Cinema played an important role in shaping the imaginaries of African modernity. It acts simultaneously as an architectural apparatus through movie theatre houses, narrative devices through film scenes, and an intricate play of light and shadow. Cheikh Ndiaye’s paintings depict former movie theatres, urban environments, scenes from classical movies, and informal vendors’ street kiosks in African cities. His installations relate to the experience of the city and its cinematic character while serving as archives of the vernacular ingenuity of the Global South. His installation Le Paris (2024), presented at the Busan Biennale 2024, recreates a neon sign of a new demolished cinema in Dakar. Defamiliarised and placed in a neu context, the sign might evoke dreams of urban modernity as well as the soundtrack of Dlibril Diop Mambety's movie Touki Bouki (1973), in which Josephine Baker's song Paris… Paris (1949) underlines the hero's hesitation on whether to emigrate or to stay in Senegal. A scene from the same movie also appears in his paintings Stolen Car (2022) and Kanaga Girl (2022) evoking the fleeting emergence of memory. His artistic practice is a constant interrogation of the dialectical relationship between the imaginary and the real.

A Hollywood Dialectic from Community Building Arts, Hiram College 2010.

Lacan promotes the use of capitalist libertarianism to deconstruct sexist perceptions of sexual identity. But the primary theme of McElwaine’s[8] model of the subcapitalist paradigm of narrative is the absurdity, and some would say the futility, of dialectic class.

Left at its wits endI .

.

Friends, 01/09/2007 .

The agony of the Left is understandable. But there is no sympathy for it because of the .

duplicitous role it has been playing for the last three years. Only that the Prime Minister's blunt .

statement asking it to shut up or get out has made its position untenable. .

If the Left is serious about opposing the nuclear deal in particular and the US hegemony in .

general, it has no other option but withdraw support to the UPA government. Now It does not even .

have the fig leaf of the Prime Minister's confusing and misleading statement ln Parliament on August 13, to .

postpone the painful decision. The PM's idea was largely Intended to cajole the Left. But within 24 hours of .

the Prime Minister's statement the US State Department has made a clarification, which in a way snubbed .

and called the Manmohan bluff. For the Indian audience it came as a reality check. .

There is no way now for the Prime Minister to pretend that the deal is in India's interest. .

This is a one-way street where only the big bully has all the right of way. Our nuclear energy will .

com e after ten years when the domestic demand will be ten times more than the projected .

capacity. Furtller, before that if India pursues the fast breeder technology, we will be a leader in the field .

and produce cheaper energy. This will be the way to make use of the huge thorium reserve, which India has .

in bounty. The nuke deal will cripple us. .

Knowing all this Manmohan Singh is going ahead, to put it mildly, as the CPM general secretary .

Prakash Karat has said, because the Prime Minister is very sensitive when it comes to his relations with the .

US. .

The deal and the Prime Minister's hard talk have given a golden opportunity for the Left to introspect. No longer can the comrades continue to enjoy power without accountability the way they have been doing all these years. If the deal is through they will have to own up responsibility for allowing 1t and torpedoing the un1ted oppos1t1on of the maJonty of Ind1ans both ms1de ana outs1ae Parliament. For it is no joke that the long nurtured national consensus on foreign policy is finally and fully undermined by the UPA supported by the Left. The consequences will inevitably follow. .

The challenge the Left is facing today is not so much of national import. It is its own existential problem, of honouring its own ideology and convincing its cadre that the leadership has not become revisiontst and traded off its solemn commitments at the altar of expediency. .

For long now, the trade union and youth wing supported by its 'intellectual ideologues' have been convinced that the UPA has forced the CPM and its allies to repeatedly compromise on the CMP and that this supplication has started eroding the credibility of the leadership in the eyes of the cadre. .

The big mall revolution of India, in which millions of small traders and farmers are losing their .

livelihood and economic freedom, is taking place with the Communists only making incoherent noises. The bourgeois media will titillate the comrades saying that they are calling the shots. But reality is different. Manmohan Srngl1 has adopted a pro-capitalist anti-common man policy throughout the tenure. Look at the hundreds of SEZs l11s government has sanct1oned, which in most cases is nothing but brazen land grab by big corporates. The Left was not able to stop majority stake for foreign companies in telecom, insurance, housing, health care etc. It could not stop privatization of a1rports and foreign investment in media or other sensitive areas. It had promised to ensure better PF interest rates and cheaper loans to the middle income groups. The reverse has happened. It had promised to bring more people under the reach of fair price shops and provide cheaper food items through them. Again the reverse is the result. Indian agriculture is in a terrible mess and food security has become a dream now. .

Where has the Left advanced its agenda? Only, in the education sector where many of its fellow travellers found lucrative reemployment. The UPA has left the education in total chaos. And Left's more vociferous NGOs like Sahmat fattened their coffers wtth sarkarr larges~e. lls publtc.Jttons, pdrlr Lt.k. ... ,.;,lut, channels made huge money through government and public sector advertisements and patronage. All these have made life more comfortable for the comrades. It also succeeded In advancing its divisive agenda through fomenting caste and communal discrimination, promoting minority separatism with government aid and reaping some political mileage in the process. Uke getting terror accused Madhani released, delaying the hanging of Afzal, soft-pedalling on serial terror attack investigations. Are these enough to convince the cadre of the smcerity of the Left to its adherence to party manifesto? No. The CPM is a divided house in all its strongholds. Money has come to micromanage the party. Tycoons with dubious antecedents have the guts to dictate terms, even castigate its, own chief ministers, like In Kerala. .

The nuke deaI and the Prime Minister's tight fist have at last brought the party tts moment of truth. Congressmen are toasting their PM for his tough talk. Even Sonia Gandhi, comrades' last abode of appeal, has thrown her weight behind the deal. Can the comrades brazen out this ignominy? However much they try to deceive themselves and present a brave front invoking dialectical pusillanimity, the lack of scruples will .

Animism and therefore cannibalism.

 

"I am food!"

 

Animism is the truth not because there are little bits of qualia inside "objects" but because "objects" are stories about qualia or sensation.

 

Perhaps this is what Marx and Engels meant by dialectical materialism, and perhaps what Leibniz meant by monads and 'panpsychic idealism,' though I have read neither, and only skimmed Mach and Nishida. But then, it is right here.

Built over the Louvre fortress (itself founded by Philip II in 1190), the Louvre Palace was the chief residence of French kings from 1546, under Francis I until 1682, when Louis XIV moved to Versailles. Although Louis moved the household, the royal collection remained in the palace and in 1692 it was joined by the Académie des Inscriptions et Belles-Lettres and the Académie Royale de Peinture et de Sculpture, remaining there for 100 years. The palace became a museum following the French Revolution, at the instruction of the National Assembly, and the Musee du Louvre opened 10 August 1793.

虛擬生肉:如何重構被抹滅的台灣越南難民營

 

立方計劃空間榮幸與講美難民檔案協會合作於2025年9月20日起舉辦展覽「虛擬生肉」的台北巡迴展。由陳泓易策展,劉吉雄擔任主題藝術家的「虛擬生肉」之前曾於高雄市立美術館展出,台北巡展將以較為精簡的方式呈現。

 

「虛擬生肉」展覽起源於紀錄片與VR導演劉吉雄在1995年的夢境。2003年他首次拍攝,之後經過十年的無知與空白,2013年起陸續發展出紀錄片、實驗電影、VR電影與VR博物館計畫(2012-2025)。這檔展覽首次將這些不同版本與多種形式的作品匯整在一起,呈現一段從「不知道不知道什麼」到「知道不知道什麼」的探索歷程。作品邀請觀眾一起重拾那些被害怕遺忘、被害怕記得的片段——可見與不可見的記憶,漂流在半島與大海之間。

 

展覽同時呈現與澎湖難民營相關的珍貴作品,其中包括越南音樂家黎盈(Lê Dinh, 1934-2020)於 1978年在營區創作的〈無家可歸者的情歌〉;加拿大記者舒楠德(Jules Nadeau)與越南裔攝影師李培徽的攝影作品;以及《南海血淚》(1978)作者李元平的影像口述。

  

策展論述

(文/陳泓易)

 

虛擬生肉——如何建構真實

 

本展覽以「虛擬」(VR)為核心,企圖以此反思[虛擬](VR)的多重意涵.而[生肉]的概念來自於身體哲學incarnation的詮釋,在字面上,incarnation就是從抽象概念賦予「肉體」。

 

導演劉吉雄在夢境中得知一個位於澎湖的難民營將被拆除,於是他親赴現場,還來不及做研究調查與記錄,難民營就消失了,從此開始一段至今長達二十多年,由檔案出發,重建這個難民營的拼湊還原過程。

 

劉吉雄的創作夾雜紀錄片的寫實拍攝和虛擬實境的建構,從夢境的虛擬,難民營從真實到消失成為虛擬,以及重構事件的過程,讓整個發展從虛擬到真實之間反覆循環論證出某種詩意。

 

這個曾經存在澎湖的難民營卻不被台灣以外的任何機構承認——特別是聯合國難民署。因此今天這個難民營可以說是一個在紀錄「歷史」上「不存在」的事件。此事件本身更是一個真實事件被政治虛擬化的荒謬吊詭,而藝術家努力將此被虛擬化的真實還原,並且以虛擬的媒體技術呈現成為一個藝術展覽。

 

「真正的歷史對象根本就不是對象,而是自己和他者的統一體,或一種關係。在這樣關係中同時存在著歷史的實在以及歷史理解的實在。」這是詮釋學解釋的歷史,認為歷史不是可被如實重現的客體,而更是在文本中不斷被延異的一種存在。

 

我們一直說台灣好像是個亞細亞的孤兒,但劉吉雄認為:我們除了是孤兒,可能還是難民。

 

一種被延異的難民。

澎湖難民營與《國界上的漂流者》對談

 

時間:2025.10.17(五)7pm

地點:洪建全基金敏隆講堂(100台北市中正區羅斯福路二段9號12樓)

 

「澎湖難民營與《國界上的漂流者》對談」是一場跨越歷史與地域的藝術對話。紀錄片與VR導演劉吉雄, 以二十餘年的田野調查,結合紀錄片、虛擬實境與影像裝置,重構 1977 至 1988 年間幾乎被抹去的澎湖越南難民營景象。這不只是追索歷史的行動,更是以藝術介入記憶的實驗,讓不可見的澎湖難民營歷史重新發聲。

 

與會的《國界上的漂流者》團隊,則以文字記錄十位無國籍者的真實故事,揭示當下全球超過一億兩千萬被迫離散人口中,那些在國界與法律縫隙中漂泊的生命。他們的處境與數十年前澎湖難民營中的故事遙相呼應,映照出人類在戰爭、政局與制度夾縫下共同面臨的流離失所處境。

 

本次對談不僅回望台灣被遺忘的難民史,更將此經驗置入國際視野:在全球難民與無國籍者人數持續攀升的今天,藝術如何成為跨越疆界的語言,讓被忽視的記憶進入公共討論?現場將透過影像片段朗讀與深度對話,探索藝術與出版作品如何連結世界各地的漂流者,並啟動制度與社會的反思。

Virtuality Embodied

 

TheCube Project Space is honored to collaborate with the Chiangmei Refugee Archive Association (CRAA) in presenting the Taipei edition of Virtuality Embodied from September 20, 2025. Curated by Chen Hung Yi with Asio Liu Chihsiung as the featured artist, Virtuality Embodied was previously exhibited at the Kaohsiung Museum of Fine Arts and will be presented in a more streamlined form in Taipei.

 

The exhibition Virtuality Embodied began with dreams that filmmaker Asio Liu Chihsiung had in 1995. He first filmed it in 2003, and after a decade of knowing nothing, he developed new works over the following years—documentaries, experimental films, VR 360 film, and even a VR museum (2012-2025). This exhibition is the first time these many versions and forms are shown together. They reflect a journey from “not knowing what we don’t know” to “knowing what we don’t know.” The works invite us to collect fragments—memories feared to be forgotten, memories feared to be remembered, things visible and invisible, drifting between the peninsula and the ocean.

 

The exhibition also uncovers rare works related to the Penghu refugee camps. Highlights include Love Song of the Displaced (1978), composed by South Vietnamese musician Lê Dinh (1934-2020); photographs by Canadian journalist Jules Nadeau and Vietnamese-born photographer Li Pei-Hui; and video testimony from Li Yuan-Ping, author of Tears and Blood in the South Sea (1978).

Curatorial Statement

By CHEN Hung Yi

 

Embodying Virtuality: The Way to Reality

 

Anchored in “virtuality,” this exhibition unfolds as a retrospective reflection on its many implications. Drawing on the philosophical notion of “incarnation” as a lens for thinking through bodies, Raw Meat—a literal rendering of the title—insists on the weight, flesh, and presence of abstract concepts: a gesture toward em-body-ment.

 

Director Asio Liu Chi-Hsiung was compelled to visit a refugee camp site in Penghu after dreaming of its impending demolition. The camp vanished before it could be thoroughly investigated or documented. Since then, a project of rebuilding, piecing together, and restoring the refugee camp lasting more than 20 years began.

 

Liu’s works, which combine documentary filmmaking and virtual reality building, express a poetic vision grounded in the dialectical relationship between virtuality—the refugee camp becoming a mirage after its actual existence—and the reality—the restoration of the refugee-related events and memories.

 

This once-existing refugee camp in Penghu, however, is not recognized by any organization outside of Taiwan, including the United Nations Refugee Agency. As a result, it has become an “incident” that officially “does not exist” in the historical record. This absence underscores a paradoxical absurdity: a real event rendered virtual due to political circumstances. The artists in this exhibition seek to actualize that virtualized reality through artistic works and digital virtual technologies.

 

The true historical object is not an object at all, but the unity of the one and the other, a relationship in which exist both the reality of history and the reality of historical understanding. From a hermeneutical perspective, history is not a self-contained object to be faithfully represented, but a mode of being that continues in and through texts—mediated by différance.

 

Taiwan is often regarded as the orphan of Asia; yet in Liu’s view, beyond orphans, we might also be refugees—those who are endlessly in defer[ral/ence].

Event

Talk: Vietnamese Refugee Camps and Drifters on the Border

Date: Friday, 17 October 2025, 7:00 PM

Venue: Hong Foundation

 

Vietnamese Refugee Camps and Drifters on the Border is an artistic conversation that bridges history and geography. Director Asio Liu Chihsiung, who works in documentaries and VR, reconstructed the nearly erased scenes of the Penghu Vietnamese refugee camp from 1977 to 1988. He did this by using over two decades of field research and combining it with documentary film, virtual reality, and video installations. This isn’t just an act of tracing history; it’s an experiment in using art to intervene in memory, allowing the invisible history of the Penghu refugee camp to speak again.

 

The team from The Drifters on the Border recorded the true stories of ten stateless individuals, revealing the lives of those drifting in the gaps between borders and laws. They are part of the more than 120 million people who are currently displaced worldwide. Their situation echoes the stories from the Penghu refugee camp decades ago, reflecting the shared plight of human displacement caused by war, politics, and systemic gaps.

 

This dialogue not only looks back at Taiwan’s forgotten refugee history but also places this experience in an international context. As the number of refugees and stateless people continues to rise globally, how can art become a language that crosses borders, bringing overlooked memories into public discussion? The event will use video clips, readings, and in-depth dialogue to explore how artistic and published works connect drifters around the world and prompt institutional and social reflection.

Pacific Crest Detox

 

Business Overview

Pacific Crest Trail Detox is an eleven-bed detox center situated in a house, designed to provide a home-like yet fully medical (ASAM III.7) environment for clients seeking recovery. The facility is staffed 24/7 with Registered Nurses, ensuring high-quality medical care. Providers round on patients daily, and the tech staff contribute to creating a comfortable environment by preparing home-cooked meals three times a day. To foster early recovery, clients participate in one to two group sessions daily. The organization’s primary focus is client care, guided by owners who are long-term recovery advocates and experienced addiction counselors. They believe in a compassionate yet firm approach to recovery, encapsulated in their philosophy of “Love with an edge.”

Levels of Care

Pacific Crest Trail Detox offers a continuum of care designed to meet the diverse needs of clients. The Medical Detox program provides full medical support to ensure safe withdrawal management, while the Sub-Acute Detox option is tailored for individuals who require less intensive medical oversight. The Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) offers a structured day program that balances intensive care with flexibility, while the Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) integrates structured support into clients' daily lives. The Outpatient Drug Program accommodates clients with specific scheduling needs, including those participating in DUII programs. To support ongoing recovery, the center also provides drug rehab aftercare opportunities, offering alumni resources and guidance to prevent relapse and maintain progress over the long term.

Key Services and Therapies Offered

Pacific Crest Trail Detox offers a comprehensive range of evidence-based therapies, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to reframe negative thought patterns, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) for emotional regulation, and Seeking Safety, a trauma-focused approach that prioritizes coping and safety. Trauma-focused therapies address underlying issues, while the 12-Step Model introduces clients to foundational recovery principles.

Complementary therapies include motivational interviewing, mindfulness and meditation practices, art therapy, and psychoeducational groups. Gender-specific programs ensure tailored support in safe and focused environments.

What We Treat

Pacific Crest Trail Detox offers comprehensive and compassionate care for individuals facing challenges with a wide range of substances. These include alcohol, benzodiazepines, cocaine, methamphetamine, opiates such as heroin, fentanyl, and methadone, marijuana, and other substances.

The Pacific Crest Trail Detox multidisciplinary team recognizes that addiction doesn’t happen in isolation—and neither should recovery. Sustainable healing requires identifying and treating the underlying emotional and psychological factors that may contribute to these struggles. By combining evidence-based therapies with personalized care plans, Pacific Crest Trail Detox ensures that clients receive the targeted support they need to heal—mind, body, and spirit.

Mission and Philosophy

At the heart of Pacific Crest Trail Detox’s mission is the belief that addiction is a treatable disease and that recovery is possible with the right support. The center is committed to being the last treatment experience for its clients, offering personalized care that fosters resilience, self-love, and hope. Guided by their philosophy of “Love with an edge,” Pacific Crest Trail Detox provides compassionate care while maintaining the boundaries necessary to encourage growth and accountability.

Their commitment to continued care is grounded in the understanding that detox alone has a low success rate, and they strongly advocate for comprehensive, long-term support to ensure lasting recovery. By helping clients discover healthy and fulfilling ways to enjoy life, the center empowers individuals to create their path to recovery and build a future free from addiction.

The Growth Piece was an interactive time-based sculpture which involved bowls filled with native prairie grass seeds, which viewers were encouraged to remove from the gallery and plant in their chosen location. This created a useful dialectic between the typically austere gallery space and the natural world just beyond the doors.

What fascinates me about the "centro" is how the buildings form a gigantic maze-like structure. The height of the walls, in contrast to the narrow streets and short inhabitants, creates a dialectic of domination and safety. If street signs didn't exist (and often, in Siena, they don't), there would be no way to know where you were going until you actually got to an intersection or a dead end. It's wonderful. It's almost like a city created for wandering. 

Are you looking for the best EMDR therapy in San Francisco? We have evidence-based methods to get your mind, body, and spirit back into your control. Our therapists integrate evidence-based approaches to the treatment of trauma, including dialectical behavioral therapy, cognitive processing therapy, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). We also provide EMDR for clients who are working with another therapist and want to integrate EMDR into their treatment. For more Info, Visit at www.drcammy.com/services/therapy-and-emdr

"The Fontana Maggiore, a masterpiece of medieval sculpture, placed in the centre of Piazza IV Novembre (formerly Piazza Grande), is the monument symbol of the city of Perugia.

 

The fountain was prepared in a workshop and then assembled in the centre of the square; it was made of stone from Assisi. The fountain consists of two concentric polygonal marble basins, on top a bronze cup (by the artisan Rosso Padellaio from Perugia) decorated with a coloured bronze group of feminine figures (perhaps nymphs) out of which comes the water.

 

The lower basin is made up of 25 mirrors, each divided into 2 tiles that describe the 12 months of the year, each of which is related to a zodiac symbol. Each month is connected to scenes of daily life and the characteristic farming work. As in other contemporary sculptures from Europe, in which the months are represented, here the manual work obtains dignity.[5] In this basin manual labour is in fact represented together with the arti liberali (liberal arts), with philosophy, with characters from the Bible and the history of Rome; in this specific order:

 

• The month of January (a gentleman and his wife at the hearth – Aquarius)

• The month of February (two fishermen - Pisces)

• The month of March (the "spinario" and the pruning of the vineyard - Aries)

• The month of April (two allegories of spring - Taurus)

• The month of May (two Knights on Falconry - Gemini)

• The month of June (the harvest and flailing - Cancer)

• The month of July (the threshing and the division of wheat - Lion)

• The month of August (the fig harvest - Virgo)

• The month of September (the crushing of must - Libra and the grape harvest)

• The month of October (the filling up of casks - Scorpion and the construction of casks)

• The month of November (the ploughing - Sagittarius and the sowing)

• The month of December (the slaughter of the pork - Capricorn)

• The Lion Guelph and the Griffin of Perugia

• Grammar and Dialectic

• Rhetoric and Arithmetic

• Geometry and Music

• Astronomy and Philosophy

Two eagles, on the right one the signature of Giovanni Pisano

• The Original Sin and the expulsion from Eden

• Samson kills the Lion and Samson and Dalila

• David triumphant and Goliath defeated

• Romulus and Remus (represented as two falconers)

• The she-wolf that fed Romulus, Remus and their mother Rea Silvia

• Two of Aesop's fables (the fox and the crane and the wolf and the lamb)"

There is a good principle which created order, light and man, and an evil principle which created chaos, darkness and woman-Pythagoras Woman, the other of man has been historically and socially viewed as the darkness as this quote depicts. The identity of female is marked by the absence. The qualities which are attributed on man like virility, intellect, courage etc, female is defined by the absence of them. It is an originary absence in the sense that the encounter with ones own self is always mediated through the dominant-hegemonic social structures. Simone writes in the Second Sex, Man thinks himself without the body of the woman, whereas the womans body seems devoid of meaning without reference to the male

she is nothing other than what man decides. She determines and differentiates herself in relation to man

She is the Other. The alterity which is ascribed to female brings about a different conception of the self which is not absolute or abstract but which is very much embedded in the concrete and subtle social forces. As a feminist, the question before Simone is the analyses of this situated self of the female. She analyses it through unfolding the social forces which mark the body of female into the dominant patriarchal social order. She therefore is not born but made as woman. The objectification of female through patriarchy converts her into an entity where the meaning and values of her existence are derived by the norms and ideals of patriarchal order. The images of Seeta and savitri and other chaste women in Indian society which remains encoded in the patriarchal framework and ingrained in the psyche of girls through various institutional mediums like family, religion becomes the sort of Superego for the females. So female has to assume the role models provided by the patriarchal set up otherwise it results in the guilt, a loss of the sense of the self. Simone points out at this predicament when she says, she discovers and chooses herself in a world where men force her to assume herself as Other: an attempt is made to freeze her as an object and doom her to immanence, since her transcendence will be forever transcended by another essential and sovereign consciousness. The present talk will discuss the various issues which remains crucial even after her demise. .

1-The life as acknowledged by her in autobiography, interviews and letters and the life as lived by her which she has not acknowledged yet we can delve into it through other sources. .

2-The dialectics of engagement with Jean Paul Sartre, her life partner. Whether she is the thinker who is influenced by Sartre as she herself acknowledged or she is an independent thinker from whom Sartre has taken the many insights and later appropriated them? .

3-Feminism as existentialism or otherwise? .

There was once a man who lost his shadow. I forget what happened to him, but it was dreadful. As for me, I've lost my own image. I did not look at it often; but it was there, in the background, just as Maurice had drawn it for me. A straightforward, genuine, "authentic" woman, with out mean-mindedness, uncompromising, but at the same time understanding, indulgent, sensitive, deeply feeling, intensely aware of things and of people, passionately devoted to those she loved and creating happiness for them. A fine life, serene, full, "harmonious." It is dark: I cannot see myself anymore. And what do the others see? Maybe something hideous. .

. Simone de Beauvoir, The Woman Destroyed 14 April this year commemorated the 26th death anniversary of French feminist and existentialist Simone de Beauvoir. She expounded major existential themes in her novels and writings, demonstrating her conception of the writers commitment to the time: It is in the knowledge of the genuine conditions of our lives that we must draw our strength to live and .

The Education Relief Foundation, ERF, Dec 7-8, 2017, A two days event in Geneva on Balanced and Inclusive Education.

ERF's Mission is to deliver, promote and embed a new, inclusive balanced education that enables young people to learn from the contributions of diverse civilisations and cultures.

ERF's balanced and Inclusive Education is based on four foci: intraculturalism, transdisciplinarity, dialecticism, and contextuality.
