時間：2017/07/22 （六）， 2-5PM
地點：台北當代藝術中心（台北市保安街49巷11號，捷運大橋頭站）
講者： 張竣昱、江昱呈
本活動將以中文進行
上半場：歪讀作品
這兩場的材料將延續先前的演講。本場先從作品開始，搭配社群網路tumblr進行歪讀，將性文化作為重要的詮釋參考。Tumblr是少數尺度大的公開社交網路，性視覺資訊活躍，是本場工作坊的重點。
下半場：動物戀連線工作坊
先前的講座分析了污名的擴延性跟超連結可以如何接合產生連線政治，但是作為檔案卻也有其侷限和困境。如果檔案庫無法被不斷更新，因應社會文化和科技進步而重組，就可能會面臨到連結斷裂的窘境，只能作為古老檔案的獵奇心態來待之，而其具有的檔案連線政治性策略將依時間而遞減其效力，因此練習如何持續演繹這些被污名的檔案是重要的。試圖靠著當下的機制來思考和想像可能的動物戀來擴延檔案包括的內容勢在必行，就如同當前不斷被擴充的同性戀其歷史檔案一樣，讓這些檔案多到不行，多到從異性戀的歷史遮蔽中外溢出來，擾亂既有的思考框架。這次工作坊將會帶來一些有關動物戀、人獸交討論的案例和問題，如果想要事前準備查找，底下也提供一些連結給大家認識，大家可以盡情連結出去，期待引發大家思考並在工作坊能夠一同討論，分享彼此在接觸相關檔案後，如何理解動物戀，此外也會分享個人現在正在思考的計畫。

關於講者
張竣昱，中央大學英文系畢業、藝術學研究所碩士生，「流行文化學院」網站成員。研究興趣包括酷兒理論、性／別政治、當代藝術、美術館和展覽中的文化政治、視覺文化理論、意識形態與歷史書寫。以恨作為心理動力才能寫作論述讀書進取的人。
江昱呈，目前就讀北藝大藝術跨域研究所，主修文化生產與策展，雜讀性／別、殘障研究和人類學、STS、文化研究相關領域文章理論書籍，但不一定讀得清楚。近期關注污名如何在特定情境底下來回滑移轉化的過程，同時反向作為積極串連他者的政治可能，但至今還在嘗試找尋自己的方法，正在學習該如何跟他人討論這樣複雜的關係網絡之間的矛盾和困境，我們可以有何準備。
關於辛沙龍
TCAC在2017年所全新推出的《辛沙龍》系列將首度嘗試透過展演情境創造和焦點議題的發展來輪廓未來政治的形貌。全年度的活動節目將從「身體政治」的再出發來思考各種切身於社會關係組織、政治權力的議題，從性和死亡等兩大軸線來探索不同文化如何理解身體作為當代社會中作為何種政治媒介、意識形態、文化符碼和結構規訓的載體。從而觀看身體在文化歷史上、在藝術文本中如何展現、交織、再現個體和集體的慾望和運作；在政治經濟上，又如何可能被歸納到各種被英雄化、神聖化、殘疾化、工具化、機械化、畸形化、妖魔化等狀態。這些身體政治的問題意識將引導我們重新關注並辨識自身現代化的真正起始點，並思索所處當代社會身體的病徵。相關的子題或將擴延至情慾、性別、身份政治、酷兒研究、女性主義、暴力、痛苦、死亡、後網路、賽伯客等，以長達兩年的時間來梳理關於身體實踐之徑。
辛沙龍系列關注如何在21世紀創造一種新型態的藝術沙龍聚會發表以滋養公共領域的知識生產與藝術實踐，讓藝術家與各界人士得以在一種共學、協作的過程裡展開長期對話性的研究討論、展示實驗、創意激盪並衍伸更多展覽形式以外的藝術言說方式來和觀眾／參與者進行溝通，演練奇想空間場域。這同時將作為TCAC開發公共領域擴延思索以及藝術實驗場的手段，刺激在地藝術社群擴延議題思想和跨文化交流的範疇，以此投射對藝術中心在空間敘事、身份功能、社群關係上的開放想像。

Section 1: Works Reading in Queer Approach
The content of two sections of the workshop will extend from the previous talk. This section starts from works. We will be doing queer reading together with the aid of Tumblr, by virtue of which sexual culture itself could be a magnificent reference for interpretations. Tumblr, one of few public social networks with prosperous visual sex information, is the highlight of the workshop.
Section 2: Zoophilia Coalescing Workshop
We analyze how the extensibility and hyperlink of stigma can produce political connections in the previous talk. However, there are also limitations when taking stigma as archives. If the archives cannot be updated continuously, reframed with cultural and technological improvements, archives might face the difficulty of being sources for coalition, thus only treated as old files as spectacles, and the validity of political coalition would decrease as time flies. Therefore, it is vital to practice and keep interpreting the stigmatized archives, to extend zoophilia and its related contents in archives within current institutions, up to horrifyingly huge amount that they might overflow from the heterosexual historical landscape, same as expanding homosexual archives in present disturbing ordinary frames. In this section, we will bring up some case and questions like zoophilia, beastality. There will be some links for acknowledging the relevant issue. You can share the links as you like. We are expecting your feedback in the workshop and your own understanding of zoophilia. Besides, I will also share some stuff in my current project.

About the Salon Spice
In 2017 TCAC is launching a new program series as an attempt to contour future politics by creating a tangible open space for connecting experimental displays and thematic discussions: the Salon Spice. Taking a departure from “body politics”, the Salon Spice will contemplate issues related to social organization and the distribution of political power from two main subjects “sex” and “death.” We will explore how bodies are at the center of this topic, subject to political agency, ideology, cultural symbol, structure and discipline across different cultures. Through a cultural and historical lens, we shall examine how bodies are presented and connected by their representation among individual and collective desires and manipulations in art. Politically and economically speaking, we will investigate how bodies are constantly labeled and classified as heroes, holy figures, witches, or the disfigured. The abnormal, alienated, instrumentalized or body-as-machine figures shall also be examined. These problematic topics will lead us to rethink and identify the real starting point for our very own modernization progress, and link with the symptoms of the contemporary social bodies. Related topics may also extend to eros, gender, identity politics, queer studies, feminism, violence, pain, death, post-internet, cyborg, etc.
The Salon Spice series suggests how to create a 21st century art salon that meets diverse variations of contemporary knowledge production, artistic practice and development of public sphere. It aims to create a co-learning collaborative environment and process for artists and other professionals by building conversations and navigating through research, display experiments, brainstorming, and other artistic communication beyond the form of exhibition-making, and together, exercising the space with fantasy and intervention. This could be considered as one of the strategies for TCAC to expand the public realm and art experimentation, providing a progressive platform for the local art community to explore ideas and intercultural exchanges that can be a part of the public imagination for the art center’s space narration, institutional identity, function and community.
