While seeing it as a matter of course through the process of producing, I realize that I rarely face up to anything irrelevant to my own life, even refuse it. Habitually deposing myself in a cocooned life as a fault, someone like me, but not an exact me, appears beside me, looks on myself, as a part which self is not just experiencing but viewing, passively, or perhaps not, but in a good condition, immediately hearing and seeing on the spot, or bending down and listening and looking actively. This self-listening brings the noise of a dialogue between me and the body, or multitudinous others inside my brain producing scenes and composition, so creations come into being.
This time follows the vein to date and the position in every time and everywhere, interweaves experimental movies from 2002 to 2004 and video works from 2003 to 2006 in between, plus discussion about the personal exhibition “ Oxy- Tseng Yu Chin” in IT park in Oct, 2003, through the works in which, expressing how I deal with images myself, present and composite the scenes in my brain, and the viewpoint of presenting images or practice.
The 1st chapter is about the meaning of self-others, and allegorizing the inside of the brain as an extended forest. These self-others are the chimeras in the forest, including the referables: the roles which adopts from parents’ life experience, friends who fantasized invisible friends in the childhood or casually drawn figures; or the anonyms: memorial chimeras permeate one another into new states, or hybridize, or agamic multiply.
The 2nd chapter describes the varied self-others wonder inside the brain like the chimeras, and come across one another in the extended forest, the inside of the brain, and the scenery comes into existence. Posit the scenes and noise behind into outside, the sudden picture in the moment, how I present it after its imaging in my brain, how I choose in the works, images and images and body, and the parts in between, and why I present the images like this, all because of the pictures from the chimeras.
The 3rd chapter is mainly about my personal exhibition in IT park “Oxy- Tseng Yu Chin”, how I present the space, that the works split up with me after being produced, the most perfect scene is unreplaceable, and what I have changed in my works, myself and outward.
The 4th chapter is a complete summary about the loss of chasing the split second of an image, the “hope” of the producing and thoughts from the works
