Introduction

Only when the history, the people's life and the contemporary meanings are sincerely responded does the Sixth Fuel Factory get the value for its very existence

"The Sixth Fuel Documenta is not so much for studying the Sixth Fuel Factory as for understanding how meanings disappear and are reconstructed in the passing time and for how we remember, govern and construct the Sixth Fuel Factory."—— Wen-Shu LAI

"The Sixth Fuel Factory in Motion" not only offers the imagination of "the Museum in Motion" but also the motif of The Sixth Fuel Documenta 2022. Motion is not so much the breaking of fixed points as the transposition of selves beyond the frames. It is the shift of cognition, thought, and paradigm, as well as the advance of history, action, and discourse. The Documenta features four sections: the good-neighboring Sixth Fuel Factory, the towering Sixth Fuel Factory, the mobile Sixth Fuel Factory, and a decentralized museum. It discusses six kinds of movement including the sustainable life, local texture, cultural heritage interpretation, governance strategy, historical writing and museum paradigm to ponder the possibility of the Sixth Fuel Factory as a decentralized and distributed museum. The Documenta attempts to progressively establish a localogical knowledge system and a living museum framework for the Sixth Fuel Factory by means of transdisciplinary artistic praxis, sustainable life design, smart technology-based conservation, field trip and flâneuring, localogical lectures on the Sixth Fuel Factory and museum workshops. By clarifying the context of the culture and history of the Sixth Fuel Factory, the contemporary value and position of the Sixth Fuel Factory as the WWII industrial remains will be exposed. When the Japanese Navy's Sixth Fuel Factory and the high-tech industry in Taiwan are connected, the umbilical cord relationship will be revealed. The lives, beings and the produced new meanings under the global context will shine.The Sixth Fuel Factory will be given the cultural path and dynamic system of Living Metaphor﹒Living Museum.
