「臉的特寫是一個構圖,也是一面風景。人在一生中,可能只有三次機會長時間、認認真真地凝視另一張臉:嬰兒出生之時,與親人離世之際,還有就是電影中的臉部大特寫。」——蔡明亮
無論是在拍電影、作畫,還是在自己的生活中,蔡明亮導演一直特別關心「凝視」的概念,還曾為此專門拍攝了以13張臉的特寫為主體的電影(《你的臉》2018)。
蔡明亮發現,大部分人在一生中,可能只有三次機會長時間地、認認真真地凝視另一張臉:嬰兒出生之時,與親人離世之際,還有就是電影中的臉部大特寫,在充斥消費與快餐文化、生活被效率和資訊量制約的當代,凝視這個行為愈發難得,也更具特殊意義。

本次分享會——生命中的凝視,蔡明亮將與觀眾分享他的種種凝視方式,在凝視時對生命又有什麽樣的思考與提問。

War brought them together, a secret love tore them apart… —— Viji Krishnamoorthy
 Viji Krishnamoorthy was born in Ipoh, Perak to a Tamil father and Hokkien Chinese mother. She spent her early school years in Kuala Lumpur and then in Madras (as it was then known). She completed her tertiary education in the UK. She previously worked as a freelance writer for several magazines and this is her debut novel. The author is happily married with two children and lives in Kuala Lumpur; but enjoys spending time in London.
In her latest publication "912 Batu Road," the Iyers' and Tans' lives fracture during the Japanese invasion of Malaya, intertwining them in a treacherous struggle for survival. Parallelly, a modern romance between their descendants challenges tradition, while past betrayals haunt. Viji Krishnamoorthy's debut harmonizes captivating fiction with meticulous research on Malayan wartime heroes like Sybil Kathigasu, delivering a compelling narrative.
Join us on 9th September for a special book-sharing event with Viji Krishnamoorthy. The event will be hosted by Devina Sivagurunathan and promises an insightful discussion.

🌹 最好的告別:善終,讓彼此只有愛,沒有遺憾 @ 馮以量

「臨終一定要關懷,關懷不一定需要等到臨終。」—— 馮以量
有一種惋惜,叫做「失去後,才懂得珍惜」。就像花朵凋謝後,才懷念它曾經美麗綻放。一場離別,是不是表示我們需要完全放下,「切割」彼此的關係?還是允許我們懷有一絲絲的思念與記憶,來保留彼此的連接?
這場分享會,與馮以量一起探討如何珍惜生命中的每一場邂逅。

A Bold Push to Save the Malaysian Tiger: Operationalizing the Al-Sultan Abdullah Royal Tiger Reserve

Date/Time | 23rd Sept, 3.00pm

Speaker | Aby Zahrim Ismail, Wai Yee Lam, Justine Vaz
The establishment of the Tiger Reserve of 134,183 hectares in the heart of Pahang is one of the most exciting conservation actions in Malaysia in recent years. The new Tiger Reserve will bring into active management a remote rainforest refuge that, in combination with Taman Negara National Park and adjacent forest in neighbouring Terengganu, will connect an extensive tiger landscape. We believe it is a significant step forward to bring about natural recovery of the Malayan tiger in the wild. But this journey is just beginning – there is much to do to effectively operationalize the new protected area to realise this vision.  We have hope but we know that this is a race against time. This is a mission that calls for resources, trained personnel, practitioners and experts, and our deep resolve. 
In this talk, find out what is already being done on the ground and meet some of the people working on establishing the Tiger Reserve, neutralizing the threat of poaching, restoring habitat and wildlife populations, and optimizing benefits to local people.

這就是進化的奇妙之處。一個物種的存續,不是斤斤計較誰最強大誰的計畫最好,經常是一次次意外、錯誤與運氣的疊加。—— 牛油小生。
牛油小生,本名陳宇昕,畢業於新加坡南洋理工大學中文系。他曾任實驗室助理和記者,並著有《類似過敏症的布爾喬亞之輕》、《列車男女》、《阿卡貝拉》、《那些進化了的,以及......》等。
在新作《那些進化了的,以及......》,牛油小生探討進化是邁進或回歸的主題。他以文字融合人類歷史、記憶書寫、情慾之曖昧、城市觀察,再運用動物作為隱喻打造十四篇短篇小說,去直面人類與自然生態的共生關係與共存法則——競爭與犧牲之後,適者才能生存。
