「當今國際其中一隊最創新的設計組合 。」
- 英國諾丁漢NOW藝術節
In partnership with the British Council , D-Fuse from London will bring to us a cutting-edge innovative live performance Latitude [ 31°10N / 121°28E ] featuring fragments of China city life expressed through a mix of digital media. Latitude [ 31°10N / 121°28E ] is being performed around the globe in the UK, Germany, Spain, Italy, the Netherlands and the USA since 2007. Its Hong Kong stop is certainly a once-in-a-life-time performance not to be missed, whether you are a diehard film, video, music or design advocate.

The new book is called “Para/Site 1996-2008″. I positioned it in the area of arts administration and Hong Kong art ecology. The bookstores showed it in the eye-catching area. Radio Metro Finance interviewed me. You can listen it this Sunday (Mar. 8, 2009) at 7pm to 7:30pm in Catonese. I change the channel now.
最近幫Para/Site編輯了一本書”Para/Site 1996 -2008″,以藝術行政和香港藝術生態作定位,商務和樂文都放在上當眼處,很開心。新城財經台(FM104) 節目”愛書才會贏”訪問了我,訪問會於3月8日 (星期日) 晚上 7 時至 7 時半於新城財經台的節目播出, 有空收聽吓啦! 謝謝

當一層層木板圍著七座龐大公屋組群時,擁有四十年歷史的牛頭角下村八至十四座勢將被畫上句號。我們再看不見三五成群的老人,在長長的公屋走廊,坐著磨得光亮的木凳上,互訴故事;也聽不見冰室老闆喊「三蚊一件菠蘿包,抵食夾大件」的響亮叫賣聲;更嗅不到遠遠從舊藥材舖發出來的氣味。這個社區裡的一切,就只留在記憶之中。在繁囂的城市裡,牛頭角下村這種地道的生活藝術和社區力量營造出來的個性和意蘊,正是香港特有的本土文化.
我們希望趁這最後一個徙置大廈清拆前做紀錄,豐富公屋發展歷史及香港故事。「牛下開飯─告別徙置生活展」,更集結了九位熱愛本土文化的藝術創作人,透過相片,影像,插畫,聲音,裝置藝術以及文字的多媒體界別,將地道的生活文化及精神呈現。他們運用街坊聚腳的活動空間─興記茶餐廳、源發粉麵檔、舊式理髮屋、傳統好紙紮舖作為展覽場地,預備了「九大簋」告別徙置生活的盛宴,讓大家共同細味。
Location: 牛頭角下村10座地下-興記茶餐廳、源發粉麵、銘成號
