自二十世紀后期物質型經濟轉化成知識型經濟,產品由“有形”漸趨“無形”,例如信息、知識、知識產權等便是“無形”產品。“無形”產品不僅沒有遵從傳統“有形”產品固有的內在物質性,並且已經完全融入到每天的生活當中,讓你很難意識到它是一件產品。例如,過山車就是常見的“無形”產品。它既具有娛樂性也有經濟價值,我們都願意為之付錢。在迪士尼游玩一天讓這個“無形”產品變成各式各樣的現實。

類似的情形以不同的方式和強度存在於我們生活當中——在工作中,在我們經常光顧的快餐店裡,在購物商場,在周末的足球比賽,在世界一流的博物館,在家庭式度假勝地,甚至是在醫療服務中。所有的這些產品都基於一個簡單而重要的理念:即為一個特定的群體、消費者/客戶或普羅大眾提供一種“特別的體驗”。

“體驗”逐漸成為一種產品給我們帶來的啟示是,市場和商家都已經深刻認識到消費者對商品所帶來的體驗的喜好遠遠大於其傳統屬性,如價格和質量。 在與市場相對的高雅文化領域,許多美學觀念,如由利帕德和錢德勒在1968年提出的“藝術去物質化”也指出了一種發展方向,即讓觀眾通過各種抽象的體驗參與其中比物品制作的工藝和技巧更重要。

這些例子不禁讓我們思考以體驗為主導的文化能給藝術、工藝和設計等領域的傳統概念帶來怎樣的新思維? 一種可能是,主張“聚合體驗”,讓不同的行業領域匯聚一起形成一種綜合體驗。像建筑、劇場或是舞蹈這些領域,都是從時間上發展而成的多感官體驗。它們可以為這些活動提供概念上的藍圖。然而“體驗設計”作為獨立學科仍需要探索與其他學科及專業領域的關系並明晰自身定位。

內森·謝卓夫在《體驗設計1》開篇中寫道:“體驗設計是一個新興領域,它的定義還在不斷變化之中” (謝卓夫,2011)。盡管在1999年第一版中已經開始論述“體驗設計”,但在2011年版《體驗經濟》的序言裡,約瑟夫·派恩二世與詹姆斯·吉爾摩也發出類似的感慨:“這本書自1999年已被翻譯成超過15種語言,全球各地有超過30萬人購買閱讀此書。但是這本書還未深刻影響到足夠多的商界領袖和政策制定者,讓這個新興的但卻是社會迫切需要的經濟秩序蓬勃發展起來。”

視覺藝術碩士課程(體驗設計)不畏挑戰,糅合獨特的多元化創作實踐與跨學科研究,超越藝術和設計的傳統邊界,探索新技術發展、心理學知識系統、經濟理論和日常生活的聯系,使設計體驗的理論與實踐形成一個更協調統一的有機框架。因此,視覺藝術院的體驗設計碩士課程走在專業領域及學術領域的前沿,致力於打造一個激動人心且意義深遠的新興學科。

Wen Yau: Occupy Movement expands imagination, experience of city space

25th November 2014 by Peter

Dubbed ‘the city of protest’, Hong Kong has seen various demonstrations that effectively engaged a growing number of people and redefine their experiences of using public spaces.

According to Wen Yau from the Academy of Visual Arts, HKBU, civic-led campaigns have negotiated the desired ‘openness and transparency’ as claimed by the government and re-interpreted the site-as-an-open-platform for civil engagement in Hong Kong.

Artist, architect re-animate history with Open Cinema

20th November 2014 by Peter

You might have gone to an outdoor cinema, but what about ‘getting immersed’ inside a structure from waist up and having your feet grounded in open space while watching movies?

That was the temporary structure (pictured) that artist Marysia Lewandowska and architect Colin Fournier created for the Portuguese town of Guimaraes—the European Cultural Capital 2012.
