人机原初体验 Human Machine Intercourse Last Night: Notes by Qin Dao

我尝试把中国私人影像的开端始于对VHS/家用录像带的翻录，而非用某款摄像机所进行的拍摄。它始于“私人拥有”， 而非拍摄保存关于私人的运动影像。

I try to think of the beginning of private video in China as beginning with the ripping/recording of VHS/home video tapes, rather than the shooting with a particular camera. It started with "private ownership" rather than presenting and owning images about private people. 

关于家庭录像机的录制功能在中国使用，被当作中国私人影像的缘起，再到家用录像带的消亡到抖音的兴起。
