The Ventriloquists 14. Rybczynski: stretched vocabulary of narrativity, augmented attention to the material world 更多的圖形敘事解構，伸展了的敘事語彙，張開物理世界的奧秘。
More pictograms representing two experimental films by Zbigniew Rybczynski, New Book (1975) and Tango (1981), by 3 artists at the show Ventriloquists…Thinking Narratively (4-19 July 2020). A stretched vocabulary of narrativity. Multi-linearity, simultaneity, superimposition, convergence of trajectories, generative loops. 更多的圖形敘事解構，伸展了的敘事語彙。多向多線發展。共時性。重疊。弧度的結點、匯合。衍生式的循環。張開現實的奧秘。
The Ventriloquists 13. More generative literature trans-mediated: five episodes from Queneau’s “Exercises in Style” 衍生性文學圖像轉化：「烏利波」實驗文學搞手雷蒙卡奴的《風格的練習》
Like Calvino’s The Invisible Cities, Oulipo founder Raymond Queneau’s Exercices de style (Exercises in Style) is another example of generative literature transmediated as pictograms. Artist Madeleine Chan takes up 5 episodes of the work. After a generative principle, she produces 5 iterative views of the same event as pictograms, stretching Queneau’s textual play in written words.
The Ventriloquists 12. Intermedia dialogues with experimental literature: invisible cities 看不見的城市，看得見的後設城市藍圖
A pictogram is a form of knowledge; a pictogram that reconstructs another existing work is the stretching of the epistemological potential of a work. In the pictogram exercises presented at “The Ventriloquists … Thinking Narratively,” the reading and re-reading of Calvino’s The Invisible Cities combines the methods of music scoring, cartography, story-boarding and chronology-making, each with its own conceptual emphasis in presenting pictures of realities. Here, one pictogram offers glimpse of these concepts. 解構式的圖形是知識的具體表現；重塑已存在的作品的圖形是對現有作品的知識能量的擴展，同時也是對班雅明的「作者作為生產者」的想法的一種回應，關注個別的作如何站立於一個時代的技術生產當中。這裡以一個創作為例。
The Ventriloquists 11. Intermedia dialogues with experimental literature: World Like Mist by YU Hua 跨媒轉化，還覺世事如煙
Two artists read YU Hua’s novella World List Mists (1988) and translate it analytically and structurally into a pictogram form to augment textures of sentiments and narrative integrity, maximizing a fatal body of cybernetics through methods of scoring, cartography, chronology and storyboarding. 兩個圖像作品，兩個創作者對余華的《世事如煙》的轉化閱讀，呈現敘事性如何把哀愁、絕望化為結構，點對點的連線，網絡的展現，把個人的「命運」背後的人為操控層層展露。
The Ventriloquists 10. Meshes of the Afternoon: 3 pictograms of warped time & space 夢的秩序：午間的網陣，翹曲的時空
Three works interpret American avant-garde filmmaker Maya Deren’s Meshes of the Afternoon, each visualizing a unique aspect of the film. 三個圖像，結構細節形骸有別，都是對準美國前衛名作《午間的網陣》，剖開不同層面的內部物質真相。
