The Air Defense Identification Map

This is a map mounted on the wall on the second floor of the oldest building in the Air Force Command Headquarters, the former Governor-General’s Industrial Research Institute as a remnant after the Air Force Command Headquarters was relocated in 2013. The map is the navigation route map of the Taiwan flight areas dedicated to fighter pilots. It is superscripted by the Taiwan Province Air Defense Identification Zone. The square frames and the round frames of the island are all target areas. The four box target areas in the South China Sea have changed due to changes in time and space, so they are no longer used. At that time, all the fighter pilots were all armed with a flight map which they placed in their leg pockets and this map was originally classified as secret.

About

Cultural experimentation anticipates a disobedient attitude that facilitates cultural reversion and creative collision. When experiments become an attitude, a wide spectrum of cultural initiatives and fresh paths will unfold and extend like water, shock, sonic, light, or electric waves.

C-LAB hopes to showcase the cultures of contemporary creators, makers, sharers and participants to nurture a fresh ecology of cultural creation, which emerges as a cloud sharing platform for all contemporary readers, utilizing humanistic digital technologies while incorporating contemporary art perspectives as well as cultural observation to introduce innovation into society through culture.

CLABO, an online journal published by C-LAB, aims to create confluences of cultural creators and serve as a community platform for all partners of cultural experiment projects. With unprecedented cultural experiments, we have started bravely venturing into the future!
