时间/无间 Time Based, Non-Places
基于时间的艺术是特指电影、录像、动画等，依照单一视频图像组成序列，并按照时间的单一流向发展的艺术。在时间中，或在之间，是基于视频图像在数字媒体之后出现的可逆或可任意抽取组合的现场特征，这一特征试图讨论虚拟空间的间性，以及虚拟与现实空间的关联。此主题与探索方向将通过基于时间讨论空间呈现的体验，再次深入。并通过整合国际领域重要探索的艺术家和项目，完成对全球基于数字图像的扫描。而整合电影、录像、动画这些形式，完全置于空间的体验中，是对传统媒介基于上述媒介概念的延展，是指向现在如何思考这些媒介所关联的传统、乡愁和现代性的缅怀。
第三届深圳独立动画双年展即将于2016年12月3日在深圳华侨城创意文化园正式开幕。第三届深圳独立动画双年展共有5个主要组成部分：“空间中的动画”、“特别放映”、“动画与音乐会”、“推荐展映”和“讲与谈”。
Time-Based Art refers to film, video and animation, which form sequence using single screen image and flow in one single time-based direction. The issues of within time and in between time arise after the introduction of digital media in which time can be reversed or a particular period can be selected randomly and merged with other spots of time. This on site feature attempts to discuss the intersubjectivity of virtual space as well as the correlation between virtual and physical space. With this theme in mind, the Biennale will seek to address of the time-based experience of spatial presentation. By gathering projects from internationally renowned artists, the Biennale will try to compile a global collection of digital images. Through consolidating films, videos and animations into a specific spatial experience, this can be seen as an extension of the traditional media based on the aforementioned new media. This also suggests how we should reflect on the reminiscence of these related traditions, nostalgia and modernity.
Opening at OCT LOFT in Shenzhen on December 3rd 2016, the 3rd Shenzhen Independent Animation Biennale will consist of five main components: Animation in Space, Special Screening, Live Animation, Nominated New Works as well as Talk & Symposium.
空间中的动画 Animation in Space
空间中的动画，特展出动画（Moving Images）多维度概念于空间，从动画的初期概念分解出不同方向与线索，如算法动画，利用软件和计算模式生成的方式，不断衍生出动画的有机体。如动画和空间绘画、装置、灯光交互的，将内在空间与外部空间模糊的方式。如GIF动画所呈现的当下文化特征，及其基于简单图像逐格方式呈现的基于社群网络的方式。如关于生存、地缘等方面，深具想象力的动画预言，都是这个特别项目试图完成的方向。
Animation in Space strives to reveal the multi-dimensional concept of moving images in space. From the initial concept of animation, one can deduce various traces and clues such as algorithm animation, an organism that generates animation continuously through the use of software and computing methods. Another form of presentation can be the fusion of animation with space painting, installation, the use of lighting to create blurry internal and external space. One can also see the contemporary culture features presented by GIF animation as well as its simple images of single frame presentation that is rooted from the social network. Last but not least, this program hopes to attract works that are about survival, regional backgrounds or parables that are highly imaginative.
特别放映 Special Screening
放映项目是基于单屏幕这一概念，思考动画和电影、影像，在同一观影经验和环境中。放映项目在这五年来成为一种普遍的从艺术到电影的逆向经验，影像和艺术作品逐渐构成了一个新的关于电影体验的关系，如邱黯雄、杨福东、高世强、孙逊等，对电影的理解也得到的拓展。而艺术家借助游戏、动画、设计、MV，所呈现出的试验性和探索，也是电影制片系统无法比拟的。
Based on the concept of the use of single screen, the Special Screening program aims to reflect on the nature of animation in the same viewing experience and environment of cinema and moving image. Over the past five years, animation screening has become a popular practice of reverse experience — from art to cinema, moving image and artistic productions have gradually built a new way to experience cinema. Artists such as Qiu Anxiong, Yang Fudong, Gao Shiqiang and Sun Xun have expanded their understanding of cinema. Through the use of video gaming, animation, design and music video, artists are able to experiment and to explore a great deal with their artworks. That level of experimentation and exploration are hard to find in the mainstream movie production system.
动画与音乐 Live Animation
动画与音乐，是一个特殊的领域，是音视频艺术，也是现场动画即兴艺术的领域，这一领域汇集了大量的全面的人才，更强调现场直接与公众互动的特征，从数字、实物、光影出发，将音乐融合其间。动画与音乐，如同爵士乐之即兴，如同老电影之现场配乐，如同电子舞曲之于年轻人的聚乐部。
Combining animation with music creates a unique field, an audiovisual art and an impromptu art form of interactive animation. This field is filled with many talented individuals and places its emphasis over the on-site interaction with the audience, starting with digital medium, physical objects, lighting and integrating seamlessly with music. The fusion of animation and music is similar to an impromptu jazz performance, the live score played in old films and trance music played in clubs where young people mingle.

讲与谈 Talk & Symposium
讲与谈主要是参与的艺术家、策展人和团体，就动画的具体情况讨论，如女性主义在动画中的表达形式，动画和游戏、动画和音乐、动画和水墨传统等等，以及涉及到动画产业和独立创作的具体现实之沟通，讲与谈希望更深度的从创作者、策展人和具体的规则制定者的对谈中，发现独立之精神。另，科技发展带来的关于动画的变迁，即是时间上的，也是空间上的。讲与谈希望是对过去的一次回望和探索，希望理清关于知识和思想输出，所可能呈现的对未来现实之影响。
Talk & Symposium is a forum for all the participating artists, curators and groups to discuss specific issues related to animation such as the means of representation of feminism in animation, the relationship between animation and video gaming, the relationship between animation and music as well as the relationship between animation and the tradition of ink wash painting. It also seeks to build a discourse on the nature of the animation industry and the nature of independent animation production. Talk & Symposium strives to initiate in-depth dialogue between artists, curators and specific rule makers in order to discover independent spirits. Also, the development of technology has brought numerous changes to animation both in terms of time and of space. Through this retrospect at animation, Talk & Symposium hopes to make sense of the knowledge and ideas involved and their potential impact on the future of animation.
