On May 27 and 28, the Department of Information and Communication held an end-of-semester exhibition. The exhibition showcased the hard work of 27 second year students, who formed groups and filmed an extended documentary called “No Ice”. No Ice consists of three separate themes: “sticky memories”, “the recollection of a port”, and “the year we built Tamsui”. The documentary provides an in-depth look into the culture and history of Tamsui, and how this cultural heritage has shaped the Tamsui we know today.

The documentary, which was the students’ final assignment for the course “Storytelling and Storyboarding”, was screened at the Tamsui Cultural Park. The film incorporates several settings, including the Tamsui Shell Warehouse, a port, an airport, and railway tracks”. Chen Yu-hsuan, the organizer of the exhibition, said: “Tamsui’s culture has always been very open to outside cultures. The purpose of this event is to get rid of people’s apathy toward history. We hope to stimulate people’s interest in the local history, art, and culture”.
