I have an acquaintance who has been taking flat and uninteresting landscape photographs for over 10 years. Looking at the picture, I said rudely, “There is no growth or aging. This is a kind of miracle.”
But like the crust of a continent that stores enormous strain energy due to mantle convection, his photographs store and cultivate a lot of criticism as energy, and one day it may become a huge earthquake that shakes the world’s photography world.
But unfortunately, it’s unlikely that such a big event will happen while I’m alive.

鳥事接二連三地來,每天過得像個智障一樣。
沒想到,誠品台東店在這個月結束營業。
猶記得我當年幾乎是衝著這間誠品填統調的。
這次的歇業,多少也對應了我這些年在台東的處境。
從事鴿子這行,到台東還是一樣是隻鴿子。
不是打工度假背包客,也不是來圓夢的民宿或海景咖啡主人。
東海岸與縱谷平原是我們每天處理一堆麻煩事的地方,
領略欣賞美景是難得休息時才有的奢侈。
鴿子總有著不同於老百姓的無意義高標準要求,
別人衝康酒駕是我的事,請假後亂跑也是我的事。
到關於我自己的事時,就沒人在乎了。
只能在晚上沒人的辦公室用咖啡給自己找點樂子。
誠品敦南店也要在五月走入歷史。
去年返校受訓時,就特別抽空跑去那看了半個晚上的書。
自己畢業後並沒有在台北服務,
每次北上都是去享受潮流變化與文化衝擊。
討生活跟偶爾去玩是兩碼子截然不同的事,
當個台北的鴿子我想也不會多快樂,
但願我還是能夠在台東慢慢地找到自己的出路。

Leiden, November 2020
I often get suddenly interested in seemingly “normal” sights: pockets of delicacy and charm in the bland, mundane creases of the ordinary.
