工作坊意念及主辦
Herman Rahman

The aims of the workshop is to expand ideas around the archive, the limits, potential and looking at an archive as a departure point in one's practice. The workshop looks to view an archive as a means of not only preserving the past, but about modes of sharing the common. Participants are encouraged to build an archive, with the eventual goal of building up narratives using a common pool of images. The ideas around the workshop include authorship. multimodality, and appropriation, including the application of the archive in an art practice.

這個工作坊希望拓展關於檔案（Archive）的概念、界限，以及潛能，將檔案視為實踐的起點。這個工作坊嘗試將檔案看待成不只是紀錄過往，更是一種分享共同點的模式。參加者嘗試建立檔案，務求使用共同的影像庫敍事。工作坊的意念將包括著作權、多模態、以及挪用，包括將檔案應用在藝術創作上。
