《时间规划局》的故事情节是以“时间是金钱”概念隐喻为基础的。通过该隐喻,时间可以像金钱一样花费、节省、浪费。但《时间规划局》对“时间是金钱”这一基本概念隐喻进行了拓展,充分发掘和利用金钱概念中没被映射到时间概念上的方面,从而产生非规约概念隐喻,如时间可以储存、购买、偷窃、抢劫、赠予等。这正是影片艺术性所在。 The plot of Time Planning Agency is based on a conceptual metaphor of time is money. Through this metaphor, time can be spent like money, save, waste. However, the “Time Planning Bureau” has expanded the basic concept metaphor of “time is money” to fully explore and make use of aspects of the concept of money that are not mapped to the concept of time, resulting in conceptual metaphors of non-conventions such as time can be Store, buy, steal, robbery, give, etc. This is where the art of video is.
