This project seeks to set up a museum to introduce and demonstrate future holy pig culture. We posit a science fiction scenario in which, after the year 2080, there will exist numerous parallel worlds. Owing to different outcomes to the African swine fever outbreak, the holy pig culture in each of these parallel worlds will evolve into different faith narratives. Just as 100 years ago the colonial economy and agricultural policies of Japanese rule produced a massive influence on holy pig culture, the numerous different particular cases in different parallel worlds will open up a diversity of future holy pig cultures. Through the form of a museum, changes to holy pig culture from each parallel world are condensed into every kind of imaginary object and image, and presented in this imaginary museum.

Through the introduction of partial objects and fragmented narratives, the audience is led to piece together how the intervention of different factors may transform future religious culture. We hope that through these works the audience may reflect and explore how religiousness can be practiced in these different ways, if technology will become a help or a hindrance, and from these cases what insights we may glean into handed-down myths and taboos -- even a relationship between people, pigs and supernatural beings.

        本計畫試圖建立一個介紹與展示未來神豬文化的博物館。我們設定了一個科幻情境,在2080年後將會存在數個 「平行世界」,每個平行世界內的神豬文化都將因為非洲豬瘟的不同結局,而各自演化出不同神豬信仰的故事線。如同一百年前日治時期的殖民經濟與農業政策對神豬文化產生的巨大影響,不同設定的數個特殊事件在不同平行世界中,將打開未來神豬文化的多樣性。

        透過博物館的形式,把每個平行世界中神豬文化的變化,凝鍊成各種想像的物件、影像,呈列於這個想像的博物館中。透過部份物件與片段敘事的介紹,引導觀眾拼湊出未來宗教文化在不同因素的介入下,可以有怎麼樣的轉化。希望觀眾可以透過作品,反思與探索宗教性如何在這些不同的方法中實踐?科技在其中將成為助力或阻力?以及如何從這些事件中窺視流傳的神話與禁忌,甚至是人、豬和鬼神之間的關係。
