Ideas on 雲門's 行草三部曲 & 董陽孜x書法紀錄片

Just like to share with you some ideas I got from 雲門's 行草三部曲 that i went to see two days ago..

This whole notion of the "cursive" chinese calligraphyical art to me, seems so much like the characteristics of our culture that is prevailing in our daily lives: from how we talk or interact, how we move, to our architecture, our urban layout, and so on so forth.

It is composed of flexibility (or even irregularity), 留白, humbleness, 應對進退的拿捏, .....and so many things specific to our culture.

So it occured to me, when I thought about the possibilitiy of telling a story about chinese calligraphy/characters:
How do we capture these essential elements shared by the dancing, the writings, and all these other activities or objects in our culture? Or are we going to be able to illustrate the way the audience's emtional feedback resonates with (or be analogous to) the calmness or joy they get when writing calligraphy? These are the questions I would think important to think about when we try to put together things into a story.

To be more specific, when we interview people that are not themselves professional calligraphers while interacting with calligraphers greatly, what kind of conversation would we wanna have with them? How are we going to set up the contextual environment, such that the important notions that we want to touch upon under this whole chinese-culture umbrella, can be clearly identified and examplified? To answer these questions, we may also want to clarify our potential perspectives towards this topic, in order to know what we want (or don't want) to explore.
