The name "Ordinal" is deeply inspired by the mathematical concept of ordinals, which describes the unique and ordered position of each element within a set. This naming not only symbolizes digital progression—such as the leap through natural numbers (1, 2, 3…) and the binary language (0 and 1)—but also metaphorically represents the accumulation and connection of creativity.

 

Through the name "Ordinal," we aim to showcase our company's approach to image creation: on one hand, pursuing innovation in technology and form, and on the other, deeply exploring and expressing the multifaceted dimensions of humanity and intellect. This approach is not only a response to the digital age but also a tribute to the human spirit, striving towards enduring values in a rapidly changing media environment.

 

Additionally, the name "Ordinal" originates from the Latin term for "prayer book," symbolizing the monks' pursuit of perfect unity between form and content during prayers, which is also our goal. The initial letter "O" in the name draws from the biblical phrase "I am Alpha and Omega," signifying the power of creation and inclusiveness from the beginning to the end. This seemingly contradictory yet harmonious combination is precisely what Ordinal Image strives to represent in every piece of work.

 

At Ordinal co. Ltd., we believe contemporary humanity lives in a "digital age primitive settlement", necessitating a meta perspective in viewing and depicting everything. We are therefore committed to exploring and depicting the Lascaux cave paintings of our era, recording and expressing the unique perspectives and deep human explorations of our time.

 

From the leap from 0 to 1, from nothing to something, Ordinal co. Ltd.'s philosophy stems from reverence for the multi-generational collaboration of the Lascaux cave paintings. We aim to transform these trans-generational image memories into a new reality that reshapes perception. The company focuses on the development and production of visual themes, including movies, documentaries, visual arts, and television series. Based in Taiwan, we delve deep into content themes and formal elements that enrich international culture.
