每個演說都需要這張投影片。
00:18
(Laughter)
1
3000
2000
(笑聲)
00:20
It's beautiful, isn't it?
2
5000
2000
很漂亮，不是嗎？
00:22
Do you see?
3
7000
2000
你看到了嗎？
00:24
All the points, all the lines --
4
9000
2000
那些點和那些線，
00:26
it's incredible.
5
11000
2000
真的很驚人，
00:28
It is the network;
6
13000
2000
這就是網路。
00:30
and in my case, the network has been important in media,
7
15000
2000
在我看來，網路是很重要的媒介，
00:32
because I get to connect to people.
8
17000
3000
因為我得和人們交流。
00:35
Isn't it amazing?
9
20000
2000
很驚人，對吧？
00:37
Through that, I connect to people.
10
22000
3000
我是透過網路和人們交流的，
00:40
And the way that I've been doing it
11
25000
2000
交流的方式
00:42
has been multifaceted.
12
27000
2000
是具有多個面向的。
00:44
For example, I get people to dress up their vacuum cleaners.
13
29000
3000
舉例來說，我會要大家把自己的吸塵器好好裝扮一番，
00:47
(Laughter)
14
32000
5000
(笑聲)
00:52
I put together projects like Earth Sandwich,
15
37000
2000
我還發起了幾個計畫，像是「地球三明治」這個計畫，
00:54
where I ask people
16
39000
2000
我要參與的人
00:56
to try and simultaneously place
17
41000
2000
想辦法同時
00:58
two pieces of bread
18
43000
2000
在地球上完全對應的二個地點，
01:00
perfectly opposite each other on the Earth.
19
45000
2000
放置二片麵包。
01:02
And people started laying bread in tribute,
20
47000
3000
於是大家懷著崇敬的心開始放置他們的麵包，
01:05
and eventually a team was able to do it
21
50000
2000
最後，終於有一組人成功達成了！
01:07
between New Zealand and Spain.
22
52000
3000
他們分別是在紐西蘭和西班牙。
01:10
It's pretty incredible -- the video's online.
23
55000
3000
這真的很神奇！這段影片有放在網路上。
01:13
Connecting to people in projects
24
58000
2000
另外我也發起了其他可以串連起人們的計畫，
01:15
like YoungmeNowme for example.
25
60000
2000
像是「年輕的我，現在的我」，
01:17
In YoungmeNowme, the audience was asked
26
62000
2000
參與計畫的人要把自己
01:19
to find a childhood photograph of themselves
27
64000
3000
年輕時的照片和自己成年後的照片
01:22
and restage it as an adult.
28
67000
3000
並排比對。
01:25
(Laughter)
29
70000
12000
(笑聲)
01:37
This is the same person --
30
82000
2000
這是同一個人--
01:39
top photo, James, bottom photo, [Jennifer].
31
84000
3000
上面的是詹姆士，下面的是茱莉亞，
01:42
Poignant.
32
87000
2000
很刺激吧？
01:44
This was a Mother's Day gift.
33
89000
2000
這是母親節的禮物。
01:46
(Laughter)
34
91000
2000
(笑聲)
01:48
Particularly creepy.
35
93000
2000
看起來特別詭異。
01:50
(Applause)
36
95000
2000
(掌聲)
01:52
(Laughter)
37
97000
2000
(笑聲)
01:54
My favorite of these photos, which I couldn't find,
38
99000
2000
我最喜歡的照片現在還沒找到，
01:56
is there's a picture of a 30 year-old woman or so
39
101000
3000
我希望看到一張30歲左右的女子照片，
01:59
with a little baby on her lap,
40
104000
2000
有一個小嬰孩躺在她的腿上，
02:01
and the next photo is a 220-lb man
41
106000
3000
另一張則是一個重達100公斤的男人，
02:04
with a tiny, little old lady peaking over his shoulder.
42
109000
3000
有一個小小的老婦人趴在他的肩上。
02:08
But this project changed the way
43
113000
2000
但下面這個計畫，
02:10
that I thought about connecting to people.
44
115000
2000
徹底改變了我對於和人們交流的觀念，
02:12
This is project called Ray.
45
117000
2000
這個計畫叫做「瑞(Ray)」。
02:14
And what happened was I was sent this piece of audio
46
119000
3000
事情是這樣的，我收到一段錄音內容，
02:17
and had no idea who generated the audio.
47
122000
2000
而且完全不知道是誰錄的，
02:19
Somebody said, "You have to listen to this."
48
124000
3000
給我的人只說：「你得聽聽看。」
02:22
And this is what came to me.
49
127000
2000
所以這就是我聽到的：
02:24
Recording: Hi, my name is Ray,
50
129000
2000
錄音內容：嗨，我的名字是瑞，
02:26
and on yesterday my daughter called me
51
131000
2000
昨天我的女兒打電話給我，
02:28
because she was stressed out
52
133000
2000
她的壓力很大，
02:30
because of things that were going on on her job
53
135000
2000
因為工作上的某件事情
02:32
that she felt was quite unfair.
54
137000
3000
讓她覺得很不公平。
02:35
Being quite disturbed, she called for comfort,
55
140000
2000
她心裡很不平靜，希望我能給她安慰，
02:37
and I didn't really know what to tell her,
56
142000
2000
但我不知道該說些什麼才好，
02:39
because we have to deal with so much mess in our society.
57
144000
3000
因為我們在社會上總是得處理一些烏煙瘴氣的事。
02:42
So I was led to write this song just for her,
58
147000
3000
所以我想要為她寫一首歌，
02:46
just to give her some encouragement
59
151000
2000
一首能給她勇氣、
02:48
while dealing with stress and pressures on her job.
60
153000
3000
讓她能處理工作上的壓力的歌。
02:51
And I figured I'd put it on the Internet
61
156000
2000
我想，如果我把這首歌放在網路上，
02:53
for all employees under stress
62
158000
2000
那麼其他在職場上遭遇壓力的員工們，
02:55
to help you better deal with what you're going through on your job.
63
160000
3000
也能妥善地處理自己的壓力。
02:58
Here's how the song goes.
64
163000
2000
這首歌是這樣唱的：
03:00
♫ I'm about to whip somebody's ass ♫
65
165000
6000
♫ 我要打某人的屁股 ♫
03:06
♫ Oh, I'm about to whip somebody's ass ♫
66
171000
7000
♫ 噢，我要去打某人的屁股 ♫
03:14
♫ Oh, if you don't leave me alone, ♫
67
179000
4000
♫ 噢，如果你不走開的話 ♫
03:18
♫ you gonna have to send me home ♫
68
183000
3000
♫ 你就得送我回家 ♫
03:21
♫ 'Cause I'm about to whip somebody's ass ♫
69
186000
5000
♫ 因為我要去打某人的屁股 ♫
03:26
Now you might not be able to sing that out loud,
70
191000
3000
你們現在可能不方便大聲唱出來，
03:29
but you can hum it to yourself, and you know what the words are.
71
194000
3000
但你們可以在心裡哼唱，反正你們已經知道歌詞了。
03:32
And let it give you some strength to get the next few moments on your job.
72
197000
3000
希望這首歌能在你的職場上為你帶來力量，
03:35
All right. Stay strong. Peace.
73
200000
3000
好，要堅強、和平哦！
03:38
Ze Frank: So -- yeah.
74
203000
2000
傑．法蘭克：好，
03:40
No, no, no, shush. We've got to go quickly.
75
205000
3000
不，不，不，噓！我們得進行得快一點。
03:44
So I was so moved by this --
76
209000
2000
我被這首歌深深地感動了，
03:46
this is incredible. This was connecting, right.
77
211000
2000
真的很不可思議！這才是和人們交流的方式，對吧？
03:48
This was, at a distance,
78
213000
2000
人和人間隔著一大段距離，
03:50
realizing that someone was feeling something,
79
215000
2000
但卻能感受到彼此的感覺，
03:52
wanting to affect them in a particular way,
80
217000
2000
而你希望以某種特別的方式來感動另一個人，
03:54
using media to do it, putting it online
81
219000
2000
你可以選擇不同的媒介，把它放在網路上，
03:56
and realizing that there was a greater impact.
82
221000
2000
你就會發現所產生的影響有多麼巨大。
03:58
This was incredible; this is what I wanted to do.
83
223000
2000
這真的很驚人！這就是我想要做的！
04:00
So the first thing I thought of is we have to thank him.
84
225000
2000
我想到的第一件事是我得感謝這個人，
04:02
And I asked my audience, I said, "Listen to this piece of audio.
85
227000
2000
所以我問我的聽眾：「聽聽看這段錄音，
04:04
We have to remix it. He's got a great voice.
86
229000
3000
我們得幫它重新配樂，他的聲音太棒了！
04:07
It's actually in the key of B flat.
87
232000
3000
這首歌還定在降B調哩！
04:10
And have to do something with it."
88
235000
2000
我一定要為他做些什麼。」
04:12
Hundreds of remixes came back -- lots of different attempts.
89
237000
3000
數以百計重新配樂後的版本寄回來給我，其中有各式各樣的配樂，
04:15
One stood out in particular.
90
240000
2000
其中有一個版本非常特別，
04:17
It was done by a guy named Goose.
91
242000
3000
是一個叫做古斯的傢伙做的。
04:20
Remix: ♫ I'm about to whip somebody's ass ♫
92
245000
7000
重新配樂：♫ 我要打某人的屁股 ♫
04:27
♫ Oh, I'm about to whip somebody's ass ♫
93
252000
8000
♫ 噢，我要去打某人的屁股 ♫
04:36
♫ Oh, if you don't leave me alone, ♫
94
261000
4000
♫ 噢，如果你不走開的話 ♫
04:40
♫ You gonna have to send me home ♫
95
265000
4000
♫ 你就得送我回家 ♫
04:44
♫ Cuz I'm about to whip somebody's ass ♫
96
269000
6000
♫ 因為我要去打某人的屁股 ♫
04:59
♫ I'm about to whip some ♫ --
97
284000
4000
♫ 我要打某人的... ♫
05:03
ZF: Great, so it was incredible.
98
288000
2000
法蘭克：太棒了！真的很棒！
05:05
That song -- (Applause) Thank you.
99
290000
3000
這首歌...(掌聲)謝謝！
05:08
So that song, somebody told me that it was at a baseball game
100
293000
3000
有人告訴我，堪薩斯的某場棒球比賽裡
05:11
in Kansas City.
101
296000
2000
曾播放這首歌，
05:13
In the end,
102
298000
2000
於是，
05:15
it was one of the top downloads
103
300000
2000
這首歌登上了
05:17
on a whole bunch of music streaming services.
104
302000
2000
某個音樂下載網站的第一名，
05:19
And so I said, "Let's put this together in an album."
105
304000
3000
所以我說：「我們把這首歌收錄在唱片裡吧！」
05:22
And the audience came together, and they designed an album cover.
106
307000
2000
所有的聽眾都集合起來，一起設計了唱片的封面，
05:24
And I said, "If you put it all on this, I'm going to deliver it to him,
107
309000
3000
我說：「如果你們要收錄這首歌，我就得把唱片送給這個人，
05:27
if you can figure out who this person is,"
108
312000
3000
但你們得先找出這個人是誰才行。」
05:30
because all I had was his name -- Ray --
109
315000
3000
因為我只知道他的名字是瑞，
05:33
and this little piece of audio
110
318000
2000
我也只聽過這段錄音，
05:35
and the fact that his daughter was upset.
111
320000
3000
只知道他的女兒很不開心而已。
05:38
In two weeks, they found him.
112
323000
2000
不到二個星期，他們就找到這個人了，
05:40
I received and email and it said,
113
325000
2000
我收到一封電子郵件，上面說：
05:42
"Hi, I'm Ray.
114
327000
2000
「嗨，我是瑞，
05:44
I heard you were looking for me."
115
329000
2000
聽說你在找我。」
05:46
(Laughter)
116
331000
2000
(笑聲)
05:48
And I was like, "Yeah, Ray.
117
333000
2000
我回答：「對呀，瑞，
05:50
It's been an interesting two weeks."
118
335000
3000
這二個星期很有趣呢！」
05:53
And so I flew to St. Louis
119
338000
2000
因此，我飛去了聖路易，
05:55
and met Ray,
120
340000
2000
去拜訪瑞，
05:57
and he's a preacher --
121
342000
2000
他是個牧師。
05:59
(Laughter)
122
344000
2000
(笑聲)
06:02
among other things.
123
347000
2000
他還有做一些其他的事。
06:04
So but anyways, here's the thing --
124
349000
2000
不管怎樣，這張圖
06:06
is it reminds me of this,
125
351000
2000
讓我想到這件事，
06:08
which is a sign that you see in Amsterdam on every street corner.
126
353000
3000
這張圖是你在阿姆斯特丹每個街角都看得到的圖，
06:11
And it's sort of a metaphor for me for the virtual world.
127
356000
3000
對我來說卻像是虛擬世界的某種比喻。
06:14
I look at this photo, and he seems really interested
128
359000
3000
我仔細看了這張圖，裡面的人
06:17
in what's going on with that button,
129
362000
2000
似乎對那個按鈕很感興趣，
06:19
but it doesn't seem like he is really that interested in crossing the street.
130
364000
3000
反而對過馬路這件事沒那麼在意。
06:22
(Laughter)
131
367000
2000
(笑聲)
06:24
And it makes me think of this.
132
369000
2000
這讓我聯想到，
06:26
On street corners everywhere, people are looking at their cell phones,
133
371000
3000
在每一個街角上，都有人注視著自己的手機，
06:29
and it's easy to dismiss this
134
374000
2000
你可以輕易地把這類行為
06:31
as some sort of bad trend
135
376000
2000
歸類為人類文化中
06:33
in human culture.
136
378000
2000
的壞習慣，
06:35
But the truth is
137
380000
2000
但是，
06:37
life is being lived there.
138
382000
2000
那些人卻自得其樂。
06:39
When they smile --
139
384000
2000
當他們對著手機微笑，
06:41
right, you've seen people stop --
140
386000
3000
你一定有看過有人停下來，
06:44
all of a sudden, life is being lived there,
141
389000
2000
突然間，詭異、擁擠的網路世界
06:46
somewhere up in that weird, dense network.
142
391000
3000
變成了他的真實生活，
06:50
And this is it, right, to feel and be felt.
143
395000
3000
他在那裡才能感受到別人，別人也才能感受到他的存在，
06:53
It's the fundamental force
144
398000
2000
那是我們所追求
06:55
that we're all after.
145
400000
2000
最原始的動力。
06:57
We can build all sorts of environments
146
402000
2000
我們可以創造各式環境
06:59
to make it a little bit easier,
147
404000
2000
讓網路更容易使用，
07:01
but ultimately, what we're trying to do
148
406000
2000
但是，我們所做的其實是
07:03
is really connect with one other person.
149
408000
3000
要讓人們彼此交流，
07:06
And that's not always going to happen in physical spaces.
150
411000
2000
但並不一定要在實體空間裡交流，
07:08
It's also going to now happen in virtual spaces,
151
413000
3000
在虛擬空間裡也可以交流，
07:11
and we have to get better at figuring that out.
152
416000
2000
我們必須體認到這一點。
07:13
I think, of the people that build all this technology in the network,
153
418000
3000
我認為，這麼多人在網路上創造了這麼多新的科技，
07:16
a lot of them aren't very good
154
421000
2000
但這些人並不一定
07:18
at connecting with people.
155
423000
2000
很擅長與別人交流，
07:20
This is kind of like something I used to do
156
425000
2000
這簡直就像是我小學三年級時
07:22
in third grade.
157
427000
2000
會做的事。(你喜歡我嗎？是／否)
07:24
(Laughter)
158
429000
2000
(笑聲)
07:26
So here's a series of projects
159
431000
2000
所以我們在過去幾年
07:28
over the last few years
160
433000
2000
發起了一連串的計畫，
07:30
where I've been inspired by trying to figure out
161
435000
3000
這一切都起因於我想要瞭解
07:33
how to really facilitate close connection.
162
438000
3000
要怎麼讓人們更親密地交流。
07:36
Sometimes they're very, very simple things.
163
441000
2000
有時候，這不過是再簡單不過的事而已。
07:38
A Childhood Walk, which is a project
164
443000
2000
「童年漫步」，在這個計畫裡，
07:40
where I ask people to remember a walk
165
445000
2000
我請參與者回想他們童年時，
07:42
that they used to take as a child over and over again
166
447000
3000
被大人帶著走了一遍又一遍的路，
07:45
that was sort of meaningless --
167
450000
2000
雖然可能不具任何意義，
07:47
like on the route to the bus stop, to a neighbor's house,
168
452000
3000
像是去公車站那段路，或是去鄰居家那段路，
07:50
and take it inside of Google Streetview.
169
455000
2000
但我要他們將這個記憶融入Google的街景中。
07:52
And I promise you,
170
457000
2000
我告訴各位，
07:54
if you take that walk inside Google Streetview,
171
459000
2000
如果你將記憶融入Google街景中，
07:56
you come to a moment
172
461000
2000
你將會體會到在某個時刻，
07:58
where something comes back
173
463000
2000
有某種記憶回來了，
08:00
and hits you in the face.
174
465000
2000
就直接衝進你的大腦裡。
08:02
And I collected those moments --
175
467000
2000
而我，則將這個特別的時刻撿拾起來，
08:04
the photos inside Google Streetview
176
469000
2000
特別是大家針對Google街景
08:06
and the memories, specifically.
177
471000
2000
所引發的記憶。
08:08
"Our conversation started with me saying, 'I'm bored,'
178
473000
3000
「我們的談話是因為我說了一句『我很無聊』而開始的，
08:11
and her replying, 'When I'm bored I eat pretzels.'
179
476000
2000
她的回答是『我無聊的時候會吃椒鹽脆餅』，
08:13
I remember this distinctly because it came up a lot."
180
478000
3000
我的記憶歷歷在目，因為我經常想起這一段對話。」
08:16
"Right after he told me and my brother
181
481000
2000
「就在他告訴我和弟弟
08:18
he was going to be separating from my mom,
182
483000
2000
他要和媽媽離婚之後沒多久，
08:20
I remember walking to a convenience store
183
485000
2000
我記得我走到便利商店，
08:22
and getting a cherry cola."
184
487000
2000
買了一罐櫻桃可樂。」
08:24
"They used some of the morbidly artist footage,
185
489000
2000
「他們的畫法有點像病態藝術家所畫的足印，
08:26
a close-up of Chad's shoes in the middle of the highway.
186
491000
2000
查德的鞋印被特寫畫在在高速公速中間，
08:28
I guess the shoes came off when he was hit.
187
493000
3000
我猜是在他被撞後掉在那裡的。
08:31
He slept over at my house once, and he left his pillow.
188
496000
3000
他有一次睡在我家，枕頭還留在我家，
08:34
It had 'Chad' written in magic marker on it.
189
499000
2000
上面還有用奇異筆寫著「查德」的痕跡，
08:36
He died long after he left the pillow at my house,
190
501000
2000
雖然他在離開我家很久以後才去世，
08:38
but we never got around to returning it."
191
503000
2000
但我們再也沒有機會可以把枕頭還給他了。」
08:40
Sometimes they're a little bit more abstract.
192
505000
2000
有時人們的表達方式比較抽象，
08:42
This is Pain Pack.
193
507000
2000
這是「痛苦背包」，
08:44
Right after September 11th, last year,
194
509000
2000
是我們在去年9月11日之後所發起的計畫，
08:46
I was thinking about pain and the way that we disperse it,
195
511000
2000
我那時在思考有關痛苦以及人們如何去排解痛苦，
08:48
the way that we excise it from our bodies.
196
513000
3000
甚至如何將痛苦抒發出來。
08:51
So what I did is I opened up a hotline --
197
516000
2000
所以我就開啟了一條電話專線，
08:53
a hotline where people could leave voicemails of their pain,
198
518000
3000
人們可以打這支專線，將他們的痛苦留在語音信箱裡，
08:56
not necessarily related to that event.
199
521000
3000
但並不一定要和911事件相關。
08:59
And people called in and left messages like this.
200
524000
3000
人們打進來的留言是：
09:03
Recording: Okay, here's something.
201
528000
2000
電話錄音：好，我想說一件事，
09:07
I'm not alone,
202
532000
2000
我並不孤單，
09:09
and I am loved.
203
534000
2000
也有人愛我，
09:11
I'm really fortunate.
204
536000
3000
我真的很幸運。
09:15
But sometimes I feel really lonely.
205
540000
3000
但有時我真的覺得自己孤單一人，
09:19
And when I feel that way
206
544000
3000
每當我有這種感覺時，
09:25
even the smallest act of kindness
207
550000
3000
即使別人對我做出極微小的友善行為，
09:28
can make me cry.
208
553000
2000
也會讓我哭泣。
09:30
Like even people in convenience stores
209
555000
2000
就像有人在便利商店裡不經意地與我對望，
09:32
saying, "Have a nice day,"
210
557000
3000
然後對我說聲：
09:35
when they're accidentally looking me in the eye.
211
560000
4000
「祝你有愉快的一天。」
09:41
ZF: So what I did was I took those voicemails,
212
566000
2000
法蘭：我所做的，是把這些留言蒐集起來，
09:43
and with their permission, converted them to MP3s
213
568000
3000
徵詢留言者的意見，把留言轉錄成MP3，
09:46
and distributed them to sound editors
214
571000
2000
發送給音效師們，
09:48
who created short sounds
215
573000
2000
讓他們可以利用這些留言
09:50
using just those voicemails.
216
575000
3000
創造出一些音效。
09:54
And those were then distributed to DJs
217
579000
3000
最後，這些音效會被分送給DJ們，
09:57
who have made hundreds of songs
218
582000
3000
他們會利用這些聲音素材
10:00
using that source material.
219
585000
3000
編寫出無數的歌曲。
10:05
(Music)
220
590000
2000
(音樂)
10:07
We don't have time to play much of it.
221
592000
2000
我們沒有太多時間可以播放太多內容，
10:09
You can look at it online.
222
594000
2000
你們可以自行上網去收聽這些內容。
10:11
"From 52 to 48 with love"
223
596000
2000
「用愛祝福52比48」
10:13
was a project around the time of the last election cycle,
224
598000
3000
是我們在上次總統大選後所發起的計畫，
10:16
where McCain and Obama both,
225
601000
2000
當時麥坎和歐巴馬二人
10:18
in their speeches after the election, talked about reconciliation,
226
603000
3000
都在大選後的演說中提到要族群和解，
10:21
and I was like, "What the hell
227
606000
2000
我心裡想：「那到底是
10:23
does that look like?"
228
608000
2000
什麼玩意兒？」
10:25
So I thought, "Well let's just give it a try.
229
610000
2000
但我又想：「我們就來試試看吧！
10:27
Let's have people hold up signs about reconciliation."
230
612000
3000
叫大家舉起族群和解的標誌來看看吧！」
10:30
And so some really nice things came together.
231
615000
2000
接下來我們就看到一些還真的不錯的東西出現了：
10:32
"I voted blue. I voted red.
232
617000
2000
「我投藍，我投紅，
10:34
Together, for our future."
233
619000
2000
一起為我們的未來努力。」
10:36
These are very, very cute little things right.
234
621000
3000
這些真的很可愛。
10:39
Some came from the winning party.
235
624000
2000
贏的那一方有人留下這個畫面：
10:41
"Dear 48, I promise to listen to you, to fight for you, to respect you always."
236
626000
3000
「親愛的48，我答應會傾聽你的心聲，為你奮鬥，也永遠尊重你的決定。」
10:44
Some came from the party who had just lost.
237
629000
2000
輸掉的陣營則有人留下這個畫面：
10:46
"From a 48 to a 52, may your party's leadership be as classy as you,
238
631000
3000
「48致52：希望你們的領袖都能像你們一樣有格調，
10:49
but I doubt it."
239
634000
2000
但我很懷疑。」
10:52
But the truth was that as this start becoming popular,
240
637000
3000
在這股風潮逐漸流行了起來之後，
10:55
a couple rightwing blogs and some message boards
241
640000
2000
我也發現，有些右翼的
10:57
apparently found it to be a little patronizing,
242
642000
2000
部落格或訊息版開始認為
10:59
which I could also see.
243
644000
2000
我們太囂張了，
11:01
And so I started getting amazing amounts of hate mail,
244
646000
3000
我就因此受到牽連，接到非常多的憤怒信函，
11:04
death threats even.
245
649000
2000
有些還威脅要我死。
11:06
And one guy in particular kept on writing me these pretty awful messages,
246
651000
3000
有一個傢伙還特別一直寫一些很糟糕的信給我，
11:09
and he was dressed as Batman.
247
654000
3000
他把自己打扮得像個蝙蝠俠，
11:12
And he said, "I'm dressed as Batman to hide my identity."
248
657000
3000
他說：「我打扮成蝙蝠俠是為了不以真面目示人。」
11:15
Just in case I thought the real Batman
249
660000
2000
或許他怕我會以為是真的
11:17
was coming after me;
250
662000
2000
蝙蝠俠在追我，
11:19
which actually made me feel a little better --
251
664000
2000
這真的讓我好過多了，
11:21
like, "Phew, it's not him."
252
666000
2000
我心想：「好險，不是他！」
11:23
So what I did --
253
668000
2000
我所做的...
11:25
unfortunately, I was harboring all this kind of
254
670000
2000
不幸的是，我總是把這類
11:27
awful experience and this pain inside of me,
255
672000
3000
不好的痛苦經驗隱藏起來，
11:30
and it started to eat away at my psyche.
256
675000
3000
耗費了我許多精神。
11:33
And I was protecting the project from it, I realized. I was protecting it --
257
678000
3000
我發現我是在保護這個計畫，我想保護這個計畫，
11:36
I didn't want this special, little group of photographs
258
681000
3000
我不希望這些特別的照片
11:39
to get sullied in some way.
259
684000
2000
被別人玷污，
11:41
So what I did, I took all those emails,
260
686000
3000
所以我把這些電子郵件
11:44
and I put them together into something called Angrigami,
261
689000
3000
全都蒐集起來，放進一個叫做「憤怒摺紙社(Angrigami)」的網站，
11:47
which was an origami template
262
692000
2000
用這些憤怒的信函
11:49
made out of this sort of vile stuff.
263
694000
2000
做成摺紙的型態。
11:51
And I asked people to send me beautiful things
264
696000
2000
我請大家用「憤怒摺紙社」裡的材料，
11:53
made out of the Angrigami.
265
698000
2000
幫我摺出些美麗的成品。
11:55
(Laughter)
266
700000
5000
(笑聲)
12:02
But this was the emotional moment.
267
707000
3000
這些真的很感人。
12:05
One of my viewer's uncles died on a particular day
268
710000
3000
我的一位讀者的舅舅在某個特別的日子裡去世了，
12:08
and he chose to commemorate it with a piece of hate.
269
713000
3000
他選擇以一份憤怒的摺紙來紀念他，
12:11
It's amazing.
270
716000
2000
這真的很特別！
12:13
The last thing I'm going to tell you about is a series of projects
271
718000
3000
最後，我想要告訴各位有關「你所熟知的歌曲」
12:16
called Songs You Already Know,
272
721000
3000
的一連串計畫，
12:19
where the idea was,
273
724000
2000
這個計畫的構想是
12:21
I was trying to figure out to address
274
726000
2000
希望集眾人之力，
12:23
particular kinds of emotions with group projects.
275
728000
3000
表達出某種特殊的情感。
12:26
So one of them was fairly straightforward.
276
731000
2000
其中的一個計畫非常直接，
12:28
A guy said that his daughter got scared at night
277
733000
2000
有個傢伙說他的女兒在晚上睡覺時被嚇到了，
12:30
and could I write a song for her, his daughter.
278
735000
2000
問我是否能幫她的女兒寫一首歌，
12:32
And I said, "Oh yeah,
279
737000
2000
我說，沒問題，
12:34
I'll try to write a mantra that she can sing to herself
280
739000
2000
我想我會寫一首類似祈禱文的歌，讓她可以唱給自己聽，
12:36
to help herself go to sleep."
281
741000
2000
幫助她進入夢鄉。
12:38
And this was "Scared."
282
743000
2000
這首歌叫做「害怕」：
12:54
(Video) ♫ This is a song that I sing when I'm scared of something ♫
283
759000
4000
(影片)♫ 每當我害怕我就唱這首歌 ♫
12:58
♫ I don't know why but it helps me get over it ♫
284
763000
4000
♫ 不知為何，這首歌能幫我克服恐懼 ♫
13:02
♫ The words of the song just move me along ♫
285
767000
4000
♫ 歌詞能帶給我前進的力量 ♫
13:06
♫ And somehow I get over it ♫
286
771000
3000
♫ 我就能克服恐懼 ♫
13:10
♫ At least I don't suck at life ♫
287
775000
3000
♫ 至少我不再覺得生活很糟 ♫
13:13
♫ I keep on trying despite ♫
288
778000
4000
♫ 我反而會儘力嚐試 ♫
13:17
♫ At least I don't suck at life ♫
289
782000
4000
♫ 至少我不再覺得生活很糟 ♫
13:21
♫ I keep on trying despite ♫
290
786000
3000
♫ 我反而會儘力嚐試 ♫
13:24
♫ This is a song that I sing when I'm scared of something ♫
291
789000
4000
♫ 每當我害怕我就唱這首歌 ♫
13:28
Okay, so I wrote that song, right. Thank you.
292
793000
4000
對，我寫了這首歌，謝謝！
13:32
So the nice thing was is he walked by his daughter's room at some point,
293
797000
3000
好消息是，有次當他走過他女兒的房間時，
13:35
and she actually was singing that song to herself.
294
800000
2000
她真的在對自己唱那首歌，
13:37
So I was like, "Awesome. This is great."
295
802000
2000
我心想：「哇！太棒了！」
13:39
And then I got this email. And there's a little bit of a back story to this.
296
804000
2000
然後我就收到這封電子郵件，他說明了之前的一些狀況，
13:41
And I don't have much time.
297
806000
2000
但我現在沒有足夠的時間可以唸出來。
13:43
But the idea was that at one point
298
808000
2000
這次的經驗
13:45
I did a project called Facebook Me Equals You,
299
810000
2000
促使我做了下一個計畫，叫做「讓我在Facebook變成你」，
13:47
where I wanted to experience what it was like
300
812000
2000
我希望體驗一下
13:49
to live as another person.
301
814000
2000
別人的生活是怎麼過的。
13:51
So I asked for people's usernames and passwords to be sent to me.
302
816000
3000
所以我徵求志願將用戶名稱和密碼交給我的人，
13:54
And I got a lot, like 30 in a half an hour.
303
819000
3000
在一個半小時內我就收到了30個志願者的來信，
13:57
And I shut that part down.
304
822000
2000
我只好先將這部分網站關閉。
13:59
And I chose two people to be,
305
824000
2000
後來我選擇了其中二個人，我想變成他們，
14:01
and I asked them to send me descriptions
306
826000
2000
所以我請他們告訴我
14:03
of how to act as them on Facebook.
307
828000
2000
要怎麼樣在Facebook上扮演他們的角色，
14:05
One person sent me a very detailed description;
308
830000
2000
有一個人寫了一長串詳細的內容給我，
14:07
the other person didn't.
309
832000
2000
另一個人則沒有。
14:09
And the person who didn't, it turned out,
310
834000
2000
我發現沒有提供我資料的那個人，
14:11
had just moved to a new city and taken on a new job.
311
836000
2000
其實剛剛搬到另外一個城市去接受另一份新的工作，
14:13
So, you know, people were writing me and saying, "How's your new job?"
312
838000
3000
然後我就接到有人寫信給我說：「你的新工作還好吧？」
14:16
I was like, "I don't know.
313
841000
2000
我只好回答：「我不知道耶...
14:18
Didn't know I had one."
314
843000
2000
我有換工作嗎？」
14:20
But anyway, this same person, Laura,
315
845000
3000
最後，這個換工作的人，也就是蘿拉，
14:23
ended up emailing me a little bit after that project.
316
848000
3000
在這個計畫結束之後寄了一些郵件給我，
14:26
And I felt badly for not having done a good job.
317
851000
3000
我覺得很不好意思，因為我沒有把她的角色扮演好。
14:29
And she said, "I'm really anxious, I just moved to a new town, I have this new job,
318
854000
3000
但她說：「我覺得很焦慮，我剛搬到這個新城市，又換了新工作，
14:32
and I've just had this incredible amount of anxiety."
319
857000
3000
我的焦慮感真的很強烈。」
14:35
So she had seen the "Scared" song and wondered if I could do something.
320
860000
3000
她聽過「害怕」這首歌，所以她問我是否能幫忙，
14:38
So I asked her, "What does it feel like when you feel this way?"
321
863000
3000
所以我問她：「當你焦慮的時候，你有什麼感覺？」
14:41
And she wrote a sort of descriptive set
322
866000
2000
她就把她焦慮的時候
14:43
of what it felt like to have had this anxiety.
323
868000
3000
所感覺到的想法寫了出來，
14:46
And so what I decided to do.
324
871000
2000
於是我就決定幫忙她。
14:48
I said, "Okay, I'll think about it."
325
873000
2000
我說：「我會考慮看看。」
14:50
And so quietly in the background, I started sending people this.
326
875000
3000
我悄悄地製作了一份錄音，並寄給許多人：
14:57
(Audio) ♫ Hey ♫
327
882000
2000
(錄音內容)♫ 嘿 ♫
14:59
♫ You're okay ♫
328
884000
3000
♫ 你可以的 ♫
15:03
♫ You'll be fine ♫
329
888000
3000
♫ 你會沒事 ♫
15:06
So I asked people
330
891000
2000
我詢問這些人
15:08
whether they had basic audio capabilities,
331
893000
3000
看他們有沒有一些基本的錄音設備，
15:11
just so they could sing along to the song with headphones on,
332
896000
3000
好讓他們在聽著耳機一邊唱的時候，
15:14
so I could just get their voices back.
333
899000
2000
把聲音錄下來寄回給我。
15:16
And this is the kind of thing that I got back.
334
901000
3000
我收到寄回來的錄音是：
15:21
Recording: ♫ Hey ♫
335
906000
3000
錄音內容：♫ 嘿 ♫
15:24
♫ You're okay ♫
336
909000
3000
♫ 你可以的 ♫
15:28
♫ You'll be fine ♫
337
913000
3000
♫ 你會沒事 ♫
15:31
ZF: So that's one of the better ones, really.
338
916000
2000
法蘭克：這真的是其中比較好的，
15:33
But what's awesome is, as I started getting more and more and more of them,
339
918000
3000
最棒的是，當我收到愈來愈多、愈來愈多的回覆後，
15:36
all of a sudden I had 30, 40 voices from around the world.
340
921000
3000
我發現我收到來自世界各地30到40種不同的聲音，
15:40
And when you put them together, something magical happens,
341
925000
3000
把他們放在一起之後，就會產生奇妙的事情，
15:43
something absolutely incredible happens,
342
928000
2000
真的很不可思議，
15:45
and all of a sudden I get a chorus from around the world.
343
930000
3000
就像是集合了全世界各地人聲的合唱團一樣。
15:48
And what was really great is, I'm putting all this work together in the background,
344
933000
3000
最棒的在後面，當我把大家的聲音混合在一起時，
15:51
and Laura sent me a follow-up email because a good month had passed by.
345
936000
3000
一個月過去了，蘿拉又寄了一封信來詢問進度，
15:54
And she said, "I know you've forgotten about me.
346
939000
3000
她說：「我想你大概已經忘記我了吧，
15:57
I just want to say thanks for even considering it."
347
942000
3000
我只是要謝謝你願意考慮幫助我。」
16:01
And then a few days later I sent her this.
348
946000
3000
幾天之後，我把這個寄給她：
16:06
(Audio) ♫ Right now, it feels like I forgot to turn the light on ♫
349
951000
7000
(錄音內容)♫ 此刻，我似乎忘了把燈點亮 ♫
16:14
♫ And things that looked so good yesterday ♫
350
959000
4000
♫ 昨日原本美好的一切 ♫
16:18
♫ are now shades of gray ♫
351
963000
3000
♫ 現在看來一片灰暗 ♫
16:21
♫ And it seems like the world is spinning ♫
352
966000
4000
♫ 當我站立時 ♫
16:25
♫ while I'm standing still ♫
353
970000
3000
♫ 我覺得天旋地轉 ♫
16:28
♫ Or maybe I am spinning I can't tell ♫
354
973000
5000
♫ 是我在轉吧，我不知道 ♫
16:33
♫ And then you say ♫
355
978000
2000
♫ 然後你說 ♫
16:35
♫ Hey ♫
356
980000
3000
♫ 嘿 ♫
16:38
♫ You're okay ♫

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Ze Frank - Humorist, web artistZe Frank rose to fame on a viral video -- in 2001! He has been making online comedy, web toys and massively shared experiences (like the addictive Young Me Now Me) ever since.
Why you should listen
Ever since his "How to Dance Properly" viral video -- born as a party invite for 17 friends -- hit the Web in 2001, Ze Frank has been making people giggle, guffaw and gasp out loud whilst procrastinating at work. He defines, in many ways, the genre of online comedy, and continues to innovate madly on the form.
In 2006 he launched a year-long daily video blog called The Show with Ze Frank, which Slate.com called "the best sustained comedy run in the history of the Web." His rapid-fire delivery and absurd explorations in audience participation (like Earth Sandwich) has influenced a generation of digital native YouTubers. Perhap his most brilliant move: calling on fans to write the show for him. Using collaborative tools, online viewers collectively put words in his mouth (and props in his lap); he faithfully performed this wiki-comedy each week for his "Fabuloso Friday" show.
In 2008, along with Erik Kastner, Frank launched Colowars, the first massively multiplayer game on Twitter, which featured two months of sponsored online events and competitions. Recently he has worked with his audience to create a series of projects based on shared emotions such as pain, fear and the pang of nostalgia. Frank works as a consultant to range of industries on audience engagement and is a public speaker on the subject of the virtual life.
In 2012 he returned to the internet airwaves with "A Show." About which a MetaFilter commenter wrote:
If this were a cult, I would join.
If this were a religion, I would attend services.
If this were a band, I would not torrent the albums, but buy them, full price, from a local independent record store.
If this were a telethon, I would buy multiple tote bags.
Welcome back, Ze.
