【Episode Introduction】 From the perspective of "seascape," how does it differ from "landscape" in our understanding of the world? If the identity is inherently tied to our ways of perceiving the world, does a shared bodily experience of the South exist? Join us in this captivating episode to explore these questions with Taiwanese curator JowJiun Gong and Nadia Huggins, the artist who was born in Trinidad and Tobago and grew up and is currently based in St. Vincent and the Grenadines. Together, they engage in a stimulating conversation about fluid identity, seascape epistemology, and the liberating and "true" experiences found in the water captured through Nadia's works. By sharing their personal journeys as misfits and challenging the existing norms of the world, they invite us to reflect upon our own perceptions. Diving into the sea, we are reminded that the unseen essence of things is waiting to be discovered. 【節目簡介】以「海景（seascape）」的視角認知世界，與「地景（landscape）」有何不同？「南島語族」、「泛南島」、「全球南方」這些或相異、或相似、或互為修正的概念，其緣起不離過去北方帝國主義之下的殖民統治與文明進步觀的傳播，衍生出尚待回復、重建的認同。而倘若認同的建構，總是連結著感知世界的方式，那麼是否存在「南方」共有的身體感？本集邀請臺灣策展人龔卓軍與出生於千里達、成長及居住於聖文森的藝術家Nadia Huggins，分享各自曾經「不合群」的生命經驗，並對世界既有的尺度發起反思，藉由異於大陸的島嶼身體感，找到多重且流動的認同與受壓抑而遭忽視的主體性。從陸地潛入海洋，提醒我們，所謂事物真實的面貌，其實從來未見。 Capturing “true experience” in the sea — the discovery of the fluid identities of the South 【Outline】 03:50 The fluid identity; losing a sense of belonging 07:15 Diving into the Sea: the metaphor for the Caribbean culture; A space of returning the true essence of ourselves. 10:40 Seascape*; *Surfers’ knowledge of the sea 11:35 The Caribbean’s cultural relationship with the ocean 13:16 The immersive experience of the Seascape; liberative experience for the individuals 15:00 Orchid Island: Tao tribe’s long history in diving and fishing; Syaman Rapongan’s writing of the ocean against the mainstream culture in Taiwan 17:00 Movement of the body in the water captured by the technology; recording and experiencing the “true experience” 18:30 The poetic moment 19:45 A space of becoming something; Capturing the unseen moments in between 21:05 The universality of human experience: blurring the image of the body creates the focus on humanity; the interplay with the environment 23:10 The uniqueness: the particular body movement in the Caribbean where different cultures melt 24:45 The coexistence of the universality and the uniqueness; New ways of reimagining what the Caribbean and the world can be in the future 26:55 New perspectives of the body; #Me Too movement in Taiwan 【Guests】 JowJiun Gong Professor, Doctoral Program in Art Creation and Theory, Tainan National University of the Arts.
