The South-Wanhua Private Madline was realized by organizing workshops with school classes in the Wanhua District of Taipei. I was hoping to learn more about the student’s daily experience in that part of the city. I did that by inviting non-local visitors to explore the cultural heritage sites of the given district with a tour guide and a customized Madline device.
By asking local children to draw a map of their way to school and letting them point out places that mattered to them, I wanted to raise the question of how we evaluate sites and locations, how experiences gain relevancy as soon as they’re validated using any means of documentation.

以工作坊形式進行去探討南萬華，分別以大人與小孩作為對象來進行遊走並拼湊南萬華的私房馳線。小孩部分是由萬大國小的小學生製作自己獨特的馳線裝置，從學校出發各自回家的路線圖。另外一個部分則是邀請導覽講師帶領大人們行經南萬華地區，文化導覽結合馳線裝置。
工作坊的孩子們繪製他們上學路線的地圖，並讓他們指出對他們來說很重要的地方。如何評估與決定地點的重要性，以任何文件形式的手段驗證身體的經驗。
文化導覽配合馳線裝置，讓參與者攜帶行走聽聽南萬華的導覽。 與此同時，馳線裝置在展場會上化身為文創商品，讓觀者人購買並體驗裝置裡指定的私房景點。
