Peking University Special Lecture This time, we are honored to invite Yang Naixuan, the artistic director of Little Things Production, to the school to share with the students his own life experience, the different visual environments he saw when he went abroad, and the recording of every scene in the photos when he was stationed in Paris. The story. Naixuan first asked the students in the audience: "What do you think the cost of being yourself is?" When someone answered: "Being yourself means doing what you like without any worries." Looking back now, I found: It is actually very difficult. . As the keynote speaker, Naixuan puts her status very low, explaining that she is not important. The important thing is "why I am who I am now." The students followed the time machine in the text and recalled with Naixuan: At that time, in order to dream of meeting their favorite actor Keanu Reeves, they began to study English seriously; because they taught the performing arts subjects of several schools, they began to learn hip-hop dance. In order to be closer to what students are really curious about and want to learn; the part-time job I did at the beginning was to balance the cost of performing. In fact, these topics are not far away from us, study, teach and work. When things start with different intentions, their final appearance will be different, and this will also create different types of us. Naixuan started to play one photo after another that she had recorded during her residency in Paris. Because she had studied art since she was a child, she had a particularly keen eye for color, clothing, and architecture. She saw a special episode of People with Attitude and saw a little boy riding the subway. With a grimace, Naixuan said that even though the schedule was so busy that day, the child made her day; when she saw a group of grandparents looking at the paintings in the art gallery, we talked about the age group for appreciating art. Many activities are always going on It can only be formed under established cognition, but is this really the case? It’s worth continuing to think about; seeing the ratio of Dior advertising pages compared to normal people, how likely is the crossover between art and fashion. Amid the differences in national culture, how can the Taiwan team find more possibilities to create cross-border art in Taiwan, expand the age group of art appreciation in Taiwan, and how can this small island find "the ability to go out" under the execution of a team? ” way. The topics discussed in this symposium are art and life, but the more important things, I think, are life issues in myself, such as: attitude towards things, opening up the sensitivity of perception, and maintaining a humble attitude towards learning. We in the school system need to find new fun every day in our daily lives, not to mention just a new hairstyle, a different style of clothes, and a new lip color slogan on our lips, because A person's true beauty is not an external expression, it is the confidence that truly radiates from the inside out. This is why we often envy the appearance of foreign dancers. Perhaps the difference is our "recognition". There are some things you can't do at your age, and there are some things that only you can do now. When an idea comes up, there are only two results in the end: "do" or "don't do". In this generation, we are always waiting for a successful model, but what is the definition of success? What do we imagine an artist to look like? After going around the world, the farther you go, the more you can find where your home is? The freedom that Teacher Naixuan gave us from the beginning actually allowed us to start learning—to be ourselves. In the end, no matter how the world changes, don’t forget to be what you like, because that is the most important but easily forgotten thing. Oh, by the way, when others praise you, remember to say thank you. Thank you, Teacher Naixuan:) These seeds seem to be sprinkled in our hearts. One day, we will find that it is growing little by little.
