A Place in Time
莫宇一方2

Due to the impact of digital CTP(computer-to-plate) production process, some traditional offset printing production companies chose to their end. With more than 20 years in service, Ou-Shih Production, a small production company located at the old district of Wanhua, Taipei, is no exception. On 08.08.2008, the company asked us to check the inventory of all films stored at the company, in order to move them to the receiving company. It's really nostalgic to see all the old stuff of our company, however, it's also sad to see it close. It will definitely be a mark of the the shift of the analog and digital era.

2008年8月8日，原本應是個極其幸運的日子，但我在這天，見證到一家傳統製版廠的殞落。擁有20年歷史，這家位於台北市萬華區的小型製版廠，由於未能跟隨數位化的潮流，業務直直落，再加上景氣不佳，客戶要求降價，考量到不符成本，因此選擇歇業。花了一整天，清點、整理這些陳年的網片，除了懷舊的氣氛，還多了些不捨。
