的獨特風味透過美國著現代名布魯斯唱牌 Fat Possum 出過三張專輯。現場演出裡，大放異彩的轟動全場是正常的! 他將讓你盡情舞動、忘情揮手，也許你抬頭還會發現他駕著小船遨遊在無限膨脹的夜空中！

Bob Log III上一次在台北城市游影展精彩表演，日本相當具有知名度的網上音樂雜誌Smashing Mag總編甚至特地由日本飛來參加。不知道他下次甚麼時候回來，這次別錯過， 讓我們再來瘋一次High翻天的派對吧！

鯨豚 Wholpin
**放映後鯨豚總編輯問答
followed by Q&A with Wholphin editor-in-chief Brent Hoff

『鯨豚』是一個來自舊金山的ＤＶＤ雜誌系列。以鯨魚和海豚兩個物種混合而生的例子來命名，這短片雜誌代表的就是一種新世界的合成。牠最棒的是內容都是在於純粹娛樂，與使命性的訊息傳達中取得的良好平衡。這個節目裡的影片將從北極光，到瑞典人對生活的倦怠，一路走到如天方夜譚的民主中國，等等。

Wholphin is a DVD magazine published out of San Francisco that is named after a new species of animal, one created after a whale and a dolphin, well, you know....drink too much champagne and listen to Barry White. So this magazine for short films was born, like its namesake, as a hybrid for a new world. Quite wonderfully, the contents of each issue ride a fine line between delivering solid entertainment and responsible information. Films in this program range from life weariness in Sweden to solar flares and democracy in China.

Here Comes Greatness
後院摔角
Matt Luem/ 2009/ USA/ 80min/ En/Ch 英/中
**放映後導演問答取消了，好可惜嘔 :( / there will no longer be a director Q&A, sorry :(

極度血腥暴力與真實的痛苦!　導演Matt Luem和Greg Fiering耗時七年拍攝，紀錄美國洛城青少年的後院摔角文化，描述他們如何組社區摔角聯盟，探討他們為何感受到站在自作拳擊台上才是真實，其他的一切都是假的。三十年前，加州充滿心懷不滿青年組群，變成朋克於滑板文化的出生地，現在又興起後院摔跤，是新時代的成年儀式或自滅的衝動？友誼、種族、鐵釘、鐵絲網與碎燈泡，再說一次！弟弟不要學，哥哥有練過！

In the backyards of suburban Los Angeles, teens like Andre “Youth Suicide” Verdun and Chris “Mr Fantastic” Jackson hurl each other across makeshift wrestling rings littered with thumbtacks, fluorescent tubes and barbed wire. The blood is real and so is the pain. Director Matt Leum and Greg Fiering spent seven years chronicling the rise and fall of amateur backyard wrestling leagues like the EEW (Evil Empire Wrestling). They followed what would eventually be seen as a YouTube phenomenon by Time magazine and ABC Television, describing kids on the suburban fringe in a search for meaning, friendship and the adrenaline rush of falling off a house or a reckless run through razor wire. Do we need to say…. Don’t try this at home.

Shorts 1: Romance vs. Nomance
短波一：是真浪漫，還是鬧劇一場？

你以為這只是一般的浪漫喜劇嗎？那你就大錯特錯了，讓人料想不到的劇情發展，保證讓你笑到爆。「Baby Baby」想知道情歌的吉它創作靈感都從哪裡來嗎？絕對讓你一路笑回家。「鎖匠先生的祕密」也普光愛情之秘密之一，若急得找女朋友，一個好方式是獲得諳練對方家裡的鑰匙，不過不是完全保證的嘍！

This section is not about romantic comedy, it’s about romance as comedy. (And no, that’s not the same thing.) “Baby Baby” is maybe the best movie ever about the where acoustic guitar love ballads come from. “May I Keep Your Key?” involves the best trick ever for getting a girlfriend – breaking and entering. Plenty of schadenfreude for everyone. Oh yeah!

Filmmaker Panel Discussion + Screening - FREE

李家王朝統治下的新加坡
One Nation Under Lee
Seelan Palay/ Singapore/ 2008/ 42min/ Ch/En 中/英
這是新加坡最新禁演的影片，製作人Soik Chin Chee同時也參與政治運動，已經被新加坡法院宣告破產而限制出境。本片披露新加坡前總理李光耀如何緊緊掌控國家的所有政治、媒體、經濟等權力資源，透過這種霸權機制，創造出自己的王位與朝代。然而李光耀卻向外界說，他的這種作風代表「亞洲價值」以及一種「民主」的方式。
This is the latest banned political documentary from Singapore, and one of the activist filmmakers behind it has been financially bankrupted by the government and is not allowed to leave Singapore. The film looks unflinchingly at Singapore’s founding ruler, Lee Kuan Yew, meticulously detailing the history of how he subjugated the city state under the guise of democracy.

Panel Discussion: Asian Activist Films
座談會：亞洲的紀錄片與社會運動

主持人 Moderator: 張鐵志
參與人 Panelists: 陳浩倫 (香港導演), 林正修, 蔡晏霖 (國立新加坡大學)

這個座談會由台灣作者與人權工作者張鐵志主持，香港導演陳浩倫以及其他專家參與，討論今年城市遊牧影展裡的三部關於抗議行動或改革的紀錄片，包括陳浩倫的「洞爺外傳之祝君安好」，新加坡的「李家王朝統治下的新加坡」，中國的「誰殺了我們的孩子？」等片子。與談人將分享他們對於香港、新加坡、中國的社會情況，以及紀錄片如何介入社會現實。

The panel will cover how films and filmmakers hope to affect change in different parts of Asia and will focus on three films in this year’s Urban Nomad program, Chan’s “Good Luck, Comrades!”, “One Nation Under Lee,” and the Chinese film about the Sichuan earthquake, “Who Killed Our Children?” The discussion will be chaired by writer and human rights advocate TC Chang and include Hong Kong filmmaker Fredie Chan.
