A video that resembles a karaoke video with lyrics of a hymn Home of our youth, backed by mixed ambiences, computer drawn silhouette of a male, and then the cityscape of Hong Kong. Overlapping frames and superimposed images of the Hong Kong cityscape, a burning flame, bystanding males and railway are seen at the second half of the video.

《融•耐》是《四搭十二》的第一輯作品,探討「吃」與「慾」的過中的精神壓力。在作品中我們會見到視覺上語意上的溶化畫面。唯一的認知和慾望在於消化影像及聲音時所吸取到的物質和快感。《融 •耐》開創另一處理重複性的溪徑,並在生理需要及感情之間創建了溝通的經絡。
