巷子裡的「台-北」味（II）： 結合「後區域地理」與「新風土地話」的幸福台北生活學

The aim of the paper is to search and re-search the “fragmented totality” of Taipei as a living city for all which is both “extra-ordinary” and “extraordinary”. The foci of analysis, accordingly, is shifted from the traditional perspective of “sight-seeing” in tourism to the prism of “life-surfing” in human geography by extending the theoretical grounds from regional and neo-regional geographies to the new frontier of post regional studies and from the terroir of places to the neo-terroir of cities. In doing so, a fieldwork strategy of “cycling detour in city lohas” which combines “life-surfing” and “street cruising” in association with the street observations of Japanese modernology is adopted to echo Ben Highmore’s theoretical framework of aesthetics, archives, and practice/critique so as to highlight the spatial ethnography of urban dynamics in daily Taipei. Hopefully, the preliminary findings of this paper will provide some useful clues about the pursuit of a living city for happy all.
