感知、時間與連結，如何形塑看待世界的方式？《HCS Journal》年刊 01: Highlight 即將發行

算一算，Hey!Cheese 走入不同建築與設計現場，以鏡頭記錄作品被完成的一刻已有十多年。長時間的實地經驗，讓我們看見許多鏡頭未收錄，但值得述說的事。當關注逐漸延伸至畫面之外，針對隨之而來的思考與追問，我們意識到它們需要自己的載體，HCS 也由此成形，從 Hey!Cheese 滋長為一個獨立設計媒體。

在 HCS，我們希望觀看不止於作品最終呈現的樣貌，也探尋創作者與環境、文化和所處時代之間的關係。《HCS Journal》是 HCS 首次發行的紙本刊物。我們邀請不同領域的創作者以各自的經驗加入對話，並把過去累積的提問與反思帶進其中，讓原本分散於各個時間、地域與創作脈絡中的哲思，在這本刊物裡相互參照。

Hey!Cheese has spent over a decade walking into architecture and design sites of every kind, documenting through the lens the moment a work comes into being. That sustained, firsthand experience revealed much that the camera never captured but that deserved to be told. As our attention gradually extended beyond the frame, the thinking and questioning that followed made us realize these needed a vehicle of their own. HCS took shape from there, growing out of Hey!Cheese into an independent design media platform.
At HCS, we want looking to go further than a finished work. We want to explore the relationships between creators and their environments, cultures, and the times they inhabit. HCS Journal is the first print publication from HCS. We invited creators from different disciplines to join the conversation from their own experience, and brought into these pages the questions and reflections we have accumulated across years of working on different sites, allowing thinking that was once scattered across separate moments, geographies, and creative contexts to come into dialogue within a single volume.

關於 Highlight

第一期《HCS Journal》，我們以一個再熟悉不過的字「Highlight」作為主題。起初構思時，腦中最先想到的其實是球賽結束後的精華片段。幾個小時的比賽被濃縮成幾分鐘，卻足以讓人彷彿重臨現場，牽動遠比短暫幾秒更多的感受與記憶。

記得 2024 年世界棒球 12 強，台灣對上日本那場冠軍戰，當裁判比出最後一個出局的手勢，所有隊友衝向彼此、緊緊抱在一起。守在電視機前的我，邊起雞皮疙瘩、邊不敢置信我們真的贏了。儘管比賽終了，但意猶未盡的情緒還停不下來。很快地又點開賽事精華，從短短的 Highlight 裡重溫整場關鍵攻防。緊張刺激、放聲吶喊的時刻，又再次回到眼前。

不只一場比賽，一次旅行結束、一場展覽散場，甚至只是日常裡再普通不過的一天，我們都不斷重複類似的事。在漫長的經歷裡留住幾個瞬間；讀本書，在文句間畫下一段話；或是在一天經過的無數畫面中，記住某個讓自己會心一笑的一幕。

這麼一想，Highlight 這個字變得更有意思。它既是事後剪輯出的精彩片段，也是我們拿起筆，在一句話底下標示重點的動作。一個指向被留下來的結果，一個則關乎主動選擇的當下。而發生在這兩者之間的種種，就是我們這次主題想向下挖掘的事情。

On Highlight
For this inaugural issue of HCS Journal, we chose one of the most familiar words we could think of as our theme: "Highlight." When we first started working through the concept, the image that came to mind was actually the recap reel after a match. Hours of play compressed into a few minutes, yet enough to place you right back in the stadium, stirring feelings and memories that far outlast those brief seconds.
I think of the 2024 Premier 12, the championship game between Taiwan and Japan. The moment the umpire signaled the final out, every teammate rushed toward one another, holding on tight. Watching from my seat in front of the television, I stood there covered in goosebumps, unable to believe we had actually won. The game was over, but the emotion refused to settle. Before long I was pulling up the highlight reel, reliving every decisive play in just a few minutes. The tension, the shouting, all of it right there in front of me again.
It goes well beyond a single game. A trip ends, an exhibition closes, an entirely unremarkable day draws to a close, and still we find ourselves doing something similar. We hold on to a handful of instants from a long stretch of experience. We draw a line under a passage in a book. Out of the countless images that cross our field of vision in a single day, we remember the one that made us smile.
Seen this way, the word takes on another dimension. "Highlight" points to the brilliant clips edited after the fact, and it describes the act of picking up a pen to mark what matters beneath a sentence. One refers to what was kept. The other belongs to the present tense of choosing. Everything that unfolds between the two is what this issue sets out to explore.

三個主題章節，勾勒閱讀的路徑

不同現場的創作經歷，接連折射出一些交互疊加的線索。我們循著 Sense（感知）、Time（時間）與 Connection（連結）三個維度，和不同領域的創作者坐下談話：議題從身體如何接收周遭、時間用什麼樣貌參與創作，到不同地域、專業與生命軌跡怎麼彼此串接，一步步趨向創作者歷經試錯、推翻與取捨後，真正重要的部分。

Three thematic chapters, tracing a path through reading
Working across different creative settings has gradually surfaced a set of overlapping threads. Following three through-lines, Sense, Time, and Connection, we sat down with creators from a range of disciplines. We talked about how the body receives its surroundings, the shapes time takes when it enters the creative process, and the ways different geographies, expertise, and life trajectories come to be linked. Step by step, the conversations moved toward what truly remains after all the trial, error, reversal, and compromise.

由李慧倫設計師操刀的刊物及封面設計，便將內部的敘事理念延續到書的外層。

包覆在內封面之上的透明 PVC 書衣膜片，被視為 HCS 觀看世界的一層濾鏡。如極光般流動的色彩隨著光線與角度變化，原本清晰的文字時而浮現，時而隱入其中；拿掉膜片，又回到另一種清楚直接的樣貌。同一本書因此沒有唯一固定的面孔，外在條件的些微改變，也可能讓原本不顯眼的部分，成為此刻最先被注意到的地方。

這呼應了 Highlight 在這一期裡想談的事：我們所注意到的內容，總與所處的視角、過往經驗，以及當下的感受互相牽動。

Huilun Lee's design for both the publication and its cover extends the editorial thinking all the way to the object's surface. A transparent PVC dust jacket sits over the inner cover, functioning as a kind of filter, the lens through which HCS looks at the world. Its colours, aurora-like, move with light and angle. The printed title surfaces, then falls back into the gradient. Remove the jacket entirely, and the book becomes something else: clean, direct, immediate. There is no fixed version of the cover. A slight shift in light or position can turn what was invisible a moment ago into the first thing you see.
That is, in a sense, the premise of this first issue of Highlight: what catches our attention is never separate from where we stand, what we carry with us, and how we feel in the moment.

有些人非常清楚自己相信什麼，也有人在回答中途修正剛才說過的話。有些經驗已沉澱多年，有些感受則直到對談當下，才第一次找到表述的方式。

我們十分珍惜這些思維正在成形的時刻。

一個人願意打開自我，讓我們聆聽他的經驗，即便回答未必簡短俐落，也不總能被濃縮成漂亮的金句，卻讓我們有機會貼近他的內在地景。對我們而言，那是一份極大的信任。而這本書，便是承接這些信任後集結而成的紀錄。

Some people were remarkably clear about what they believe. Others paused mid-answer to revise something they had just said. Certain experiences had been settling for years. Other feelings found language for the first time only in the moment of conversation.
We treasure those instances when a thought is still taking shape.
When someone is willing to open up and let us listen, even if the answers are not always concise, even if they resist being compressed into elegant one-liners, we are given the chance to draw close to their interior landscape. For us, that is a profound act of trust. This book is the record that came from receiving it.

一本刊物，是無數次 Highlight 過後的結果

時代不斷向前，工具、技術與我們所處的環境都會改變，但一個人怎麼看待眼前的事物、如何建構判斷，以及支撐那些選擇的態度與觀點，並不會隨著時空更迭就失去意義。也因此，要如何讓這些言談與想法離開現場後，依然保有自己的皺摺與重量，是編輯過程反覆拿捏的重點。

我們希望觸及更接近本質的部分，讓文字帶著它發生於此刻的痕跡，卻不只在此刻成立。也許多年後重新翻開，眼前的世界已經不同，然而其中某些觀點，仍有與另一個時代對話的可能。

A publication is the outcome of countless rounds of highlighting
The era keeps moving forward. Tools, technologies, and the world around us will change. But the way a person regards what is in front of them, how they arrive at a judgment, the attitudes and perspectives that underpin their choices: these do not lose their meaning simply because the context shifts. For that reason, how to let these words and ideas keep their own texture and weight once they have left the room where they were spoken was a question the editorial process returned to again and again.

取捨與選擇無可避免，但畫下重點，未必一定要替一件事下結論。《HCS Journal》:Highlight 想讓閱讀不只停在單方面的接收，也拓展出自行建構想法與思辨空間。

期待你在字裡行間，畫下屬於自己的重點。

The aim was to reach toward something closer to the essential, letting the writing carry the traces of the moment it was made without being valid only in that moment.
Perhaps years from now, when the world in front of you looks entirely different, some of the thinking here will still hold up its end of a conversation with another time.
Selection and compromise are unavoidable, but highlighting something does not have to mean concluding. Reading, at its best, goes beyond one-sided reception. It opens a space where your own thinking can form.
Somewhere between these lines, we hope you will find a highlight of your own.
