Workshop Video Archive 1 - 02.17.2008

( 呼!終於把檔案給傳上來了。因為小朋友要上課,自己也沒有機會參加workshop,千萬吩咐"一定要錄下來噢!"。自己看了之後,我想Por Que Base的大家,也應該有興趣看看。)

看videos之前,我先把Syko在workshop前寫的一些簡單對於它的期望與"Beauty"這個議題想做的一些研討。我將試著做簡單的翻譯:


por que base

work shop no.1 Aesthetics - “Beauty”

Concept of the work shop .

· To build a community consisting of people who are passionate about art & design.

· To share the resources, ideas, and inspiration.

· To support each other through encouragement and motivation.

知然堂工作坊的構想:

‧建立由一個對於藝術、設計熱愛者所擁有的平台

‧分享資源、想法和正面且激勵人心的事

‧經由鼓勵與刺激動力,相互給予支持

Objective of today’s work shop - Aesthetics - “beauty”

· To better understand how we view and judge what we see & feel.

今日主題: Aesthetic(我暫時不翻譯這個字)與 " Beauty" 美

‧讓我們可以更了解,我們是如何藉由眼裡看的心裡感覺的,去做觀賞與批判

Definition of Aesthetics : " Aesthetics" 的定義

1. The branch of philosophy dealing with such notions as the beautiful, the ugly, the sublime, the comic, etc., with a view establishing the meaning and validity of critical judgments concerning works of art, and the principles underlying or justifying such judgment.

哲學的分支之一,最主要是談到對於美麗的、醜陋的、崇高的、滑稽的...等等反應,做出見解。而這些見解,必須是意義堅定而結構分明,也必須有像礎石般的根據基礎,可以經歷測試考驗。( 換句話說,就是要"知然知其然及其所以然"的見解。)

2. The study of the mind and emotions in relation to the sense of beauty.

研究心靈與情感對於"美感"所產生的互動關係

3. The study of the psychological responses to beauty and artistic experiences.

研究心理學上對於美的或藝術的體驗所產生的反應

Definition of Beauty: 美的定義

1. The quality present in a thing or person that gives intense pleasure or deep satisfaction to the mind, whether arising from sensory manifestations (as shape, color, sound, etc.), a meaningful design or pattern, or something else (as a personality in which high spiritual qualities are manifest).

一件物或一個人所表現出來的質感,會給予他人在心裡上強烈的喜悅,或深刻的滿足。無論是感官上的表現,如形狀、顏色或聲音等,或是有意義的設計或圖樣,或是其他的。例如令人景仰或有高尚風骨的人格。

2. The quality that gives pleasure to the mind or senses and is associated with such properties as harmony of form or color, excellence of artistry, truthfulness, and originality.

有令人心喜神悅的品質,例如和諧的形狀或顏色、完美的藝境、作品的原創性等等。

Contemporary view of Beauty is not based on innate qualities but rather on cultural specific

我很努力的要把video直接貼上來,但是Yahoo的中文部落格和Yahoo英文Video好像雞同鴨講,一片空白。算了,請大家連結吧:

突然想到,這是沒經過剪輯編排的,只是把參加人員自我介紹刪掉,本中心不提供聯誼服務,還有,本中心亦不提供翻譯服務。不過,看影音論藝術學英文,則不額外收費。
