SynopsisA labyrinth of cables, cigarette butts lodged in concrete platform cracks, steel tracks superimposing the city's temporal strata.
Inspired by Chris Marker's fragmentary montage in La Jetée (1962), this work employs nonlinear editing methodology to reconstruct Hong Kong's tram culture as a contested vessel of identity. The tactile memory of industrialization emerges through textural layers: concrete's abrasiveness, sharpness of steel, accumulated paint strata and the vintage typography on trams while a sonic montage of track friction, cantonese announcements and street clamor creates temporal dislocation. These operations mirror the city's palimpsestic urban fabric, interrogating the 'ding-ding' tram's dual existence as both nostalgic relic and bleeding-edge signifier within neoliberal spatial politics.
无数节点交织的电缆，水泥站台裂缝中的烟头，钢铁轨道上重叠起香港这座城市。
受到 Chris Marker La Jetee (1962)中碎片蒙太奇的启发，我们试图利用这种非线性剪辑的 方法来重构独属于香港的电⻋文化，水泥的粗粝，钢铁的锐利，堆叠的油漆，电⻋上古早的字体，纹理的叠加呈现工业化的触觉记忆，轨道的摩擦，广东话播报，市井的喧闹构成声音，蒙太奇制造时空错位。同时呼应城市空间的重叠性，探讨“叮叮⻋”作为一种怀旧符号在当代的意义。
