THIS EVENT IS COMPLETELY FREE! NO TICKETS REQUIRED!
CONCEPT: Because Treasure Hill is located along one of Taipei’s busiest bicycle paths, we’ve decided to create a new type of Drive-in Theater, and we’re inviting all of Taipei to drive in on their bicycles and watch some films with us. We’ll be showing one film a week for about six weeks in October and November. Aside from a special surprise we have prepared for Halloween, these films will be documentaries we’ve chosen because they’re both entertaining and tell us important things about the world around us. In recent decades, the world has been changing incredibly fast, and documentaries not only capture these changes most directly, they also reflect more basic changes, because they represent a democratization of the filmmaking process. Different groups of people are now more able to make films than ever before, especially women, activist groups, subculture groups and members of the developing world. As a result, views of “the world” are changing, and through documentary film we are seeing a richer and more diverse landscape of events. These events can be geopolitical news events, virtual events that take place through the media, or the grass-roots cultural developments. What they have in common, and what documentary captures best, is how these are all also human events, involving real people living real lives. All films will be free to the public, and we will invite some directors for audience Q&A sessions, workshops and screenings.
HOW TO WATCH MOVIES OUTDOORS?
First off, we recommend plastic wine glasses, because they will not break and certainly look better than paper cups. But seriously, these screenings will be outdoors and seating will consist of a lovely grassy park, so we recommend you prepare yourself just a bit. Good things to bring include: blankets and mats to sit on, camping chairs, mosquito repellent, a lunchbox from your favorite restaurant, proper clothing, and anything else you think you will need. Some beverages will be available.

這個活動是免費的！不用買票！
概念：寶藏巖位於台北市最重要自行車道途中，因此城市遊牧影展決定創造一種新式電影院。舊式汽車電影院幾乎看不見了，所以我們要往前看，來做個 「自行車電影院」，邀請台北市民踏過自行車道跟我們一起欣賞電影與寶藏巖的獨特美麗夜景。
近幾十年來，這個世界瞬息萬變令人難以捉摸，紀錄片不只直接地記錄這些變化，更反映出紀錄片製作過程民主化的基本變化，製作紀錄片的族群比以往更廣泛，並擴充至女性、社運團體、次文化族群以及發展中國家的人民。透過不同族群製作的紀錄片，我們看見世界觀正在改變，也看見一個更豐盛多元的事件風景。這些事件可以是地理政治學的新事件、透過媒體發生的事件或是草根文化發展。他們的共通點，也是紀錄片的關鍵，便是關注真實人類的真實生活。
我們將於10月及11月份的六個周末播放戶外電影，西方萬聖節時也有個令人期待的特映會。所有影片免費觀賞，我們也將邀請寄錄片導演到寶藏巖舉辦座談或工作坊。
參加活動小撇步：
像這般戶外草地上的放映，我們建議你利用塑膠的葡萄酒杯子，不過這不是說那種很便宜的拋棄式的塑膠杯子，要有一點水準吧！之外，多少準備一下以下物品：毯子或墊子、童軍椅、防蚊液、從你最喜歡的餐廳買來的食物，記得穿著簡單輕便的衣物。我們會供應一些飲料，當然也可以自己準備水。如果你想喝飲料，我們推薦使用塑膠杯，因為比較好看又不像紙杯容易破。

短片 Shorts：卜樺的數位短片 Short films by Bu Hua
中國 /2007-2010/ 12分鐘 / 無對話
卜樺是中國的Flash動畫藝術家，並曾參與重要展覽包括：上海雙年展、釜山雙年展以及各個影展（例如自2007年起參加遊牧影展！）。在卜樺許多的短片作品中總有會出現一個穿著學校制服的小女孩不斷探索著一個虛擬世界，並觀察虛擬世界中混雜的流行文化及充斥全球政治、環境惡化、工業社會疏離的黑暗現實。此次放映配合台北兩個畫廊單位Chi-Wen Gallery及就在藝術空間同步展出卜樺個展。放映的卜樺數位短片內容則包括：卜樺2010年的最新作品 -- LV森林、中國搖滾傳奇歌手左小詛咒 2010年的MV，以及深受大家喜愛的卜樺2007年的作品 -- 野蠻叢生。
Bu Hua is a Chinese artist and animator working in Flash animation, whose works have appeared in major art exhibitions like the Shanghai Biennial and Busan Biennial, and also film festivals (like Urban Nomad since 2007!). Many of her short films feature the character of a little school girl, who explores a surreal world that mixes pop culture with the dark realities of global politics, environmental degradation, and the alienation of an industrial society. This screening is held in coordination with two local art galleries now showing her works, Chi Wen Gallery and Project Fulfill Art Space. The short films include her newest work, LV Forest (2010), a music video for the Chinese rock legend Zuoxiao Zuzhou (2010), and one of our favorites, Savage Growth (2007).

** 放映後導演座談 film followed by director talk
在緬甸，加州聯合石油公司和法國道達爾石油公司為保護該公司的油管工程，僱用緬甸軍政府的軍隊，在油管區進行非人道行為：武力脅迫、施虐及強暴當地居民。 緬甸人權民運人士卡索瓦Ka Hsaw Wa多次進出該地區，冒著生命危險，紀錄遭到政府加害的人民慘況和種族屠殺現場。他拍攝的影片間接促成美國史上第一起跨國控告人權侵害的訴訟案，這起官司 纏訟將近十年後，卡索瓦以及他的族人們終於獲得平反。
This documentary investigates the human rights abuses associated with the construction of an oil pipeline in Burma funded by western oil companies, UNOCAL and TOTAL. It is also the story of the one-man mission of Burmese activist Ka Hsaw Wa, a former jungle warrior wanted by authorities both in Myanmar and Thailand. Ka risks his life in video-taped border crossings to document burned out villages and scenes of genocide, all funded by US oil companies and executed by the Myanmar’s junta government. His footage and reports result in a landmark court case in the US. It is the first time foreign nationals bring a class action lawsuit against US companies – and win!

短片 Shorts: 創想計畫 （一）Creators Project (1)
片子 Films: Peaches, Boys Noize, Peng Lei (17分鐘 )
創想計畫是由各種不同形式的藝術表現方式所結合而成的一個網站平台，不管是音樂、美術、影片、設計、建築或是任何你想的到的表現手法，都在這個網站裏面。當初網站成立時就是為了讓更多人看到這些想法和創意。這個網站的特色在於融合了一些藝術家的創意作品以及他們所製作的簡短紀錄片。而那也就是我們這次設立這些單元的最吸引人的地方。這個單元有前陣子剛來過台灣表演的Peaches(暴力蜜桃)、和十月十日即將來台表演的德國DJ Boys Noize，以及曾來台兩次的中國超新星龐克團---新褲子(New Pants)主唱:彭磊的影像作品，像是MV、視覺藝術……等等。
創想計畫是由Intel和Vice雜誌所共同創辦的，這些影片的中文字幕是由他們的中國合作者Niurenku.com所翻譯的。
The Creators Project is an online platform for that has set out to display creativity across all platforms, whether music, arts, video, design, architecture or you name it. It features both the creative works of its artists as well as short documentaries on them that it produced, and that’s what we’re featuring here: short docs on the music and performance of Peaches, the German DJ Boys Noize, and the Chinese musician and filmmaker Peng Lei. The Creators Project is created by Intel and Vice Magazine. These Chinese-subtitled screenings come courtesy of their China partner, Niurenku.com.
《 一個好人 》 A Good Man
Safina Uberoi/Australia/2009/80min /En/Ch (英/中)
這是有關一名澳洲牧羊農夫為了患病妻子而選擇開妓院謀生的真實紀錄片。14年前，瑞吉發現懷孕後不久突然中風，從此成為四肢麻痺者，不能走路、說話甚至移動雙臂，但其丈夫基斯多年來對她不離不棄，本身為牧羊農夫的基斯，為了解決財政上的困境，讓妻子有更舒適的生活，他決定放棄牧羊，轉為經營妓院。薩芬娜用了一年多時間將這則故事拍成電影，從妓院的建造過程到開始營業，薩芬娜一直跟隨基斯及其朋友，將整個過程紀錄下來，在性工作者搬進這個基斯和瑞吉的新家的同時，作為好丈夫和妓院主人的基斯仍對行動不便的妻子百般照顧，薩芬娜把兩者的強大對比和矛盾的張力，用幽默手法呈現出來，並為這個家庭塑造了令人感動和驚喜的形象。
Seldom have we ever seen a documentary that was both so funny and so touching. Chris Rohrlach seems like an ordinary Australian bloke from the country, but he has an extraordinary story: fourteen years ago, his pregnant girlfriend Rachel had a massive stroke that left her incurably quadriplegic. Undeterred, the couple were married shortly after their son was born. Years on, with another baby on the way this inspiring couple decided they needed a second income. The solution? Open a brothel in their conservative country town. Filmmaker Safina Uberoi directs a compelling and sensitive film about love, commitment and resilience.

《混製宣言》RiP! A Remix Manifesto
Brett Gaylor/Canada/2009/80min / En/Ch (英/中)
《混製宣言》是一部關於版權和混製文化的紀錄片。網路行動者及導演布雷特 ˙蓋勒在訊息時代探討版權問題，顛覆二十世纪媒體傳統形象，且打破大眾和媒體人的隔閡。電影主角Girl Talk為一名混製音樂創作者，他放歌的時候，連 Paris Hilton 上台跳舞 ，但他到底是草根力量楷模還是侵權行為引領者呢？從 Mickey Mouse 到 Metallica, 來看版權的影響力跨到我們所有的文化生產，也來聽如何 Muddy Waters 的音樂變成 Rolling Stones 的歌，再來透過 The Verve 的詮釋改成另外一個東西，最後出現在 Nike 的廣告的時候，也變成訴訟的主題。知識共享創始人勞倫斯˙萊斯格、巴西文化部長吉爾伯托˙吉爾、大眾文化批評家科利˙多克托羅一同探討此問題。
RiP: A remix Manifesto is a documentary film about copyright and remix culture. It starts off by following the mash-up artist Girl Talk, who’s topping the charts (and even meeting Paris Hilton) with his sample-based songs. But is Girl Talk about people power or piracy? Creative Commons founder, Lawrence Lessing, Brazil's Minister of Culture Gilberto Gil and pop culture critic Cory Doctorow all add perspective on how copyright has comes to affect everything from Mickey Mouse to Metallica. Follow songs from Muddy Waters to the Rolling Stones to the Verve and finally Nike commercials, and witness the ridiculous and era-defining lawsuits that ensue. If you listen to music regularly – any music! - this film is for you.

2 Films by Coan Nichols and Rick Charnoski
**Director Q&A following screening
Coan “Buddy” Nichols 與 Rick Charnoski 1998年認識，一下子就發先他們都超愛兩個東西，一個是玩滑板，另一個是以超八米厘底片為拍電影。他們兩個也是那種為了尋找聽說過的傳奇玩滑板的地方，願意開車兩天，不管是在德州，奧勒岡州，或是加州的無水的游泳池。這十年來，他們一直靠著這種素材拍了許多電影，片中的又粗糙又美麗的美學感夠好引起著明獨立電影導演 Gus van Sant 的主意，他後來利用他們的一些片斷在《迷幻公園》 (Paranoid Park) 一部電影裡。 Rick 與 Buddy 拍過電視廣告，MV，短片電影，紀錄片等不同類型的作品，我們現在非常的高興他們能來台北發表部新作！11月27日晚上播放電影之外，他們還會參加寶藏嚴11月27日至28日的 open studio，我們想歡迎大家過來遊牧影展的工作室好好認識。
Coan “Buddy” Nichols and Rick Charnoski met in New York in 1998 through skateboarding and shared an interest in super 8 film. They were the kind of guys who would drive halfway across America to skate a ramp in a backyard in Texas, a skate park in Oregon, or some empty swimming pools in California. They made films about all these things with a beautiful and grainy aesthetic of film, one so powerful Gus van Sant used some of their footage for his film Paranoid Park. Rick and Buddy have been making skate films for more than 10 years now, and also TV commercials, fashion films, music videos, short movies and documentaries. Their biggest so far is Deathbowl to Downtown (2008), a history of skateboarding in New York.
For the open studio at Treasure Hill Artist Village on Nov. 27-28 (Sat-Sun), Rick and Buddy will install some of their earlier films inside their studio. Anyone is welcome to come hang out with them.
Blood Shed
2009/ US/ 24min/ En/Ch
很多年前，美國最早最有名的滑板雜誌 《Thrasher》登上一篇文章，是描述一群年輕人，他們為了玩滑板而侵入陌生人的後院，可是不知道那家裡面住著崇拜撒旦的一群邪教徒。在這部短的劇情片中，大家可以猜後續是甚麼。。。
This short horror film is based on an old article in the first great American skateboard magazine, Thrasher. The article was about a bunch of kids who went to skate a pool at a house inhabited by a satanic cult. Guess what happens next?
《紐約滑板客大事記》Deathbowl to Downtown
2008/ US/ 86min/ En/Ch
Rick 跟 Buddy 一直說這部紀錄片“不應該視為紐約市滑板場景的正式歷史”,不過到現在都沒有更好的版本。為了拍這部，他們花了三年，訪問跟這個歷史有關的超過一百位，也整理好了數千老照片與數百個小時的老 VHS 錄影帶。在這個過程中，導演們一直遇上某一些故事，這部紀錄片就是收集這些故事的結果。透過敘述者 Chloe Sevigny (《Dogville》,《The Brown Bunny》,《Kids》) 的旁白，我們也看見滑板文化是如何從加州的衝浪文化的一個來源而登上陸地，後來傳染到美國各地郊區，終於在80年代的紐約經過一個很關鍵的變化，變成目前還流行的“街頭滑板”模式。
Rick and Buddy say this movie is “not meant to be viewed as the THE HISTORY of skateboarding in New York City,” but it is certainly the best one so far. They spent three years interviewing over 100 people from every generation of the NY skate scene and went through thousands of archival photos and hundreds of hours of footage. Throughout this process the same stories came up over and over. This film, narrated by Chloe Sevigny, is a collection of those stories. It’s also the tale of how skateboarding came out of the ocean in California, then spread to the suburbs all across America, and then in the 1980s underwent an important transformation in New York City, where the urban landscape finally took on a close association with skateboarding and “street skating” was born.

腳踏車電影院：第一周 《Everywhere Now》
**免費／戶外的放映
FREE OUTDOOR SCREENING

各位朋友你好！
有人記得寶藏巖嗎？是台北市邊緣的一個很好晚的地方，4年前藝術類型的活動很多，為了整修已關了三年多，10月2日重新開幕。新的經營單位是台北國際藝術村，他們早就拜託遊牧影展讓人家知道這個好事情，邀請我們來播放電影，所以我們想起了《腳踏車電影院》這個概念，可以讓人家在戶外欣賞免費的電影，季節也剛好是秋天，傍晚通常很舒服，很適合鋪一塊布在草地上，喝自己帶來的葡萄酒，欣賞好片！
為了配合寶藏巖的開幕，遊牧影展的《腳踏車電影院》10月3日進行第一場放映，後來從10月23日至11月28日幾乎每個週末都有一場 (我們會在本網站宣佈細節）
Hey folks,
After four years of renovation, a Taipei arts district called Treasure Hill is reopening. Urban Nomad has been invited to screen films, FOR FREE! and outdoors. The first will be on Oct. 3 and will coincide with Treasure Hill's reopening weekend. After that, we'll show movies pretty much every weekend from Oct. 23 to Nov. 28 (details forthcoming on this site). The screening series is called DRIVE-IN MOVIES. Hope to see you there this Sunday!
FILM／影片：《Everywhere Now》
Bill Harvey/ 2008/ US/ 98min/ 英/中 (En/Ch）
** 反映後導演座談 film followed by director talk
比爾哈維的«沙拉油帶你環遊»中共通的議題不只振奮人心但也揪人心弦。導演比爾於2008年將自有1981年產的柴油賓士改裝為使用沙拉油的環保汽車，並開啟一段將近八千英里的長途旅程。 比爾說：「想像一下......連鎖速食店將會變成加油站。」equal parts comedy/tragedy立即拆解他的計畫，將電影的焦點由他的車轉移至他的人。超低氣溫、艱難道路和引擎無情地故障，讓這部紀錄片更像在懺悔自白。當他咒和罵罵按
當編咒罵和喇叭時，
Billy Harvey’s “Everywhere Now” is as much inspiring and heart wrenching, as it is universally relatable. It depicts an almost 8000 mile odyssey Billy undertook in the winter of 2008 after converting his 1981 Mercedes diesel to run on waste vegetable oil. “Think of it…Fast food chains could be the gas stations of the future” Harvey exclaims. Equal parts comedy/tragedy, the almost immediate unraveling of his plan quickly shifts the focus of this movie from his car to his character. Freezing temperatures, impossible drives, and the relentless malfunctioning of his engine slant the movie away from “documentary” and more toward “confessional”. It is here, as he honks and sputters his way across America that his insights and indomitable spirit expose the true heart of this movie...him. What we recognize of him in ourselves is what makes this story so moving. “Everywhere Now” may be a touchstone for us all, giving pause to question and almost surely encouraging one to just keep going.

《FAVELA ON BLAST》
Wesley Pentz (aka DIPLO) / 2008 / USA/Brazil美國/巴西 / 80min / En/Ch 英/中
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)，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！

The Lost Cause
失落的動機
France | 2010 | 12mins
以超八釐米軟片及HD數位拍攝製作，Guillaume Mazloum 的短片「失落的動機」關注於人在反叛及暴動中尋求意義的生命經驗。主角身處於反烏托邦的景況，失去一切、感到絕望。存在著的沮喪感來自人類的自由及責任，因為意義無法被定義，而是應該被實踐。主角在自我責任的隱喻中掙扎，思考自我的存在性與生命的意義。我們到底應該發起怎樣的革命？還是它僅止於本片的標題，是一個「失落的動機」？
Shot in Super 8mm film and HD digital, Guillaume Mazloum’s [The Lost Cause] hinges on the human experience search for meaning amid a rebellious uprising. A complete loss or absence of hope is discerned by the protagonist through a dystopian tableau. This existential despair marks the consequences that come with human freedom and responsibility because meaning cannot be prescribed but must be realized. The protagonist grapples with the implications of self-responsibility over who we are and what our lives mean. Whatrevolt should we lead? Or is it merely a ‘lost cause’ as the title suggests?

Spektr
史派克
France | 2005 | 6mins
恐怖事物的化身—邪靈，貫穿了這部實驗影片，迴盪著令人不舒服的恐懼與危險感。利用人類意識的邊緣找到的斷簡殘篇，以及晦澀藝術作品的片段，Spektr 結合了拼貼、雕塑及攝影，延伸了動態影像的傳統語彙。片中的視覺手法讓觀眾感知到身處鬼魅知域的恐懼，以及將至的毀滅之境。
Something widely feared as possible unpleasant danger echoes in this experimental video
through incorporeal spirits; an apparition signaling some source of terror. Using found footage from the fringes of popular consciousness and artworks of obscure scrap materials, Spektr extends beyond the traditional language of the moving image by the integration of collage, sculpture and photography. The visual tactic in this film allows us to sensate the haunting predicament of what is yet to come--total destruction.

Flow
流
Taiwan | 2010 | 5’20”
【流】表現了時間的流動，描摹當人們迷失於時空中所產生的困惑混亂，以及其中倏忽即逝的心理回音。該實驗影片以觸發幽閉恐懼及焦慮的方式來述說失去控制的昏眩不安。朦朧彷彿催眠式的視覺捕捉與組合，交織以扭曲的影像，【流】嘗試要捕捉生命中飄渺幽微 的變化，卻也同時絕望地蔓生滋長著感懷，對於一年裡不停運行的季節──隨著流動的呼吸自然蒸散。
A representation of the flux of time, 流, which means “flow,” draws on the notions of the temporal and the psychological echoes of confusion when one experiences a loss of space and time. Evoking fears of claustrophobia and anxiety, this experimental video addresses the qualms of losing control. Shot and composed through hazy and trance-like visuals intertwined with distorted and stitched photographic imagery, 流 seeks to capture the subtle nuances and erratic moments in life while hopelessly trailing the fainting nostalgia of seasons that shift continuously throughout the year--exhaled by nature, one breath, or flow, at a time.

Shōwa Incident
昭和事變
Taiwan | 2010 | 09’06”
《昭和事變》由照片與底片、超八、DV、數位相機、手機等各式媒材組成。在原始材質上，著重在對於底片特性的運用與數位檔案間的翻轉，在拍攝上採取放任態度令意外自然產生。比如說一台電池失效的相機其底片過度曝光，經由數位調整反差之後產生歧異的顏色質感；而在超八的底片特性上，利用人工手沖的方式，改變手沖的溫度、時間，去製造底片的＂質變＂；最後利用數位的翻轉製作，使用掃描、翻拍、數位剪輯下的重新排列（速率、景框、格放等），去為各種媒材進行統整結合的工作。
Shōwa Incident is edited and combined by different mediums, such as photos, films, images taken from super8, DV, digital camera and cell phone. The adaption of mediums
puts emphasis on the characteristic of film and the subversive results of re-editing the digital data. To create the random effects, the artist shot the film casually. For example, by adjusting digital contrast of the over-exposed film done by a battery malfunctioned camera will generate an unusual color texture. With the nature of a super8 film, the artist uses handmade method, changes the temperature and times taken to make the qualitative change of the film. Lastly, she uses the technical skills of scanning, re-shoot, digital editing and other digital conversions to make new arrangements, also the integration of different media.

Chris Ritson 以剪貼多種被遺棄的肢體印刷影像作為創作媒材，重新組合出動物或是抽象的形體，來檢視混合了神話與怪誕的，關於身體、形態學和文化的議題。物體一開始以變態的人類形象出現，Ritson以精密雕刻般的學院派技巧，巧妙地將原本無趣的物體變形為超脫定義之外的複雜組成。思考自然界中事物的轉變過程，以及我們是如何了解箇中奧妙，Ritson使用水晶，一種傳統被使用在科學領域裡的物質，創造出彷彿外星球的風景，並在整部片中引領以人聲旁白。就在物質與物質之間的關聯逐漸向我們顯現的同時，關於人工或自然的內在本質，我們對於人類感知自然的全是都是無效的，反倒接近於煉金術秘方或神祕占卜。
Examining issues relating to the body, morphology and culture infused with the mysterious and grotesque, Chris Ritson’s clipped images of the body from various discarded print media is reconfigured into animals or abstract shapes. What at first appears as perversions of the human form, Ritson’s detailed sculptural and collage techniques transmogrifies the formerly banal into complex formations that escape definition.
Contemplating the transformative processes in nature and the ways in which we come to understand them, Ritson uses crystals, a medium traditionally associated with science, to create an extraterrestrial-like landscape while initiating temporal narratives through video. As the relationship between the materials used begin to unfold before us, whether intrinsic to nature or artificial, our interpretation of how we perceive nature is negated and becomes analogous to alchemical secrecy or mystic divinations.

Regeneration Project III-Popeggs
再生計畫III─爆蛋花
U.S. | 2009 | 5’30“
一顆顆雪白的雞蛋被逐一置入廢棄的微波爐中，堆疊成小山。在微波爐清脆的一個警示音後，蛋汁四溢橫流，不復完整。這件簡單的行為錄像作品似乎暗喻著；人類的過度人口繁衍，終將在一瞬間，觸發災難。
The snow-white eggs are placed one by one in a deserted microwave, piling up like a ill. In the wake of a bright beeping sound of the microwave, the egg liquid spurts everywhere, ended up recognizable shape. The simple documentary video seems to imply that with the overpopulation of human beings, the disaster is about to be triggered.
After coming to the US, I still keep being killed by...
來到美國後，我還是一直被......殺
這件作品是由兩部影片所組成的系列行為錄像作品的其中一件，拍攝於美國巴爾的摩的多處公共空間。藝術家將印有中、英文「刑案現場禁止進入Crime Scene Do Not Cross」的黃色警戒線置於公共場合的電梯門上，自己則橫臥在地，仿如行案現場的受害者。藝術家以「偽刑案」的事件介入公共空間，創造出「意外」的效果。在路人目擊事件的驚詫中，自身也入鏡成為事件的一部分。
This video art work is one of a series of the project composed by two videos, shot respectively in the public places in Baltimore, MD, USA. The artists hang the police line that says “Crime Scene! Do Not Cross!” in front of the elevator, and he lied down in it as the victim. By creating “pseudo crime scene”, the artist involves himself astonished at the sight of the scene. They become part of the event as well.

The Walbrzych Notebook
瓦烏布日赫筆記
Poland, Germany | 2009 | 9mins
瓦烏布日赫是波蘭西南部人口最多的城市，自1935年開始發展煤礦產業。90年代時，這座城市的礦區因為社會與經濟的變動而崩潰，當地的居民因此經歷了隨之而來的解雇潮及從中產生的社會危機感。在今日瓦市有了復甦跡象的同時，本片敘述遷移進這座城市空間的人們面對現實處境的景況。偏離實際發生的歷史細節與經濟剖析，本片描繪了一幅人類學的風景，以視覺與聽覺交錯著自然的聲響、談話、及樂音，呈現出時空的氛圍。
A former mining site since 1535, Walbrzych is the most populated city in south-western Poland. During the 1990s, the town’s coal mines were shut down due to societal and economic changes. As a result, the people of Walbrzych experienced a social crisis from the accompanying dismissal of hundreds of workers. While the city today show signs of renewal, this film illustrates the people moving within the city’s spaces confronting their reality. Digressing from historical and economic analysis on the details that took place, the film paints an anthropological portrait; a representation of a place and time filtered through visuals and musical scores of natural sounds, speeches and instrumental music.
