📰 The dying teenager who wanted world peace and love
🀄 垂死少年但願世界和平愛相隨
📘《Ken的文法筆記 I.》即將出售(詳置頂貼文)
When Californian teenager Jeff Henigson was diagnosed with brain cancer and given two years to live, a children's charity granted him the wish of a lifetime. But Jeff didn't choose to go to Disneyland or meet his favourite footballer - Jeff just wanted world peace.
📌 人生無常,這篇文章主人翁就是一個例子。Jeff給診斷患有(diagnosed with) 腦癌(brain cancer),他的一生中唯一願望(the wish of a lifetime)是世界和平(world peace)。
In the summer of 1986, 15-year-old Jeff Henigson was riding his bike to the local electronics shop to buy the last part for a "super laser" he'd been building, when he was hit by a van.
"It's coming in the opposite direction and she doesn't see me and just smashes right into me," Jeff says. "And I'm launched, like a rocket, 10 feet backwards. I land on the back of my head."
Jeff wasn't wearing a helmet, and was knocked unconscious. A few hours later, he woke up in hospital. He seemed to be OK, though, so he was discharged the same day.
📌 在1986年夏天,他騎自行車時發生意外,被廂形貨車 (van) 撞到,由於他沒有戴安全帽(helmet),因此被撞到不省人事(knocked unconscious)。他幾個小時醒來,看似可以了,所以在同一天出院(discharged)。
But within a few weeks Jeff began having seizures and he returned to the hospital, this time to have a CT scan of his brain.
If it had shown injuries from the cycling accident, Jeff would not have been surprised. But the news was worse than that - the scan revealed a tumor.
"Two things went through my mind," Jeff says. "One was a plan to lose my virginity that summer. And let's just say that did not work out. The second was to complete my laser project."
📌 他在幾個星期内感到不舒服,回到醫院進行電腦斷層掃描(CT scan),竟發現掃描顯示他有腫瘤(美: tumor 英: tumour)
Jeff was an ambitious teenager, whose dream was to work for Nasa. He believed that the best way to impress them was to build "the most amazing laser" which could bounce a beam off of a reflector that had been left on the moon by Apollo 11.
But the laser was also a way for him to bond with his father, a distant figure, who had served with the US Navy in World War Two.
📌 這段講述Jeff的夢想:為太空總署(NASA)工作。他希望建造一個激光器,令NASA對他留下好的印象。這個項目也是個與他爸爸建立緊密關係(bond with his father)的方法。
"I didn't know at the time if that was because of the war or something else. But my father was separate, emotionally, from the rest of us. And I thought, 'Here's this thing we have in common. This fascination with science. This fascination with space.' And that's why I pursued it."
Though Jeff's father never mentioned his experiences in the Pacific when the nuclear bombs were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, he would talk, at length, about nuclear weapons, the nuclear threat and the US's relationship with the USSR. And this seems to have had an impact on Jeff.
📌 Jeff解釋他跟爸爸的共同點是迷戀科學(fascination with science)、迷戀太空(fascination with space)。他爸爸詳盡地談及核武器(nuclear weapons)、核威脅(nuclear threat)以及美國跟蘇聯的關係(the US’s relationship with the USSR),這對Jeff有影響。
"There was a fictional film in the early 1980s called The Day After. It was about the Soviet Union dropping nuclear bombs on the US. I was probably 11 years old, and I was scared out of my mind. I would often fall asleep at night and go straight into a nightmare about nuclear war," Jeff remembers.
Jeff hoped not only that he would get that dream job with Nasa, but that the organisation would start to work with the USSR rather than competing with it.
"Even when I was fairly young, I could see the potential for collaboration between the US and Soviet Union," he says. "It just never made sense to me that we were pointing nuclear weapons at each other, when we could be collaborating to do extraordinary things in space."
📌 Jeff 不但希望在NASA工作,而且希望NASA會開始跟蘇聯合作,在太空合作做非凡事情 (collaborating to do extraordinary things in space)。

“Let your eyes look straight ahead. Fix your gaze directly before you. Make the path of your feet level. Let all of your ways be established. Don’t turn to the right hand nor to the left. Remove your foot from evil.” (Proverbs 4:25-27 WEB)
God isn’t asking you to stare ahead into empty space. The truths in the passage above became very relatable to me because I have a 4 year old daughter. Learn why God asks us to look straight ahead, and more important, what are we supposed to look at in front of us, for our own good! ⬇️

Voices of Photography 攝影之聲
Issue 29 : #被攝影史──成為影像的台灣
History of the Photographed:
Taiwan as an Image
延續我們對於攝影史的關注,本期審視屬於我們自身的攝影經驗──被攝影的歷史。從台灣的殖民史出發,自十九世紀中葉以降歷經的人類學調查採集、二十世紀初隘勇線推進下的暴力顯影,到帝國博覽會裡的「台灣」意象與人種展示──這是一段最為系統性地將台灣影像化的初始時期。我們如何成為被攝影的對象?如何化為一具科學標本和一幅想像圖騰?如何在視覺上被納編(或排除)於國族與文化的整頓編程,並糾結至今?此一影像的潛歷史──被攝影的歷史──是我們返視「攝影史」的一處起點。
藉此,本期試圖反詰「歷史」,思考致使我們「成為影像」、「進入攝影史」的支配與佈局,嘗試突破以往「攝影(者)的歷史」框架,開啟我們的「被攝影(者)的歷史」覺察,或許將能發現對我們而言更為重要的攝影的歷史遺產,生成屬於我們的另翼影像史觀。
專題中收錄的影像與文論,標記了我們在「被攝影」的歷史經驗裡的複雜和衝突──我們從已故人類學者胡家瑜對早年台灣人類學田野調查至戰後發展的介紹專論開始,探看影像採集的知識化歷程及當代意涵;黃翰荻追尋日本人類學者鳥居龍藏與森丑之助在殖民年代的台灣原住民族群踏查足印,細述二人巨大的歷史身影;高俊宏在總督府「理蕃時期」的諸多「討伐」寫真帖中,重新諦視「歸順者」肖像裡的幽微目光;瓦歷斯.諾幹以解/反殖民書寫,展現自身與族人生命經驗裡實切的影像歷史感知;松田京子則以東京拓殖博覽會中對殖民地的活人陳列展演,析解形塑「台灣」的視覺策略。
本期Artist’s Showcase單元,我們與藝術家葉偉立進行長篇訪談,呈現他這些年來以行動介入所構成的獨特影像場域,記錄其未曾間斷的勞作沉思。而在影像論述單元,本期新闢由影像研究者李立鈞執筆的科學攝影專欄,揭示平時隱沒在科學實踐中的「影像問題」,首篇從圖繪細菌與拍攝細菌在十九世紀引發的論爭談起,一探科學家對於攝影「客觀性」的認知辯證。謝佩君接續前期對於影像/視覺理論的引介,深入闡論歐美學界近年如何反駁過去以視覺機具作為現代性發展的線性觀點。黎健強探究香港攝影源流的連載系列,揭載「作為影像的香港」在1850年代末首次出現於可供西方觀眾賞玩的遠東立體照片。此外本期亦特邀黃建宏撰文紀念近期辭世的法國哲學家貝拿爾.斯蒂格勒,記述其影像哲理綿延的技術與時間之論。
在本期出版(焦頭爛額)之際,也正是《攝影之聲》邁入第十年的開端,回想起來真是一段不可思議的旅程。感謝所有的讀者共同撐起這份小刊,也要再次感謝參與《攝影之聲》、支持我們的朋友與工作伙伴,給予我們面對艱困的勇氣,繼續在蜿蜒的道路上行進。

As we continue on the topic of the history of photography, we turn to our own photography experiences in this issue – our history of being photographed. It takes root in Taiwan’s colonial history, from the collection of anthropological surveys in the 19th century, to the acts of violence at the defence lines as they pushed on during the Japanese colonial era in the early 20th century, as well as the exhibition of the “Taiwanese” imagery and ethnicity at various expositions held during the Japanese colonial rule. These form the beginnings of a systematic effort to visualize Taiwan. How did we become the photographed, a scientific specimen, a totemic image? How did we become visually part of (or excluded from) the rectification process of nationality and culture, that continues to trouble us till now? The veiled history of such an image – the history of being photographed – guides the beginning of our journey of looking back at the “history of photography”.
With this, we attempt to cross-examine “history” and think through the control and disposition that led us into “becoming an imagery” and “going into the history of photography”, hoping to break free from the existing framework of “the history of the photograph(er)” and enlighten our awareness of the “history of the photographed”. We reckon this could allow us to discover the historical heritage of photography that is even more important to us and generate our very own alternative view of the history of photography.
The collection of imagery and essays in this series marks the complexity and conflicts in our historical experience of “being photographed”. We begin with the late anthropologist Hu Chia-Yu’s field research of Taiwan’s anthropology from the early years to the post-war period as we explore the knowledge-based development and contemporary meaning of imagery collection. Huang Han-Di traces the footsteps of Japanese anthropologists Torii Ryuzo and Mori Ushinosuke in their study of the Taiwanese indigenous peoples in the colonial era, detailing the historical impact that they had. Kao Jun-Honn takes a second look at the faint gaze in the eyes of those who had pledged allegiance, as captured in the many portraits of the “submissives” kept at the Governor-General’s office during the Japanese rule. Walis Nokan expresses his and his fellow people’s real perception of the history of photography as they had experienced it in his de-/anti-colonization writings. Matsuda Kyoko analyses the visual strategy of shaping “Taiwan” through the living displays at the Tokyo Colonization Exposition of 1912.
In this issue’s “Artist’s Showcase”, we feature an in-depth interview with artist Yeh Wei-Li, showing our readers his unique field of imagery that extends from his art of intervention, a record of his neverending contemplation with regard to labor and art. Moving on to essays on visual imagery, we present a new scientific photography column by imagery researcher Lee Li-Chun, who unveils the “imagery problem” that underlies scientific practice, beginning with cognitive dialectics of “objectivity” of photography by scientists that stemmed from the debate sparked by illustrating and photographing bacteria in the 19th century. Hsieh Pei-Chun continues with her introduction to imagery/visual theory from an earlier issue, and explains in detail how Western academia has refuted the existing linear view of visual machinery as a modern development. Edwin K. Lai’s series on the origins and development of Hong Kong photography tells us about the first 3D photograph from the Far East that aimed to entertain a Western audience with “Hong Kong as an image” in the late 1850s. In addition, we specially invited Huang Chien-Hung to commemorate the French philosopher Bernard Stiegler, who had recently passed, and the continuous techniques and time that stems from his philosophy of imagery.
At the same time as we (run off our feet to) prepare for the publication of this issue, Voices of Photography is going into its 10th year, and what an incredible journey it has been. We sincerely thank all our readers for keeping us going, and express our heartfelt gratitude once again to all our friends and partners who have worked with us and given us the courage to overcome our difficulties to march on on this winding road.

10 year old feet 在 Ray Mak Youtube 的精選貼文
Back in the days, around the time when YouTube was founded, before most of you were born, I used to Vlog a lot. I was a little ahead of my time because video sharing platforms were premature back then. I Vlogged so that I can remember my experiences back then. You'll get to know me better if you actually spend the time to watch this. If you do have the patience.
Episode 11 - Winter 2005
Continuation from Episode 10, this was my first snow storm. Snow storms really bring a lot of snow. It's mainly my school life, me chilling with my roommate Kurt. Attending free classical music concerts in my school. Checking out the frozen lake at my school and basically hanging out with friends during winter.
This is also where I met my friend Andrew, a Caucasian who can speak some chinese and my music teacher Clara Zhang.
Towards the end of the video was me and my group mate doing a project called Heelz. It's a special high heels for ladies that is actually good for their feet.
I spoke a few languages in this video, be sure to turn on captions.
Year : 2005
Location : Amherst, Massachusetts
Fan-Made Intro by Daniel Such

(Make me a nice short intro using the same audio and I'll feature you next)
This is my one remaining way to promote small channels as I've maxed out my Sub Counts trying to help out small YouTube channels (And getting hate at the same time)
