Empty Dream，那色彩斑斕的夜晚…

"The panther paints the world pink then disappears into pinkness." (Pet, 2005 3)

台灣的街頭總是色彩斑斕的。

典型的台灣街頭景象總是不難在閃爍的招牌、飛舞的霓虹燈和誇張的廣告的裝飾。

在某些方面來說這些，這些色彩或許反映了台灣多元文化中複雜、瘋狂且根莖錯亂的政治、社會和歷史現象。

在後現代社會中，我們的視覺已經被這些舞動的影像所迷惑。

電視、電影、標語、廣告中的片段徹底了粉碎了現實中的安靜。  

然而，色彩在這遍混亂中提供了我們一個騎乘的機器，供我們在這些異質的視覺元素中穿梭。

每次走在台北街頭，我總是沉浸在星光大道的幻想當中，閃爍的霓虹都彷彿為我在街頭鋪上了華麗的紅毯。

奢華的燈光和霓虹的顏色暗示著我巨星的身分，一種脫離現實的想像。

在華麗的夜生活中，昏暗的KTV的包廂裡，微醺的我和性感的色彩，相互輝映著空虛的夢境。

There is always resplendnet with the variegated colouration of night life.

The colourful imagery might only paint Taiwan's multicultural, rhizomatic, ruptured and chaotic geographical information in a scientific chromatographer order. 

Being confused by the names, slogans, and colours in the adverts, movies and television programs is typical post modern life today. 

The colour provides an empty machine here, to accompany us to ride between these heterogeneous elements.  

Any typical entertainment business in Taiwan has colourful neon, shining banners, spinning light balls and running subtitles,

which are all like the experience and memory that we have of typical Taiwanese night scenes. 

Every time I pass along the shining sidewalk in Taipei city, I am left with the feeling that I have just walked along the red carpet reserved for Hollywood Stars, and I am ready for the performance. 

The signs of luxurious decoration and neon colour seem to express to consumers a hint of a better or even more enjoyable idea. 

This exemplifies the heterotopias in such a hedonistic city, seemingly set apart from the real world. 

In KTV's chamber, immersed in the dazzling neon light, the customers clothes, their costume, take on sexy colours and we are intoxicated by the appearance of our colourful friends.
