[行動物料]
全黑的空間，只亮紫藍Blacklight，一個白毛綫，二十一個洋蔥，一個裝洋蔥的黑袋子，(盡可能的高)的梯子，黑底紅暗花旗袍與高踭鞋，全黑緊身衣，黑蠟燭，火紙。
[行動時空筆記]
坐在長梯頂上，深呼吸，手拿著洋蔥袋，隨機散落洋蔥，手拿白線球走圈圈，說著粵語的擬音詞，幾圈後把旗袍與高趾鞋脫下，身穿全黑緊身衣，線纏在觀眾手中，在空間不規則地遊走，循序漸進，形成一個巨大的網，穿梭白網，來來回回。跪姿爬在地上擲爛所有洋蔥，邊擲邊大喊一些詞語，刺激的氣味溢出，漸漸佈滿整個空間，爬上梯子，點燃蠟燭，高舉黑蠟滴在右手臂上，最後燃亮火紙作句點。
[淺呼吸🫁成都野生自組行為群聚]
在現場認識了小海，短時間內籌辦了一次非常即興的聚，佩服高效率的行動力與號召力。戶外空地，老爺爺們悠閑聊天，周圍有很多植物，各人自帶各種物料及器材，有各種樂器、音響、烤盤、酒水食物等，氣氛非常之chill，很喜歡這種臨時野生又原始的聚，很有趣，在同一個時間空間各自做自己，這種(真正)共存的感覺很愉快。感謝相遇！

[Action Materials]
A completely black space, lit only by purple-blue blacklight; one white thread, twenty-one onions, one black bag for onions; (a ladder as tall as possible); a black cheongsam with dark red floral patterns and high heels; all-black tight-fitting clothes; black candles; fire paper.
[Action Space-Time Notes]
Sitting on the top of a tall ladder, taking a deep breath, holding the onion bag, randomly scattering onions; holding the white thread ball, walking in circles while speaking Cantonese phonetic words; after a few circles, remove the cheongsam and high heels, now wearing all-black tight clothes; the thread is wrapped around the audience’s hands; moving irregularly within the space, progressing step by step to form a huge net; weaving through the white net, coming back and forth. On knees, crawling on the ground, smashing all the onions while shouting some words; the stimulating smell spreads, gradually filling the whole space. Climb up the ladder, light the candle, raise the black wax dripping on the right arm, and finally light the fire paper as the finale.
[Shallow Breaths 🫁 Chengdu Wild Spontaneous Gathering]
Met Xiao Hai on site and shortly organized a very impromptu gathering; admire the high efficiency and mobilizing power. In an outdoor space beside a highway, a ground covered with small gravel; elderly men chatting leisurely; surrounded by many plants and wooden walkways; each person brought various materials and equipment, including musical instruments, speakers, grills, drinks, and food—the vibe was very chill. I really like this kind of spontaneous, wild, and raw gathering; it’s very interesting to be oneself at the same time and space, this feeling of (true) coexistence is pleasant. Thank you!
