hello, goodbye, dragon inn

this labyrinth was created as the final project for the Games & Adaptations class at boshi's. it is 3.5GB in size -- because of the movie clips contained : )) I personally think it is only worth it if you are interested in Tsai Min-liang's works or want to try to watch a movie in a labyrinth setting :D to play _click_ and find things in the labyrinth; watch _Goodbye, Dragon Inn_ here; _flame_ means a dead end; click "Replay" to start over. about This interactive adaptation is based on _Goodbye, Dragon Inn_, a film by Taiwanese-Malaysian director Tsai Ming-liang. For the last two years I've been going to movies quite a lot in this city. You have probably been to these places too – Metrograph, Roxy, Spectacle, Angelika… The frequent showing of films from my childhood fascinates me, for how the audience views it today is completely removed from the original setting. They became cool vintage cultural artifacts dug up for nostalgia spectating. When I first watched them it was a different kind of spectating. _Goodbye, Dragon Inn_ was about that deep crack between then and now, a movie about a movie being played in a cinema, its fragments across time and space pieced together in a single labyrinth. I thought it would be interesting if I reconstruct my experience into a labyrinth, too, about watching _Goodbye, Dragon Inn_ here in this city. This project is not completely finished. There are 86 shots in _Goodbye, Dragon Inn_, and I only got to around 70 of them. I didn't quite take the time to capture how it feels to go to the cinema for these older works -- which was the premise of the work. It doesn't have any nice-to-have animations or effects. Would be nice to read more, too :) Xia Aug 7, 2025 references Goodbye, Dragon Inn (2003), Tsai Ming-liang Flame video (2024), olenchic, https://pixabay.com/videos/fire-flame-burn-hot-koster-sparks-219971/ copyright disclaimer This project contains brief excerpts from Goodbye, Dragon Inn (2003) used for non-commercial, educational purposes as part of a student work; all rights remain with the original copyright holders.
