about

2020的上半年,我在德国进行为期近半年的驻地创作。这原本是一趟充满希望的旅程,因为新冠疫情,计划全盘打乱,随之而来是挫败丛生。
有一段时间,我的生物钟停摆了,白天在电脑前涣散消磨,夜晚精神抖擞4点前无法入睡。最后一个月,我干脆每天在剧院待到午夜,一个人,咀嚼白天的工作成果。
最后,我们的戏顺利演完了,虽然只是内部演出,但来的人不少,效果竟然不错。不过我想,当中的各种挫折与不愉快也不应该一抹而尽,一并想到的还有各种令人生气难堪不可思议的新闻。
在这段四分多钟的声音里,我刻意混淆了来自自然世界的声音(鸟鸣、风声)和数字世界的声音(数字设备声、游戏音效),再编排上日常生活录音。其中许多采样来自我和朋友们艰难而无可奈何的时刻。我们冷战,热战,又不得不彼此支持。

In the first half of 2020, I will be in Germany for nearly half a year of residency creation. This was originally a journey full of hope. Because of Covid-19, the plan was completely disrupted, and then it was frustrated.
For a while, my biological clock stopped. I spent the day in front of the computer. I was full of energy and couldn't fall asleep before 4 o'clock at night. In the last month, I simply stayed in the theater every day until midnight, alone, chewing the fruits of my work during the day.
In the end, our play was successfully performed. Although it was only an internal performance, there were a lot of people who came, and the effect turned out to be good. However, I think that all the setbacks and unpleasantness in it should not be wiped out. I also think of all kinds of angry, embarrassing and incredible news.
In this more than four-minute sound, I deliberately confuse the sounds from the natural world (birds, wind) and the digital world (digital device sounds, game sound effects), and then arrange daily recordings. Many of these samples come from difficult and helpless moments with my friends. We were in cold war, hot war, and we had to support each other.
