BLEED (Biennial Live Event in the Everyday Digital) is a six year project exploring how the online makes us feel. Taking place between the live and digital, this is your space to visit, watch, listen and read your way through the strangeness of our IRL and URL existence.

In 2022 BLEED considered the potential and problems of borders, exploring the sites of intersection between and within humans, technology, nationhood, and our emotional and digital geographies. BLEED took place across three cities, online and in person, from 29 August – 25 September 2022. You can continue to explore the digital works and offerings online here.

A netted mind-map made with nodes and lines, marking the records of contact between Taiwan and its surroundings since the 17th century, from natural resource extraction under colonial policies to propaganda films under militarism, the lines between the nodes connect the relationship between different worlds. 一張透過線與節點連接成網的心智圖表,上面的節點標記著著自17世紀以來台灣島嶼與周邊的接觸紀錄,從殖民政策下的自然資源開採到軍國主義下的宣傳電影,節點之間的線,連接著不同世界之間的關聯。
