王拓影像作品中平行而交错的发展叙事成为本书设计结构的灵感来源,贯穿全书的上下分隔还原了这种看似矛盾的叙事结构:中、英文字上下并行,文字诠释的两幅静帧图像上下平铺在对页之上。偶然打乱排版规律的大面积银墨印刷色块则模拟了王拓作品中的叙事断裂与历史失忆。每部影像的作品信息打散分布在三页纸张上的固定节奏与书籍非常规的尺寸设置带来了颇具仪式感的阅读体验,也让人联想到王拓作品对历史叙事的泛萨满化探索。
The parallel and staggered narrative in Wang Tuo's film is the inspiration for the structural design of this book. The separation up and down through the whole book restores a seemingly contradictory narrative structure: Chinese and English words are parallel up and down, and the two still images that the text describes are tiled up and down oppositely on the page. The large-area silver ink printed color block that occasionally disrupts the typesetting rules simulates the narrative fracture and historical memory loss in Wang Tuo's works. The fixed rhythm of the work information of each film is scattered and distributed over three pages, and the unconventional size setting of books offers a quite ceremonial reading experience, which also conjures up the pan-shamanization exploration of historical narration in Wang Tuo's works.
题目、时长、创作年限置换于书籍翻阅结构,为每件作品拉开帷幕,双语的设置也得以延续。
The title, duration, and period of the film are synchronized with the reading structure of the book, presenting each work, and the bilingual arrangement is also continued.
