Description

The main concept is from a metaphor described by my friend Mr. Quincy Lun. He used staircase to present the idea of the theory of consciousness by Sigmund freud, the ego, superego and id. He used the people walking up and down on the staircase as id; Used the people crash on staircase as ego; And the handrail and notice board which avoid crash by the up and down people as Superego. I thought it was creative and while he talked about this metaphor, there are images kept appearing in my mind. And I started to think making use of my friend metaphor. Making philosophical theory to becomes a simple weird animation is my dream. It is because it can “mindfuck” people in a directly abstract transmission. For example, Famous animation created by Cool 3D world. It has the characteristic that I want to pursue in my work. I don’t know did Cool 3D world have a philosophical basis, but it indeed fucked people mind.

一條樓梯，有想下去的人，有想上去的人。想下去的人只有一個目的，便是下樓梯；想上去的人只有一個目的，便是上樓梯。上，落，這就是「本我」。

正在上樓梯的人碰到正在下樓梯的人。雙方經過碰撞丶磨合，最終慢慢自行分成兩邊，了解到達致平衡的原因及重要性。一邊上，一邊落，這就是「自我」。

一名幾經上落樓梯的人，希望能為往後上落樓梯的人造福，省去碰撞丶磨合的過程。他指引正在磨合的人群，吿訴他們「最終也是一邊上，一邊落呀」，並於樓梯上落處加上指引告示牌。從此未曾嘗試上落樓梯的人，也曉得樓梯是「一邊上，一邊落」的。「一邊上，一邊落」，這就是「超我」。

相信大家都看過，儘管樓梯標示了上落方向，總有一兩隻羊偏離羊群路線，逆眾道而行（那是因為我們是人吧）-

「本我」被「超我」壓制，並失去了形成「自我」的過程時，「本我」必然MTR 在繁忙時間可看到「超我」被「本我」、「自我」壓制的情形
