EX!T 15 第十五屆台灣國際實驗媒體藝術展－一隻狼在放哨

EX!T 15 – Experimental Media Art Festival in Taiwan 2025

一隻狼在放哨，凝神靜聽，萬物細微之情，之中或有危險時刻，鬆懈時刻，或生或滅的時刻。陣風吹來，一凜一暖，偶有獵人路過的氣息，天空藍藍地發亮，午後有陣雨，夜間有雙眼睛如星，伺機而動，舉起一隻相機對準的瞬間，人事物在蒼穹之下生活著。

今年 EX!T 影展榮幸地邀請台灣和美國的實驗導演來分享他們的作品。這些創作者長久以來堅持自己的藝術道路，默默行旅，如一隻孤獨的狼。一個人背著相機和腳架跋山涉水，一個人蹲在暗房裡調製藥水等待顯影，一個人伏在工作室畫台上逐格拼貼、逐幀拍攝，一個人駝身剪接。他們都是在資源極少的條件下，一匍一匐地完成了這些非凡的作品。

焦點導演：黃庭輔、鄭立明、劉易斯・克拉爾、嘉妮・凱瑟，將帶來精彩作品和分享創作過程。精選系列《台灣實驗者之電影修行》，展出從先鋒到年輕一代導演如：吳米森、黃庭輔、黃亞歷、林仕杰等創作；《美歐實驗動畫經典》收錄了美歐近代動畫大師如：萊恩・萊 Len Lye、史丹・范德比克 Stan VanDerBeek、羅伯特・布里爾 Robert Breer、艾德・艾姆什威勒 Ed Emshwiller、蘇珊・皮特 Suzan Pitt、貢沃・尼爾森 Gunvor Nelson、西川智也 Tomonari Nishikawa 等代表作。

影展題目靈感來自阿巴斯・基阿魯斯達米 Abbas Kiarostami 同名詩集。

一隻狼在放哨。在原野，在城市，在大螢幕上——

A wolf stands sentinel, listening intently, reading the subtle emotions of all things, moments of danger, moments of relaxation, moments of life and death. A gust of wind, chilling and warming, carries the occasional scent of a passing hunter. The sky glows a brilliant blue, afternoon showers arrive, and at night, eyes like stars await their opportunity. In the moment a camera is raised and aimed, people, things, and events live beneath the vast expanse of the sky.

This year, the film festival is honored to invite artist-filmmakers from Taiwan and the United States to showcase their films. These artists are committed to their artistic journeys, patiently forging ahead like lone wolves, carrying a camera and a tripod, hiking across mountains and rivers; crouching in a darkroom, mixing chemicals, waiting out the development process; creating collages, shooting frame by frame, and editing. All completed these remarkable pieces working with minimal resources.

Filmmakers in focus: Ting-Fu Huang, Li-Ming Cheng, Lewis Klahr, and Janie Geiser will present their films and discuss their creative processes. The “Taiwan Experimenters (I) and (II)” series features works by avant-garde and emerging Taiwanese directors, while the “American and European Experimental Animation” series includes works by Len Lye, Stan VanDerBeek, Robert Breer, Ed Emshwiller, Suzan Pitt, Gunvor Nelson, and Tomonari Nishikawa, among others.

The title of the festival was inspired by the poetry collection with the same title by Abbas Kiarostami.

A wolf on watch. In the wilderness, in the city, on the big screen——
