CLOUDS FALL

2014
錄像 (28分00秒)
Video (28’00”)

CLOUDS FALL由一系列虛擬的畫面所組成,是對於地球在大肆破壞及暴力洗禮之後的生命狀態的幻想。

CLOUDS FALL和我之前的作品《九龍百哀圖》(2012)、 The Plastic Garden (2013)合起來就形成了一套實驗性的 machinima 三部曲。它們都是以電子遊戲《決勝時刻》(CALL OF DUTY) 中所取得的材料來創作。作品發掘遊戲中潛藏的陰暗面和詩意,同時藉著觀察和穿梭這些虛擬場景去喚起令人回味的相似效果。

CLOUDS FALL is a series of virtual tableaux, a speculative portrait of life on earth after mass destruction and its violent aftermath.

Together with ANOTHER DAY OF DEPRESSION IN KOWLOON (2012) and THE PLASTIC GARDEN (2013), CLOUDS FALL forms an experimental machinima trilogy that hacked and reworked materials from the video game franchise CALL OF DUTY, unearthing hidden ghosts and poetics, while creating evocative parallels through a kind of uncanny observation and navigation in the found virtual landscapes.
