作為空間實踐的另類媒體：臺灣在地連儂牆之考察

Alternative Media as Spatial Practice: An Investigation of the Lennon Walls in Taiwan

作為香港「反修例」運動中的重要抗爭景觀，世界各地的民眾在公共空間牆壁上粘貼便箋、海報和裝飾物而形成的連儂牆見證了「反修例」運動的發展，傳播了對香港抗爭者的情感支持。從曼谷、河內、東京、首爾、多倫多、墨爾本、倫敦到紐約，人們將其城市的牆壁重塑為「撐香港」的場所。與此同時，連儂牆的現場也出現了由於抗爭運動的反對者試圖撕毀和破壞牆壁上的內容而引發的衝突。 在臺灣，不同城市的人們發起在地連儂牆作為對「反修例」運動的支援，用文字和圖片表達對極權的抗拒，乃至將其用作2020年總統大選期間政治動員的媒介。本研究實地考察了臺北、新竹、臺中三個城市的九個連儂牆，希望進行如下三個面向的討論：作為另類媒體的連儂牆具有怎樣的特徵？公共空間的牆壁如何被利用和改造為政治場域？不同的社會力量在哪些方面形塑了連儂牆？

Developed out of the Anti-Extradition Law Amendment Bill Movement to disseminate a supportive sentiment to Hong Kong’s protest movement, the Lennon Walls have flourished in many regions of the world. Meanwhile, conflicts appear as those who oppose the movement attempt to vandalize the walls. As the Lennon Walls developed vigorously in different cities of Taiwan, the article hopes to demonstrate in what ways are the Lennon Walls deployed politically in specific contexts. It starts with the historical investigation and literature review of the Lennon Wall to frame it as a kind of alternative media to examine the social construction of space through the Lennon Walls. Based on the author’s fieldwork and related news reports, the article points out different characteristics of the Lennon Walls and how various social actors participated in the molding of these walls.
