苗.春祭跟其他音樂季有什麼不同?


苗.春祭跟其他音樂季有什麼不同?

What is different about Sprouts Art Festival?

很多人在問:苗.春祭究竟是怎樣的活動?
已經有那麼多的音樂季活動,為什麼還要辦一個?
而且明明那麼窮、什麼都得克難、還非要辦不可?
苗.春祭究竟是怎樣的活動?


Many people ask: what exactly is the Sprouts Art Festival?
With all the music festivals we have already, why do we need another one?
With such a low budget, and having to scrape at every possibility, why bother?
What is Sprouts Art Festival?

跟紙寮坑藝術農工場揭櫫的深刻意旨一樣,
我們要重新定義自我的存在,我們關注文化的傳承和交融,
不設限兼容並蓄的變動過程才是「我們」
──臺灣的主體價值所在。

Just as what the Paper Hut Stream Artlabors' Farm has shown us,
We must redefine our own existence, and nurture the mingling and passing on of our cultures.
An ever-changing process of embracing all, without boundaries, that is us
—that is the heart of the Taiwanese value.

所以苗.春祭不同於其他所有以放鬆、狂歡,
只能短暫釋放資本結構異化的工作框架角色的逆反作用,
導致上癮般的療癒過程而形成的消費模式,
並且劑量越用越大,「狂野」的程度越來越講究「規模」,
終究還是落入市場經濟的迴圈中;

So, Sprouts Art Festival is unlike other relaxing, reveling festivals,
which merely act as a counter-process to temporarily relieve the alienation of capitalist society.
Those kinds of festivals promote consumerism for an almost addictive therapy,
with need for a higher dosage each time, and more and more attention given to the size of the “wildness”,
ultimately still falling back into the loop of market economics.

我們是一群認真重頭建構生活實踐可能的平凡人,
我們不敢輕忽人類文明的積累,不想盲目追求無目的的狂歡暴烈,
我們深切明白,理性與感性的平衡才能維繫我們的平安和喜悅,
但這並不意味著苗.春祭將排擠創造實驗的可能性,
反而因為這個沉穩的基盤,
我們可以承受真正逼近生命內在的慾望底層的各種探索努力,
而不致流於虛浮的形式主義。

We are a group of average people dedicated to reconstructing the possibility of practical life,
we deeply value what the history of human civilization has left for us,
and we do not blindly seek revelry and chaos.
We know, in the depths of our hearts, that only through the balance between sense and sensibility, can we maintain our peace and happiness,
but this does not mean that Sprouts Art Festival is against experimentation,
quite the opposite, because we have this solid base,
we can withstand any efforts to approach the most underlying desires of life itself,
without the risk of becoming a mere formality.

「我們」當中始終會有清明的意識,
當某個你恣意飛騰旋轉,
險將掉落生命之輪的邊緣時,
可以像麥田捕手一樣接住你、時刻守望著你 !  
你儘可以竭盡你的氣力窮碧落、下黃泉......

Within us there is always a consciousness, clear as day,
that when you are flying, twirling with ease,
to the point of nearly falling off the edge of the wheel of life,
that we will catch you, like the Catcher in the Rye, looking over you at all times.
You can, with all your might, attempt to see what all heaven and hell have to offer…

每個「你」都將是這個祭禮的主體,
就像我們天堂般的島嶼:臺灣,也該是世界的主體,
眾人聚合的所有效益,也將任由所有參與的人領受,
七天的共同生活,將是全生命的洗禮和體驗,
支持每一個人領略平凡生活原本的美好,重現生命本來的尊貴!

Every you is an autonomous subject in this ceremony, just as our heavenly island: Taiwan, should be an autonomous subject in this world.
All benefits that the people have gathered, will be given back to all those who were among the gatherers.
Seven days of communal living, will be an experience that recreates your life,
we support everyone on their journey seeking the gifts of everyday life, to present again life’s original nobility.

What is different about Sprouts Art Festival?

我們更有別於同樣標舉普世價值,瞭解全球在地化(Glocal)意涵,
卻只能空泛行銷呼喊,游牧閃現的不明團體組織,
始終只有短暫的消費交換關係;

We are different from those unidentified organizations, who hold high the universal values, who understand the meaning of Glocalization,
But who can only shout their slogans for empty marketability, who come and go at will,
Who, in the end, have only a short monetary relationship with you.

苗.春祭所有活動產生的邊際效益,
不但不會投入另一個盲目消費的迴圈,
而是積極注入長期建設與組織建構當中。

All marginal benefits of Sprouts Art Festival will not be reentering the loop of blind consumerism, but will instead be actively returned to efforts of long term construction and community building.

我們始終在這裡,
我們會用同樣嚴謹的態度建立完整帳目和紀錄,
對每一個參與者開放永久監督的權力。

We will always be here, we will be no less rigorous with our accounting and records,
And we forever give any participants the right to oversight.

當然我們也歡迎你直接加入我們,
參與推展的每一個環節!

And of course, we welcome you to join us directly, and become the momentum that takes us forward through every process.
