「中國觀察」（China-watching）一詞在中華人民共和國的研究領域中具有獨特的意涵。與其他通常被主動「研究」的地區不同，中國往往只能被動地被「觀察」，且多半是從海外進行。隨著中國的數位連結程度達到前所未有的高度，這種遠距視角雖然帶來獨特的洞見，卻也使許多面向在遙望中被遺漏。
在本次講座中，媒體藝術團體全景 Total View 將分享其創作背景，介紹目前於超級浪展出作品的脈絡，並反思媒體藝術在華語圈語境中的更多可能。隨後將與王哲謙及 Vivien Chang 對談，探討藝術、新聞與學術研究在何處交會、不同的方法與視角如何相互影響，並以展覽主題「感知中國化」為切入點，檢視這個詞彙的起源、深層意涵與當前的具體表現。

The term "China-watching" is uniquely associated with the study of the People's Republic of China. Unlike other regions, which are typically actively "studied", China remains only passively watched, mostly from abroad. As the country is more digitally connected than it has ever been, this remote view offers unique insights while other aspects are left out when observed from a distance.
In their artist talk, the media art group Total View will share the background of their practice, offer context on the projects currently exhibited at Hyper Wave, and reflect on the broader possibilities of media art in sinospheric settings. In dialogue with Felix Brender and Vivien Chang, they will explore where art, journalism and research intersect, and how these different approaches and perspectives influence each other. Taking the exhibition theme "Sensing Sinicization" as a point of reference, they will also examine the origins and broader implications of this term as well as its current manifestations.
Felix Brender is Hou Family Fellow in Taiwan Studies at Harvard's Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies. His work focuses on international security, China in the Global South, and Taiwan's identity, memory and justice practices. He also contributes regularly to public and policy debates on China's global role.
Vivien Chang is a freelance journalist based in Germany. Her reporting focuses on China and Taiwan, particularly Chinese influence operations, transnational repression and policies toward minorities. Other research interests include political extremism and online radicalization. Her articles have been published in DIE ZEIT, Stern and taz, among others.
The media art and research group Total View was founded in 2024 to create an interdisciplinary platform between artists, researchers and journalists in order to develop new forms of investigative practice. Their award-winning art project Sensing Sinicization, which systematically documents the state of China's assimilation policies, has been exhibited internationally.
