In No. 100, Fang-Liau : An Experiment of Digital Chorography

數位地方志—《枋寮100番地誌》是創作者對於家與土地的追尋與紀錄。透過新媒體iPad為敘事平台，運用新媒體敘事的互動性、行動與多媒體特色，將文學的創作結合空間系統，賦予地方志閱讀立體的空間感知。 本創作蒐集了中和枋寮在地歷史、人物與故事，並以地方的片段影像、聲音勾勒枋寮的輪廓與地方感。在敘事上，轉化原來以時間作為陳述順序的地方志結構，提出「空間」概念作為敘事主題。內容安置在地圖的經緯度間，由讀者透過街道的介面設計，展開地方內容的探索與漫遊。作品進一步結合定位與主動推播，創造在地閱讀的互動情境，內容對應著讀者所佇立的當下，空間的今昔對比形成「此在」、「此曾在」的跨時經驗。 數位地方志的互動閱讀體驗，賦予地方閱讀空間與探索的趣味，使地方志文本不再只是單向、平面的陳述。對於中和在地人而言，閱讀的過程是一場地方記憶的召喚；對於外地讀者，作品賦予漫遊者一種穿梭時空的地方體驗，提供不同觀看地方的角度與視野，文本意義皆內涵著觀者獨特的地方經驗、感受與記憶。"No. 100, Fang-Liau" is a chorography that displays the history of streets in Fang-Liau, Zhong-he District (中和枋寮) through an application on iPad/iPad mini. Using the iPad device as a communication platform, the project was carried out by the interactive design components, mobility, and features of “digital narrative,” in contrast to the traditional context of history. Contents of digital chorography are built base on “space” rather than the timeline structure; the design then brings user an interactive experience in reading: This project gathered local history, culture and stories of Fang-Liau; with the input of local images, video clips, audio track, and old photos of the residence, the literature is combined with space, creating a 3D perception of reading/experiencing the chorography. To enhance the sense of space, the stories are stored in a location database for user to retrieve. The “street view” interface of UI/UX design provides user the function of exploring in the context and finding stories they may be interested in, as if they’re wondering in physical space. In addition, the function of Global Positional System (GPS) and Location-based Service allows the system to notify user where they are, telling them historical stories of the place and showing them what the surrounding was like in the past. Integrating the function of visual and sound, users are immersed in the atmosphere of “space” and can further get a glance of what daily lives were like in the past. For local residents, the application can actually recalled their emotions and memories according to their own life experiences; for visitors or travelers, on the other hand, the application provides an innovation way of accessing Fang-Liau
