2009 blog action day: Climate Change

  The environmental issue is very popular lately.We can find more and more movies and articles talk about concerning topics, such as “climate change” or “global warming”. I admit that we individuals need to take responsibility to preserve the environment of earth while most of us are not the experts of the environmentalism. Now that I would like to recommend some broadcasts which not only supply the persuasive argument but also enlighten us on the issue.

 “The Age of Stupid”:The movie which just had the worldwide premier on September 22 this year. The  story is with sarcasm voice, giving stern warning that how we unconsciously damage our environments gradually.  The story is about a man living alone in the devastated world of 2055, watching archive footage from 2008 and asking "Why didn't we stop climate change when we had the chance?", referring to the current global warming. In Taiwan you would through MOD to see this movie exclusively right now or check the website to get the vedio: http://www.ageofstupid.net/

A Letter to Taipei City Mayor-My view about public safety

Dear Mr. Mayor Hau Lung-bin, 

  I am only a small civilian in the big city. I’ve just read the news about the boom of a crane that plunged 37 floors from a construction project in Xinyi District and smashed the back end of a tour bus carrying 25 visitors from China, killing 2 passengers and injuring another on April 24. I am shocked and feel sorry about this tragedy. However, I think it’s not just operator negligence but also a problem about how the citizens in Taiwan lack a sense of public safety and social morality. I write this letter to give you my opinions and suggestions to improve public safety in our city.

One Taiwanese Cultural Milestone

 
  There are some important life events in each society, and Taiwan is no exception. The rite of passage that has become so popular recently for Taiwanese youngsters is traveling around the island, and they see the process as an important step towards growing up.

  In 2007 a movie entitled Island Etude was in Taiwanese theaters. The story followed a young man, Ming-hsiang, as he traveled around Taiwan on his bike. He biked to the most beautiful scenery in Taiwan, and from the journey he experienced something he never had before. There is a famous saying from that movie, “If you don’t do something now, you’ll never have the chance to do it in your life.” That movie touched so many young people in Taiwan, and it brought a trend of traveling around the island. Most of the youngsters ride bikes on their journey, as the main character did at the movie.

Why 'CAPE NO.7' catches so many eyes?

by 果子電影

Before last Saturday I went to see a movie “Cape NO.7” with my friend Melody, who we have known each other nearly ten years. I have to admit that at first I went to see the “Cape NO.7” just because I am curious about why the Taiwanese movie can get so popular and so hit, in either word of mouth or the box office. However, after I walked out of the movie theater, I realized why it could capture so many audiences’ eyes and touch their hearts. Here I would like to give some of my opinions of the movie as below.

讓消費更有意義─歡迎光臨公平貿易小店!



小妹最近在集中精力準備一件要緊事(很顯然,不是結婚!)所以此版有一陣子沒有新文章了,對常來這裡的朋友感到抱歉。但是我一直記得一件重要的事,值得好好動筆一番,與大家推廣、分享。那就是今年
510日的世界公平貿 “World Fair Trade Day”不管您之前是否聽過「公平貿易」這個名詞,但是這個助人自助對抗貧窮愛護生態的現代消費理念,非常值得參與、推廣呢!

慚愧的很,我是去年年底在香港買了一本雜誌U-Magazine翻看裡面的專題報導「樂活族必讀─公平貿易」這篇文章,才第一次聽到公平貿易商品這個名詞!

 

所謂的公平貿易,簡單來說是指透過消費特定之「公平貿易商品」,建立購買者與生產者之間的長期夥伴關係。不以接濟貧困為理念,而是用消費者自願購買的行為,支持貧窮的農民、工人自立:經濟弱勢者加入公平貿易組織(FLO),組織的營運與交涉過程中必須公開透明,為這些在現代商業社會中被邊緣化的生產者創造工作機會、給予他們更好的貿易條件,讓工、農免除價格波動的傷害與維持永續的生計,且確保他們是以友善環境的方式進行耕種(也是有機的、手工的...)

後知後覺─我所理解的「色|戒」電影

和一群影痴、媒體人當同事、朋友有時候是幸福的事,尤其當他們滔滔不絕討論週末剛看完院線電影那股子興奮神情,一針見血、毫不留情的展開脣槍舌劍的論戰,十分過癮。關鍵劇情竟也能專業的技巧避開,以免沒看的人掃了興致。像是《色|戒》這樣的熱門電影,他們自是不會放過這樣你來我往交鋒的機會。

我一向認為,院線電影是為了三項目的而存在,第一,約會的男女打發時間、交誼感情(順便牽牽小手)第二,注重特效與感官興奮的重口味族(總要超大螢幕、杜比環繞的超立體音效阿),第三,話題性、帶動風潮的電影,挾著造神明星熱、得獎連連和媒體炒作的氣勢和聲望,似乎不去看就無法在茶餘飯後、插科打諢間湊一嘴、成為資訊的先知者!

姑娘我因最近沒有固定的約會對象、看電影也從不以視覺感官滿足為指標、思想和教育也阻止我一窩蜂的跟人群鑽,所以雖然愛看電影,但進戲院多半是為了默默支持獨立或非好萊塢的電影繼續生存;我總以為這樣類型的電影較具創意、獨特,需要思考、能夠帶來的想法跟靈感也較多。流行跟風的電影我不會第一時間進戲院,即使李安導演這部眾所矚目的《色|戒》也是,前幾天我才進了二輪戲院嗑完了它。

比之其他商業電影,李安導演由《色|戒》受到的讚譽和聲望,絕對是實至名歸。就像是「餘音繞樑,三日不絕」的樂音,看完《色|戒》,腦中縈繞、迴旋的劇情影像、湧起的念頭竟然源源不斷,足見李安善於以鏡頭影像深刻鉤畫結構、人物的功力;無怪乎搜尋關於《色|戒》電影的部落格竟有數十萬筆之多,堪稱是2007年網友們最愛推薦、分享的電影!

誠實的逆言

開春第三天,是思索省察的好時刻。紅樓夢的一句對聯:「事事洞明皆學問,人情練達即文章」,很值得細細咀嚼思考,往年和來年的人際交往分寸拿捏。

 
[圖說]圓山飯店葫蘆型的窗戶景。


所謂的逆言,相對於美言,指得是逆耳之言,便是不順耳、不中聽的話。但加上了誠實兩字,整句的意涵便是「誠實的,但不中聽的話語」。即使「誠實為上策」,但八面玲瓏的社交高手一定會對即將說出的話有所修飾保留;而且縱使說得出口,對方也不見得有雅量承受,這就會壞了關係。試想下列情境:

近期觀展筆記─華麗巴洛克(1.13)、林亦華的水滸傳(1.04)

華麗巴洛克


[圖說]畫家Tizian畫的巴馬醫師圖,這也是我最喜歡的一幅,深思者的畫。

故宮最近頗受注目的藝術大展,主要展出維也納藝術史博物館、哈布斯堡王朝收藏的
15 世紀到近代 67 幅珍貴的圖畫,名家包括林布蘭、魯本斯、杜勒、提香等文藝復興後期、巴洛克時期的作品。

 

背景大致交代完,說說我的心得和喜歡的幾幅畫吧。

賞畫不是為了附庸風雅,而是可以一窺時代的況味和風格。文藝復興的名家古典均衡、大器、變革的時代的風采,像是拉斐爾、達文西集大成,使後人難以超越,緊追其後的巴洛克藝術也注重均衡和諧,但更強調描繪細膩的情緒和情感。

我最喜歡提香畫的醫師肖像,充分顯現人物個性的表現法。這幅和馬莉亞皇后的畫像都是灰黑色調,穩重平靜的姿態和表情,帶有凝重的使命感,是我喜歡的風格。

去投票吧,政治冷感的你。

 

除了中午跟同事出辦公室吃飯、可以在餐廳小館掃描一下新聞動態,我已經好久沒有坐在客廳前好好看新聞或是任何 SNG 的轉播;完全不知道教育部長杜正勝或是新聞局長謝志偉究竟妙語如珠或是語出驚人了哪些事情,或是藍綠之間口水戰的實況;也許對升斗小民來說,在乎的只是政局的安定,經濟發展,媒體炒作、誇張化下的「娛樂政治新聞」,只是茶餘飯後的消遣。 


消遣也好,直斥媒體為亂源發起拒看也罷,你也可以嘻笑怒罵,或是不去理會,甚至政治冷感也無所謂。
但是這些都沒有在禮拜六的立委選舉日不去投票來得糟糕!

 

為什麼?
