跨越時空的重逢：臺灣民主的起點與未來
1990年代的台灣，一場日後被稱之為「寧靜革命」的民主行動，在總統李登輝的領導下悄悄發生。臺灣人的思想、自由、人權束縛在沒有發生流血衝突的過程中解除，成功完成民主轉型。
時至今日，李前總統逝世五週年，李登輝基金會協同資策會，以生成式 AI 與現代技術模擬這位「民主先生」的容貌與聲音，讓臺灣第一位民選總統穿越時空來到現代，與當代觀眾開啟一場以民主為題的對話和思辨，傳承民主的火炬。
主視覺設計以不同時期的李登輝影像重組、拼貼，呼應「Prototype」的展覽命名，以數位科技重構民主先生的形象，打破時間的藩籬，讓現代思想遇上民主的起點，使觀眾重新審視歷史的軌跡與未來的想像。
臺灣的未來仍舊面臨許多挑戰，然而越是風雨飄搖的年代，越是需要島民一心，堅守信念，將遞至手上的民主之火藉由對話、閱讀、記錄，小心翼翼地延續下去。
In the 1990s, under President Lee Teng-hui’s leadership, Taiwan quietly underwent a democratic movement later known as the “The Quiet Revolution.” Without bloodshed, the people of Taiwan broke free from restrictions on thought, freedom, and human rights, successfully transitioning to democracy.
Now, on the fifth anniversary of President Lee’s passing, the Lee Teng-hui Foundation and Institute for Information Industry have used generative AI and modern technology to recreate the image and voice of “Mr. Democracy.” Taiwan’s first elected president returns to the present to engage the public in a dialogue on democracy and its legacy.
The main visual design reassembles and collages images of Lee Teng-hui from different periods. Echoing the exhibition title “Prototype,” it uses digital technology to reconstruct the image of Mr. Democracy, breaking the boundaries of time so that modern thought meets the origins of democracy, inviting viewers to reexamine the trajectory of history and imagine the future.
Though Taiwan still faces many challenges, in uncertain times, it is even more vital for its people to stay united, hold fast to democratic values, and carefully pass on the torch of democracy through dialogue, reading, and remembrance.
