AI 科幻、全景影像、虛擬現實
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。人類對生態的改造離不開文化深層記憶的投射與反思。“真實感”的營造，某種意義上是“那個世界”的裝飾性的表征，而人工智能正以一種大他者的“薄膜”覆蓋或接管了“真實世界”。本作以全景視聽裝置作為載體，爬取南洋華裔歷史空間中的全景圖像數據作為AI訓練模型，以科幻歷史想像為界，使用歷史上的失落與無法實現作潛能，擁有了書寫歷史的“特權“，並激活為一個可以被經驗到的考古現場。
AI Sci-Fi, Panorama, Virtual Reality
The word ”Lan Fang“ in the title of this work refers to the overseas homeland established by the Chinese in the 17th and 18th centuries on the island of Borneo in the South Seas, an ideal reality created by utopian impulses. The transformation of the ecology by human beings is inseparable from the projection and reflection of deep cultural memories. The creation of a sense of reality is in a sense a decorative representation of ”that world“, and artificial intelligence is covering or taking over the ”real world“ with a kind of ”film“ of ’the Other’. Using a panoramic audio-visual device, this work crawls panoramic image data from the historical space of Nanyang Chinese as an AI training model, and uses the lost and unattainable potentials of history as the boundary of sci-fi historical imaginaries, possessing the "privilege" of writing history and activating it as an archaeological site that can be experienced.
