AI 科幻、三頻影像
本作品名“蘭芳”一詞,意指17-18世紀在南洋婆羅洲島上的華人建立的海外家園,一種烏托邦沖動營造的理想現實。歷史通過口述、傳說、儀式的方式不斷重新排演,「現實不是我們棲息其中的容器,而是我們依之而生的支撐,甚至是因我們而實現的東西」。人工智能以一種 “大他者”的形態,將人類文明建構的歷史成為整體的素材,本作試圖以藝術實踐的姿態,呈現文化中被隱藏在主流歷史之外的他者,在南洋華裔次族群文化的潛在空間中,發現一個可以被經驗到的中華歷史科幻。

The word "Lan Fang" in the title of this work refers to the overseas homeland established by the Chinese on the island of Borneo in the South Seas in the 17th and 18th centuries, a kind of ideal reality created by utopian impulses. History is constantly re-enacted through oral narratives, legends, and rituals, and "reality is not a container in which we reside, but a support upon which we live, and even something that is realized because of us". Artificial Intelligence takes the form of” The Other", turning the history of human civilization into the material of the whole. This work attempts to present the Other in the culture that has been hidden outside the mainstream of history as a gesture of artistic practice and to discover a Chinese historical science fiction that can be experienced in the latent space of the sub-culture of the Nanyang Chinese people.
