So yeah, I'm a newspaper cartoonist --
0
1000
2000
对，我是一位报纸漫画家——
00:18
political cartoonist.
1
3000
2000
政治漫画家
00:20
I don't know if you've heard about it -- newspapers?
2
5000
3000
我不知道你们是否听说过——报纸？
00:23
It's a sort of paper-based reader.
3
8000
3000
它是一种以纸为媒介的读物
00:26
(Laughter)
4
11000
3000
（笑声）
00:29
It's lighter than an iPad,
5
14000
2000
它比iPod轻巧
00:31
it's a bit cheaper.
6
16000
3000
便宜一点
00:34
You know what they say?
7
19000
2000
你知道人们怎么说吗？
00:36
They say the print media is dying --
8
21000
3000
他们说印刷媒体正在消亡
00:39
who says that? Well, the media.
9
24000
3000
谁说的？嗯，媒体自己说的
00:42
But this is no news, right?
10
27000
3000
但这不是什么新闻了，是吗？
00:45
You've read about it already.
11
30000
3000
你们已经早有所闻了
00:48
(Laughter)
12
33000
3000
（笑声）
00:53
Ladies and gentlemen,
13
38000
2000
女士们，先生们
00:55
the world has gotten smaller.
14
40000
2000
世界已变得越来越小
00:57
I know it's a cliche, but look,
15
42000
3000
我知道这是陈词滥调，但瞧！
01:00
look how small,
16
45000
3000
瞧它有多小
01:03
how tiny it has gotten.
17
48000
2000
有多微不足道
01:05
And you know the reason why, of course.
18
50000
2000
当然，你们知道原因何在
01:07
This is because of technology -- yeah.
19
52000
3000
罪魁祸首是科学技术，是的
01:10
(Laughter)
20
55000
2000
（笑声）
01:13
Any computer designers in the room?
21
58000
2000
在这个房间里有电脑设计师吗？
01:17
Yeah well,
22
62000
2000
好吧
01:19
you guys are making my life miserable
23
64000
3000
你们这些家伙使我的生活变得不幸
01:22
because track pads used to be round,
24
67000
2000
因为触控板一直都是圆的
01:24
a nice round shape.
25
69000
2000
完美的圆形
01:26
That makes a good cartoon.
26
71000
2000
这能打造一幅好漫画
01:28
But what are you going to do with a flat track pad,
27
73000
2000
但是你们打算怎么对付一块平的触控板
01:30
those square things?
28
75000
2000
那些方方正正的东西？
01:32
There's nothing I can do as a cartoonist.
29
77000
2000
作为一个漫画家我无计可施
01:34
Well, I know the world is flat now.
30
79000
3000
好，我知道世界现在是平的了
01:37
That's true.
31
82000
1000
那千真万确
01:38
And the Internet has reached
32
83000
2000
因特网已经进入
01:40
every corner of the world,
33
85000
2000
世界的每个角落
01:42
the poorest, the remotest places.
34
87000
2000
甚至是最贫穷，最偏远的地区
01:44
Every village in Africa now has a cyber cafe.
35
89000
3000
现在非洲的每一个村庄都有公共网吧
01:49
(Laughter)
36
94000
6000
（笑声）
01:55
Don't go asking for a Frappuccino there.
37
100000
3000
别去那儿点杯星冰乐
01:59
So we are bridging the digital divide.
38
104000
3000
所以我们正架起连接信息鸿沟的桥梁
02:02
The Third World is connected,
39
107000
2000
连接起第三世界
02:04
we are connected.
40
109000
2000
连接起我们所有人
02:06
And what happens next?
41
111000
2000
那么下一步会发生什么？
02:08
Well, you've got mail.
42
113000
3000
好吧，你们收到了邮件
02:13
Yeah.
43
118000
2000
是呀
02:15
Well, the Internet has empowered us.
44
120000
3000
好吧，因特网给我们力量
02:18
It has empowered you,
45
123000
2000
给你力量
02:20
it has empowered me
46
125000
2000
给我力量
02:22
and it has empowered some other guys as well.
47
127000
3000
而且也给其他一些家伙力量
02:26
(Laughter)
48
131000
5000
(笑声）
02:31
You know, these last two cartoons --
49
136000
2000
你知道，这后面两张漫画是
02:33
I did them live
50
138000
2000
我当场
02:35
during a conference in Hanoi.
51
140000
2000
在河内的一次会议期间所作
02:37
And they were not used to that
52
142000
3000
在共产主义2.0版的越南
02:40
in communist 2.0 Vietnam.
53
145000
3000
他们对这些并不习惯
02:43
(Laughter)
54
148000
2000
（笑声）
02:45
So I was cartooning live on a wide screen --
55
150000
3000
所以我正在一个宽屏幕上当场作画
02:48
it was quite a sensation --
56
153000
2000
当时相当轰动
02:50
and then this guy came to me.
57
155000
2000
然后这家伙过来了
02:52
He was taking pictures of me and of my sketches,
58
157000
2000
他对着我和我的速写拍照
02:54
and I thought, "This is great, a Vietnamese fan."
59
159000
4000
我想：“太好了，一个越南粉丝。”
02:58
And as he came the second day,
60
163000
2000
当他第二天又来了的时候
03:00
I thought, "Wow, that's really a cartoon lover."
61
165000
3000
我想：“哇，真是个漫画爱好者！”
03:03
And on the third day, I finally understood,
62
168000
2000
直到第三天，我终于明白
03:05
the guy was actually on duty.
63
170000
3000
这家伙实际上是在执勤
03:09
So by now, there must be a hundred pictures of me
64
174000
2000
所以到现在为止，一定有一百多张我
03:11
smiling with my sketches
65
176000
2000
拿着我的速写笑对镜头的照片
03:13
in the files of the Vietnamese police.
66
178000
3000
存放在越南警察局的档案里
03:16
(Laughter)
67
181000
2000
（笑声）
03:18
No, but it's true: the Internet has changed the world.
68
183000
3000
不，但这千真万确：因特网已经改变了这个世界
03:21
It has rocked the music industry;
69
186000
2000
它已震撼了音乐产业
03:23
it has changed the way we consume music.
70
188000
2000
它改变了我们消费音乐的方式
03:25
For those of you old enough to remember,
71
190000
2000
你们中那些上了年纪的人一定记得
03:27
we used to have to go to the store
72
192000
2000
我们过去常常得走进店家
03:29
to steal it.
73
194000
2000
顺手牵羊
03:31
(Laughter)
74
196000
3000
（笑声）
03:35
And it has changed the way
75
200000
2000
而且因特网已经改变了
03:37
your future employer
76
202000
2000
你未来的老板
03:39
will look at your application.
77
204000
2000
审视你的应聘简历的方式
03:41
So be careful
78
206000
2000
所以小心
03:43
with that Facebook account --
79
208000
3000
你的facebook帐户
03:46
your momma told you, be careful.
80
211000
3000
你妈妈告诉过你，当心点准没错
03:50
And technology has set us free --
81
215000
3000
而且科学技术让我们获得自由
03:54
this is free WiFi.
82
219000
2000
这是免费的无线上网
03:56
But yeah, it has liberated us
83
221000
2000
但真的，它把我们
03:58
from the office desk.
84
223000
3000
从办公桌旁解放了出来
04:01
This is your life,
85
226000
2000
这就是你的生活
04:04
enjoy it.
86
229000
2000
尽情享受吧
04:06
(Laughter)
87
231000
3000
（笑声）
04:09
In short, technology, the internet,
88
234000
3000
简而言之，科技，因特网
04:12
they have changed our lifestyle.
89
237000
3000
它们已经改变了我们的生活方式
04:15
Tech guru, like this man --
90
240000
2000
科技领袖们，比如这位先生——
04:17
that a German magazine called the philosopher of the 21st century --
91
242000
3000
一本德国杂志称其为21世纪的哲学家
04:20
they are shaping the way we do things.
92
245000
2000
他们正塑造着我们的行事方式
04:22
They are shaping the way we consume.
93
247000
2000
他们正塑造着我们的消费方式
04:24
They are shaping our very desires.
94
249000
3000
他们正塑造着我们的特殊愿望
04:27
(Laughter)
95
252000
4000
（笑声）
04:31
(Applause)
96
256000
6000
（掌声）
04:38
You will not like it.
97
263000
3000
你不会喜欢
04:42
And technology has even changed
98
267000
2000
而且科技甚至已经改变了
04:44
our relationship to God.
99
269000
3000
我们同上帝的关系
04:47
(Laughter)
100
272000
6000
（笑声）
04:53
Now I shouldn't get into this.
101
278000
2000
现在我不该染指这一问题
04:55
Religion and political cartoons,
102
280000
2000
宗教和政治漫画
04:57
as you may have heard,
103
282000
2000
你们也许听说过
04:59
make a difficult couple,
104
284000
2000
很难成双入对
05:01
ever since that day of 2005,
105
286000
2000
自从2005年的那一天
05:03
when a bunch of cartoonists in Denmark
106
288000
2000
当时丹麦的一群漫画家
05:05
drew cartoons that had repercussions all over the world --
107
290000
3000
他们的漫画在全世界产生反响
05:08
demonstrations, fatwa,
108
293000
2000
游行，教令裁决
05:10
they provoked violence. People died in the violence.
109
295000
3000
他们挑起了暴力，人们在暴力中丧命
05:13
This was so sickening;
110
298000
2000
这是如此令人厌恶
05:15
people died because of cartoons.
111
300000
3000
人们因漫画而殒命
05:19
I mean --
112
304000
2000
我的意思是——
05:23
I had the feeling at the time
113
308000
2000
当时我有这种感觉
05:25
that cartoons had been used by both sides, actually.
114
310000
3000
实际上，那些漫画被事件的双方所利用
05:28
They were used first by a Danish newspaper,
115
313000
2000
最初它们被丹麦报纸所利用
05:30
which wanted to make a point on Islam.
116
315000
2000
报纸想证明其对伊斯兰教的看法
05:32
A Danish cartoonist told me he was one of the 24
117
317000
3000
一位丹麦漫画家告诉我，他是24位
05:35
who received the assignment to draw the prophet --
118
320000
2000
接受描画先知穆罕默德的任务的画家之一
05:37
12 of them refused. Did you know that?
119
322000
3000
你们知道吗？其中的12位画家拒绝了这一任务
05:40
He told me, "Nobody has to tell me what I should draw.
120
325000
3000
他告诉我：“没人能指挥我该画些什么，
05:43
This is not how it works."
121
328000
2000
漫画不是这样创作出来的。”
05:45
And then, of course, they were used
122
330000
2000
然后，当然，他们又被
05:47
by extremists and politicians on the other side.
123
332000
3000
另一方的极端分子和政治家所利用
05:50
They wanted to stir up controversy.
124
335000
2000
他们想要挑起争端
05:52
You know the story.
125
337000
2000
你们知道这个故事
05:55
We know that cartoons can be used as weapons.
126
340000
3000
我们知道，漫画可以被用作武器
05:58
History tells us,
127
343000
2000
历史告诉我们
06:00
they've been used by the Nazis
128
345000
2000
漫画曾被纳粹德国所利用
06:02
to attack the Jews.
129
347000
2000
来攻击犹太人
06:04
And here we are now.
130
349000
2000
而现在
06:06
In the United Nations,
131
351000
2000
在联合国
06:08
half of the world is pushing
132
353000
3000
世界上的一半国家正敦促
06:11
to penalize the offense to religion --
133
356000
2000
对冒犯宗教信仰进行惩戒——
06:13
they call it the defamation of religion --
134
358000
2000
他们称之为宗教诽谤——
06:15
while the other half of the world is fighting back
135
360000
2000
而世界的另一半的正在反击它
06:17
in defense of freedom of speech.
136
362000
3000
以保护言论的自由
06:20
So the clash of civilizations is here,
137
365000
2000
所以这就有了文明冲突
06:22
and cartoons are at the middle of it?
138
367000
3000
而漫画被夹在其中
06:26
This got me thinking.
139
371000
3000
这引起我的思考
06:29
Now you see me thinking
140
374000
2000
现在你看见我在苦思冥想
06:31
at my kitchen table,
141
376000
2000
在我的厨房桌旁
06:33
and since you're in my kitchen,
142
378000
2000
既然你们在我家厨房
06:35
please meet my wife.
143
380000
2000
请认识一下我的夫人
06:37
(Laughter)
144
382000
6000
（笑声）
06:43
In 2006, a few months after,
145
388000
3000
在2006年，也就是几个月后
06:46
I went Ivory Coast --
146
391000
2000
我去了象牙海岸——
06:48
Western Africa.
147
393000
2000
西部非洲
06:50
Now, talk of a divided place -- the country was cut in two.
148
395000
3000
现在，讨论一下一个分裂的地区。这个国家被分割成两部分
06:53
You had a rebellion in the North,
149
398000
2000
北部是叛军
06:55
the government in the South -- the capital, Abidjan --
150
400000
2000
政府军在南部，那里有首都，阿比让
06:57
and in the middle, the French army.
151
402000
3000
而中间是法国军队
07:00
This looks like a giant hamburger.
152
405000
2000
这看上去像一只巨大的汉堡包
07:02
You don't want to be the ham in the middle.
153
407000
3000
你不想成为夹在其中的火腿吧
07:07
I was there to report on that story
154
412000
2000
我在那儿报道那个事件
07:09
in cartoons.
155
414000
2000
用漫画的形式
07:11
I've been doing this for the last 15 years;
156
416000
3000
在过去的15年里我一直这样工作
07:14
it's my side job, if you want.
157
419000
2000
这是我的副业，如果你也想干的话
07:16
So you see the style is different.
158
421000
2000
所以你看，风格不一样
07:18
This is more serious than maybe editorial cartooning.
159
423000
3000
这也许比社论漫画更严肃
07:21
I went to places like Gaza
160
426000
3000
我去过一些地方，如加沙
07:24
during the war in 2009.
161
429000
3000
在2009年的战争期间
07:27
So this is really journalism in cartoons.
162
432000
2000
所以这是真正的新闻漫画
07:29
You'll hear more and more about it.
163
434000
2000
你会听到越来越多的关于它的内容
07:31
This is the future of journalism, I think.
164
436000
3000
我认为这是新闻工作的未来
07:35
And of course, I went to see the rebels in the north.
165
440000
3000
当然，我去见了北部的叛军
07:38
Those were poor guys fighting for their rights.
166
443000
2000
那是些为争取自己权利而战的穷小子
07:40
There was an ethnic side to this conflict
167
445000
2000
这场冲突中有种族因素
07:42
as very often in Africa.
168
447000
3000
这在非洲很常见
07:45
And I went to see the Dozo.
169
450000
2000
我还去见了当地土著Dozo人
07:47
The Dozo, they are the traditional hunters
170
452000
2000
这些当地的Dozo人是
07:49
of West Africa.
171
454000
2000
西非的传统猎人
07:51
People fear them --
172
456000
2000
人们惧怕他们
07:53
they help the rebellion a lot.
173
458000
2000
他们经常帮助叛军
07:55
They are believed to have magical powers.
174
460000
2000
人们相信他们有神奇的力量
07:57
They can disappear and escape bullets.
175
462000
3000
他们能隐身，还能避弹
08:01
I went to see a Dozo chief;
176
466000
2000
我去见了一位Dozo人酋长
08:03
he told me about his magical powers.
177
468000
3000
他告诉我他的这种神奇的力量
08:06
He said, "I can chop your head off right away
178
471000
3000
他说：“我可以马上把你的脑袋砍下来
08:09
and bring you back to life."
179
474000
3000
然后让你复活。“
08:12
I said, "Well, maybe we don't have time for this right now."
180
477000
3000
我说，“哦，也许现在我们没时间这么干。”
08:15
(Laughter)
181
480000
2000
（笑声）
08:17
"Another time."
182
482000
2000
“下次吧。”
08:19
So back in Abidjan,
183
484000
3000
那么回到阿比让
08:22
I was given a chance to lead a workshop
184
487000
2000
我有一次机会来领导一个工作室
08:24
with local cartoonists there
185
489000
2000
同那儿的当地漫画家一起
08:26
and I thought, yes,
186
491000
2000
我想，是的，
08:28
in a context like this, cartoons can really be used as weapons
187
493000
3000
在像这样一种情况下，漫画真的可以被用作武器
08:31
against the other side.
188
496000
2000
来对抗另一方
08:33
I mean, the press in Ivory Coast was bitterly divided --
189
498000
4000
我的意思是，象牙海岸的新闻界严重分裂
08:37
it was compared to the media in Rwanda
190
502000
2000
可以与
08:39
before the genocide --
191
504000
2000
种族灭绝前的卢旺达媒体相提并论
08:41
so imagine.
192
506000
2000
所以想象一下
08:43
And what can a cartoonist do?
193
508000
2000
一个漫画家可以有何作为？
08:45
Sometimes editors would tell their cartoonists
194
510000
2000
有时候编辑会告诉他们手下的漫画家
08:47
to draw what they wanted to see,
195
512000
2000
画些他们想看的东西
08:49
and the guy has to feed his family, right?
196
514000
3000
而这手下得养家糊口，对吗
08:53
So the idea was pretty simple.
197
518000
2000
这样构思就非常简单了
08:55
We brought together cartoonists
198
520000
3000
我们把
08:58
from all sides in Ivory Coast.
199
523000
3000
象牙海岸所有不同立场的漫画家聚集在一起
09:01
We took them away from their newspaper for three days.
200
526000
3000
我们让他们离开他们的报社3天
09:04
And I asked them to do a project together,
201
529000
3000
我要求他们一起合作一个项目
09:07
tackle the issues affecting their country
202
532000
3000
用漫画来处理困扰他们国家的问题
09:10
in cartoons, yes, in cartoons.
203
535000
3000
是的，用漫画的形式
09:13
Show the positive power of cartoons.
204
538000
2000
来表现漫画的积极力量
09:15
It's a great tool of communication
205
540000
2000
这是一种伟大的交流工具
09:17
for bad or for good.
206
542000
2000
不论是好是坏
09:19
And cartoons can cross boundaries,
207
544000
2000
漫画可以超越某些界限
09:21
as you have seen.
208
546000
2000
正如你所看见的
09:23
And humor is a good way, I think,
209
548000
2000
而且我认为，幽默是一种
09:25
to address serious issues.
210
550000
3000
表达严肃问题的好方式
09:28
And I'm very proud of what they did.
211
553000
2000
而且我对他们所作所为感到非常骄傲
09:30
I mean, they didn't agree with each other -- that was not the point.
212
555000
3000
我的意思是，他们并不互相苟同——那并不重要
09:33
And I didn't ask them to do nice cartoons.
213
558000
2000
而且我没有要求他们画好漫画
09:35
The first day, they were even shouting at each other.
214
560000
2000
第一天，他们甚至互相吼叫
09:37
But they came up with a book,
215
562000
2000
但是他们最终出了本书
09:39
looking back at 13 years
216
564000
3000
回顾了13年来
09:42
of political crisis in Ivory Coast.
217
567000
3000
象牙海岸的政治危机
09:45
So the idea was there.
218
570000
2000
所以他们的想法都在书里
09:47
And I've been doing projects like this,
219
572000
2000
而且我一直在做类似的项目
09:49
in 2009 in Lebanon,
220
574000
2000
2009年在黎巴嫩
09:51
this year in Kenya, back in January.
221
576000
3000
今年1月份，在肯尼亚
09:54
In Lebanon, it was not a book.
222
579000
2000
在黎巴嫩时，没有出书
09:56
The idea was to have --
223
581000
2000
构思建立在
09:58
the same principal, a divided country --
224
583000
2000
相同的原则上，一个分裂的国家——
10:00
take cartoonists from all sides
225
585000
2000
来自各方立场的漫画家
10:02
and let them do something together.
226
587000
2000
让他们一起合作
10:04
So in Lebanon,
227
589000
2000
于是在黎巴嫩
10:06
we enrolled the newspaper editors,
228
591000
2000
我们拉报纸编辑们入伙
10:08
and we got them to publish
229
593000
2000
而且我们让他们把
10:10
eight cartoonists from all sides all together on the same page,
230
595000
3000
来自敌对各方的8位漫画家的作品一起发表在同一版面上
10:13
addressing the issue affecting Lebanon,
231
598000
3000
讨论困扰黎巴嫩的问题
10:16
like religion in politics and everyday life.
232
601000
3000
如政治中的宗教问题和日常生活问题
10:19
And it worked.
233
604000
2000
这个方法起作用了
10:21
For three days, almost all the newspapers of Beirut
234
606000
3000
整整3天，几乎贝鲁特所有的报纸
10:24
published all those cartoonists together --
235
609000
2000
都一起发表了那些漫画作品
10:26
anti-government,
236
611000
2000
反政府报纸
10:28
pro-government,
237
613000
2000
亲政府报纸
10:30
Christian,
238
615000
3000
基督教报纸
10:33
Muslim, of course,
239
618000
2000
当然，还有穆斯林报纸
10:35
English-speaking, well, you name it.
240
620000
2000
英语报，嗯，你能想得到的所有报纸
10:37
So this was a great project.
241
622000
2000
所以这是一个了不起的项目
10:39
And then in Kenya, what we did
242
624000
3000
然后在肯尼亚，我们所做的项目
10:42
was addressing the issue of ethnicity,
243
627000
2000
是讨论种族问题
10:44
which is a poison in a lot of places in Africa.
244
629000
3000
这在非洲的许多地方是个棘手问题
10:47
And we did video clips --
245
632000
3000
而且我们制作了视频剪辑
10:50
you can see them if you go to YouTube/Kenyatoons.
246
635000
3000
如果你们上Youtube/kenyatunes就可以观看这个视频
10:57
So, preaching for freedom of speech
247
642000
2000
所以，在这儿宣扬言论自由
10:59
is easy here,
248
644000
2000
是小事一桩
11:01
but as you have seen
249
646000
2000
但是正如你所知道的
11:03
in contexts of repression or division,
250
648000
3000
在高压或分裂状态下
11:06
again, what can a cartoonist do?
251
651000
2000
一个漫画家又能做些什么呢？
11:08
He has to keep his job.
252
653000
3000
他得保住饭碗
11:12
Well I believe that in any context anywhere,
253
657000
3000
嗯， 我相信在任何地方的任何情况下
11:15
he always has the choice at least
254
660000
2000
他的选择总是起码
11:17
not to do a cartoon
255
662000
2000
避免作一幅漫画
11:19
that will feed hatred.
256
664000
3000
来助长人与人之间的仇恨
11:22
And that's the message I try to convey to them.
257
667000
3000
那就是我想向他们传达的信息
11:25
I think we all always have the choice in the end
258
670000
3000
我认为，无论是谁一直到最后都有机会选择
11:28
not to do the bad thing.
259
673000
3000
不做坏事
11:32
But we need to support
260
677000
2000
但是我们必须支持
11:34
these [unclear], critical
261
679000
2000
这些批判性的、
11:36
and responsible voices
262
681000
3000
负责任的声音
11:39
in Africa, in Lebanon,
263
684000
2000
不管是在非洲，还是在黎巴嫩
11:41
in your local newspaper,
264
686000
3000
不论是在当地的报纸上，
11:44
in the Apple store.
265
689000
3000
还是在苹果商店
11:48
Today, tech companies
266
693000
2000
如今，科技公司
11:50
are the world's largest editors.
267
695000
3000
成为世界上最大的编辑部
11:53
They decide what is too offensive
268
698000
2000
他们决定你们看的东西哪些太无礼
11:55
or too provocative for you to see.
269
700000
2000
哪些太具争议
11:57
So really, it's not about the freedom of cartoonists;
270
702000
3000
所以，真的，这不是事关漫画家的自由
12:00
it's about your freedoms.
271
705000
2000
这事关你们的自由
12:03
And for dictators all over the world,
272
708000
3000
而且对于全世界的独裁者来说
12:09
the good news
273
714000
2000
好消息就是
12:11
is when cartoonists,
274
716000
2000
当漫画家们
12:13
journalists and activists shut up.
275
718000
3000
记者们和社会活动积极分子们都闭嘴的时候
12:18
Thank you.
276
723000
2000
谢谢
12:20
(Applause)

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Patrick Chappatte - Editorial cartoonistUsing clean, simple pencil strokes, editorial cartoonist Patrick Chappatte wields globally literate and to-the-point humor on world events -- the tragic, the farcical and the absurd.
Why you should listen
Patrick Chappatte is a global soul. Born in Pakistan to a Lebanese mother and a Swiss father, raised in Singapore, he has lived in New York and lives now in Geneva, Switzerland. Perhaps this explains his way of looking at world events, applying the unfettered perspective of humor to the tragic, the farcical and the absurd.
His simple line delivers pointed jokes. He draws for The International Herald Tribune (in English) and for the Swiss newspapers Le Temps (in French) and NZZ am Sonntag (in German), and in all three languages the subtle insightfulness of his cartoons consistently robs you of a laugh, or more.
