匪夷所思

同事們對我所弄的芝士蛋糕讚不絕口,有些甚至說好過公司的咖啡室所供應的蛋糕,的確非常意外,可說是匪夷所思!
不過距離開舖賣餅的目標還很遠呢。而且我現在的目標也不是開Cake Shop了。或許有了一筆可觀的收入才考慮吧...

今晚和朋友去Agnes B. Gallery 看了「明和電機」(Maywadenki) 的展覽。作品的主題是魚,據介紹,明和電機社長創作的靈感來自一條問題:「我是誰?」於是他就從魚的角度去探討「我是誰」這個命題,繼而發明26個以魚為主題的「機器」。
我真的佩服社長的創意,但同時有感於「機器」背後隱隱透出的那份殘忍,尤其是那個電話響起時懸掛在魚籠頂上的針會掉下的裝置,隨時會插死籠中的魚,以魚類操作的打字機,或者用鐵鱗片敲擊皮膚的「紋身機」,造成魚鱗形的傷痕。朋友認為他們其實想諷刺社會的荒謬。

What a nice dilettantism indeed!! Apart from being a good pastime, it is also an oppportunity to bring happiness to the people around you, and for them to share the joy with you.

Do you know when the exhibition would end? The creativity shown by your description is unbelievable and unimaginable, with respect to the exhibition itself and the place for holding it. I am deeply jealous with your friends who have the honour to be your companion to visit such an interesting place!!
