核心畫面

Picture a cover being lifted off. Two things happen at once: what was underneath can now be seen, and it can now be reached by whatever is out there — cold, sunlight, , cameras, risk. Every use of exposure is one of those two halves. Sometimes the story is about being seen; sometimes it is about having nothing between you and the world.

可以想成:一塊蓋子被掀開了。同一個動作帶來兩件事——底下的東西從此看得見了,而且從此也擋不住外面的東西:冷空氣、陽光更多收起可以想成:一塊蓋子被掀開了。同一個動作帶來兩件事——底下的東西從此看得見了,而且從此也擋不住外面的東西:冷空氣、陽光、病菌、鏡頭、風險,全都直接碰得到。exposure 的每一個意思都落在這兩半裡的一半:有時故事在講「被看見」,有時在講「中間沒有東西擋著」。分清楚是哪一半,這個字就不會亂。

中間沒東西擋著

掀開蓋子的另一半後果:外面的東西可以直接碰到你。碰到的是毒是冷是風險,就決定了這個字聽起來好不好。
