城市生活節奏急速,我們每天穿梭於道路上,趕往一個又一個目的地。你有多久沒有在城市中徐徐漫步,細看一磚一瓦,傾聽被繁華淹去的話?
本地 art tech 旗手「天台製作」透過自行研發的手機應用程式,引領你在荃灣──香港首個衛星市鎮──展開一趟時空交織之旅。由聲音導航為你細說城市發展,以及不復存在的人和事;由影像導航,舞者將散落於意想不到的角落,於城中舞動。
願你從此打開感受城市的觸覺,逐步揭開看不見的城市脈絡。由商貿中心到街坊小店,重新探索前人花了數十年構築的路。

We Still Dance
Presented by: Leisure and Cultural Services Department
Produced by: Rooftop Productions
Platform: Mobile App
Synopsis: City life is hectic. Every day, we rush from point A to point B without even pausing to look up. When did you last enjoy a slow walk, relishing every step and looking at every brick, noticing what lies beneath the city’s glitzy exterior?
Local art tech pioneers, Rooftop Productions, take you on a journey through Tsuen Wan with their app specifically devised for the district – Hong Kong’s first satellite town – traversing both time and space. Audio guides dig into fascinating details about urban development, retelling stories of the past. Dancers appear in the app as virtual guides, leading you to unexpected corners.
Discover a renewed relationship with the city as we uncover the hidden networks beneath the familiar surface, revealing the changing face of the neighbourhood through the decades.
