事在人求 ( Michel Vinaver, 1970-1971)

此劇本共有30個片段，由四個人從頭到尾不間斷的對話而成立--- 一位是面試主管，其他三位則同屬一個家庭（父、母、女）。內容充斥著中年人找工作面試、家庭生活與少女墮胎等議題的零星對談。

黑人與狗的爭鬥 (戈爾德思 Koltès, 1979)

在我讀的中文譯本裡頭，首先讓人感興趣的是它的場景與人物的安排。場景是：

Die Arabische Nacht 阿拉伯之夜 (Roland Schimmelpfennig, 1998)

This is a rather interesting poster of the performance---  a dripping apartment. People and the events took in place are perhaps in the liquid state--- flowing between floors and shifting shapes accordingly.

Over Nothing At All (Nathalie Sarraute)

Over Nothing at All is a play Sarraute wrote in the 80s.

It's about 2 characters (M1 and M2--- not exactly from the Star Trek) having a conversation about something they can't really point their index fingers on.

 R2-D2 and C-3PO

In most cases people probably would refer such trivial things as "nothing"--- or as M2 put it: words we didn't "have". But in close relationships, this "nothing" can be deadly. Like you would never know what can put her/him off.

Hiroshima Mon Amour (1959) /film script by Duras/

Marguerite Duras wrote the film script: Hiroshima Mon Amour in 1959.

Vannevar Bush has been mostly associated with his writing: As We May Think, published in Atlantic Monthly in 1945. This writing is influential as it brought out the early concept of personal computers and hypertext links.

Book review: Catching the Big Fish. Meditation, Consciousness and Creativity

It's a small shiny green book with hard cardboard covers.

黑麋鹿如是說 Black Elk Speaks

     自文明記事開始，不乏以爭地盤、奪金礦石油、種族紛爭等等為由掀起戰事，雖勝者為王，可大肆歌頌戰績偉業，但其中的血腥、殘暴、無謂的犧牲，除了封印在當事者的記憶裡，似乎只能在屍首遍野的荒涼中隨風散去。

Susan Sontag [麥田出版 王德威主編]

這本書主要包涵了 Sontag 的 interview，conducted by 幾位深具大中國意識的所謂"知識份子"，他們心中的肩膀扛著"犬儒"的社會大任，似乎在主流壓迫下必須擠點知識的奶水貢獻國家，相較於他們的過度簡化與標籤化，Sontag可顯得氣度寬宏與謙卑多了。
