CAT Diary 3 - 365天的聖誕


365天的聖誕

在慕尼黑舊城區的Weinstr.大街,
有數間富德國南部特色的手工藝店鋪,
一年365天在櫥窗內陳例著各式各樣的箶桃夾子。

每次經過的時候,

你會感受到濃厚節日的歡樂氣氛,
一張張好友的親切臉孔湧現心頭,
家人的愛、關顧、歡笑聲、禮物…

還是…

有多少個聖誕夜,
平靜地獨自一人,
慨嘆著沒有珍惜過的相聚時光
或已失去了的友情,親情,愛情。

365 days Christmas

In the down town area of Munich,
there are some handicraft stores in southern Germany style located in Weinstr.
Nut crackers are displayed 365 days during the whole year.

Every time when you pass over,

Will you feel the happiness of the atmosphere of Christmas?
Faces of best friends, love and care of family, laughing, gifts...

Or

Every Christmas eve,
You are peacefully alone,
sorry about how many precious moments you have been missed,
sorry about the lost of friendship and love.

CAT Diary 2 - “夢”與“往事”


“夢”與“往事”

如果真是分不清,
就讓它分不清罷。

為什麼
歡樂的記憶,
在腦海變得模糊,
似真似假?

為什麼
受傷,
好像比快樂更深刻?

"Past Dreams" and "Past events"
Can we cheat ourselves that all the sad memories were just nightmares?
Can we make sure ourselves that all the good and happy memories were real past events?
Time pass fast.
Can you distinguish which are only dreams and which are real past events?

CAT Diary 1 - 慕尼黑crossover化蝶



慕尼黑crossover化蝶

Crossover,
折衷主義,
是否只是流行文化的符號,
還是可以產生出永恆的經典?
主流美學永遠是追求平穩,
Optimum point,
何時才能打披這個法則?

Munich crossover Butterfly Transformation

Playing a string version "Butterfly Transformation"
in Marienplatz, Munich.
("Butterfly Transformation" is a HK pop piece
by Denise Ho)
Can anyone feel the mood?
The motivation of performing crossover
is just trying to do something different.
Maybe we can create something new.

Crossover,
Eclecticism,
are only symbols in Pop culture,
or capable to create timeless masterpieces?
Mainstream aesthetic only pursure infinding the Optimum point,
When and where can we break this golden rule?
