Afterparty

‘Episōdo 01: Afterparty’ is the afterparty of Yokohama Triennale 2020, featuring Phatstoki DJ'ing from Johannesburg with Fotan Laiki hyping from Hong Kong. This virtual afterparty happens in the wrong place at the wrong time as part of an episodic deliberation on discursive justice convened by Kabelo Malatsie, Michelle Wong, and Lantian Xie. After the party, Jerome Reyes drops a banner somewhere in Hong Kong.

Wear your best clothes, BYOB and get ready for a digital boogie. Old and new friends welcome.

DATE: 17 October, 2020
TIME: 23:00 (JP) | 22:00 (HK) | 16:00 (SA)

When we say 'party', we might speak of being party to; privy to, having access to, having insight to, being part of, being in association with.

When we say 'party', we might speak of gatherings of voices, ears, tongues, words, accents, conversations, disputations, counterarguments, and stories.

When we say 'party', we might speak of solidarity; friends, crews, groups, shared affinities, shared experiences, social imagination and inventiveness.

When we say 'party', we might speak of subterranean things; of evasions, hidings, sneakings, and friends' houses when their parents are away on holiday.

When we say 'party', we might speak of pizza parties, pyjama parties, sleepover parties, netflix parties, youtube parties, potluck parties, monopoly parties, dance parties.

When we say 'party', we might speak of meetings—places where people meet again, or meet for the first time, or meet for the last time, or meet to discuss a particular thing, or meet so as to not be alone, or meet to avoid boredom, or meet to plan something, or meet in that way that meetings become rehearsals for something else.

When we say 'party’, we might also speak of leaving parties, closing parties, farewell parties—parties as a celebration of times that have passed, and efforts that have been made, and things that have happened or have not yet happened.

「插曲 01：Afterparty」是 2020 年日本橫濱三年展的餘興派對，屆時 DJ Phatstoki 和火炭麗琪將配以 Jerome Reyes 的視覺藝術作品進行表演，為派對助興。在錯的時間、錯的地方遇上這場餘興派對，如同遇上一場對論述正義的插曲式審議。

我們說起「party」，可能是指作為某群體的一員——不僅是參與其中，或是和當中的人有所聯繫，更是對其內情有所掌握、能接觸到專屬於該群體的資訊、並能由此建立觀點。

我們說起「party」，亦可能是指各種口耳交傳的場合，乃至聲音、話語、口音、對話、爭論、駁斥和故事的聚散。

我們說起「party」，亦可能是指團結精神——當中所牽涉的友人、團隊、群組、內涵同等的親和力、共同回憶、社會想像和創造力。

我們說起「party」，亦可能是指地下場所——不論是避難所、藏匿處、潛行的地方，或是友人父母出門遠遊時的住所。

我們說起「party」，亦可能是指披薩派對、睡衣派對、過夜派對、Netflix 派對、YouTube 派對、百樂餐派對、大富翁派對，或舞會。

我們說起「party」，亦可能是指聚會——人們重遇、初見，或最後一次見面的地方。我們或為商討事項而前往聚會，或為排遣孤寂，或為打發時間，或為與相聚的人計劃甚麼，甚或以某種能改變聚會性質的方式相聚，令聚會變成另一件事的排演。

我們說起「party」，也可能是在形容告別派對、閉幕派對——以派對來頌讚遠逝的時間、過去的努力，以及已成為歷史、或是終將成為歷史的人與事。
