1.So, 120 years ago Doctor R?ntgen X-rayed his wife’s hand.
在120年前 伦琴医生给他妻子的手拍摄了X光照片。
2.Quite why he had to pin her fingers to the floor with her brooch, I’m not sure. It seems a bit extreme to me.
只是,为什么他要用胸针把他妻子的手指钉在地上 对此我很不解。这对我来说有点不可思议。
3.That image was the start of the X-ray technology.
但这张照片确实是X射线技术的开端
4.And I’m still fundamentally using the same principles today.

5.I’m interpreting it in a more contemporary manner.
但是我用的是一种比较现代的表达方式
6.The first shot I ever did was of a soda can which was to promote a brand that we all know, so I’m not going to do them any favors by showing you it.
我拍摄的第一张照片 是一个汽水罐,用来为大家都熟悉的一个牌子做广告 所以我不打算给你们展示那张照片,免得再次为他们做广告
7.But the second shot I did was my shoes I was wearing on the day.
我拍摄的第二张照片是我今天穿的这双鞋子
8.And I do really like this shot, because it shows all the detritus that’s sort of embedded in the sole of the sneakers.
我非常喜欢这张照片,因为 从照片上能看到所有 嵌在鞋底上的碎石

11.And the bus is full of people.

12.It’s actually the same person. It’s just one skeleton.

13.And back in the ’60s they used to teach student radiographers to take X-rays, thankfully not on you and I, but on dead people.
让我们把目光倒回上世纪60年代 人们以前培训X光照相师 拍摄X光照片,但幸好不是给我们拍 而是拍摄死人
14.So, I’ve still got access to one of these dead people called Frieda; she’s falling apart, I’m afraid, because she’s very old and fragile.
现在,我们仍然能够拍摄到当年的那些死人之一 她的名字叫Frieda。我担心她一直在腐化 因为她已经非常老了,而且还很脆弱
15.But everyone on that bus is Frieda.

16.And the bus is taken with a cargo-scanning X-ray, which is the sort of machine you have on borders, which checks for contraband and drugs and bombs and things.
这张公交车的照片是由X光货物扫描仪器拍摄的 就是我们在边境关口看到的那种机器 用来检查走私品,毒品和爆炸物之类的东西

19.Technology is moving ahead And these large cargo scanner X-rays that work with the digital system are getting better and better and better.
科技在不断进步 这些大的X光货物扫描仪器 以及其中的数字系统正在变得越来越好
20.Again though, to make it come alive you need, somehow, to add the human element.
然而,要把它变得有趣一点 你需要加入一些人的因素
21.And I think the reason this image works, again, is because Frieda is driving the bulldozer.
我认为这张图片成功的原因在于 Frieda在驾驶这台推土机

(笑声) 这是个相当困难的事 让一条男士裤子看起来漂亮
23.But I think the process, in itself, shows how exquisite they are.

24.Fashion, now I’m sort of anti-fashion because I don’t show the surface, I show what’s within.
时尚,我现在是个反时尚者,因为我 不展现事物的表面,而是事物的内部
25.So, the fashionistas don’t really like me because It doesn’t matter if Kate Moss is wearing it or if I’m wearing it, it looks the same.
所以,时尚人士一定不喜欢我 因为不论是Kate Moss或是我穿着时装 看起来都是一样的
26.(Laughter) We all look the same inside, believe me.
