在音樂的節奏中隱藏著一個祕密，若我要透露它，它就會推翻世界。

–魯米

《指間之道》建立在藝術家的悟道體驗之上。作品由一段聲音文本出發，透過聲響帶領意識穿越維度，在過程中因為維度空間的改變，時間也隨之改變它的狀態。「指」是「意指」。在意指與意指、念頭和念頭之間，意念的發展超越了時間的限制，藝術家探索著念頭到念頭之間，可能就僅僅幾毫秒可以產生的變化和發生的一切。

“In the rhythm of music a secret is hidden; If I were to divulge it, it would overturn the world.” –RUMI.

TAO in a Moment is based on the artist’s epiphany of Tao. This work is derived from an audio context in which the audience’s consciousness is guided by the sounds to pass through different dimensions. In this journey, the status of time changes along with the transitions in dimensions.

The first character in the Chinese title, “zhi,” refers to the intention of the human being. In just a moment, shifting around from one intention to another, and wandering from one thought to another, the exploration of intention can go beyond the limit of time. The artist is in search of the mind shift of the human being and the myriads of changes that could happen in just a millisecond.

在創作的歷程上，不管是錄像或是聲音總是離不開「時間」單位，統整與反思這幾年的創作，也是建立於時間單位的生產物。2016年的春天開啟了一段新的旅程，短短幾個小時的旅程進入不同以往的頻率次元，翻轉過往的價值觀以及看待世界的方式，來自大地母親跨文化、跨時間的溫柔教導，顛覆了以往對於「時間」和「聲音」認知。

2017聲音裝置作品《請包容我，扯落你衣裾的縫線》，試圖去表現聲音有著穿越維度性質和脫離線性時間之後的可能性。而此次的作品《指間之道》承襲此脈絡，加入了「空間」和「移動感知」，並邀請舞踏舞者Tully拍攝360VR影像，藉此進一步詮釋作品概念。

Whether in my journey of creating video art or sound, I cannot help circling around “time,” the subject I cannot leave behind. Thus, I try to sort out and reflect on my creations which constantly circling around time for years. Back in the spring of 2016, I started a new passage of journey in which I entered a dimension like no other in just few hours, and my personal value and ways of seeing are therefore turned around. The mother earth’s tender guidance, transcending culture and time, overturned my perception toward “time” and “sound” from the past.

In 2017, the audio installation Bear with me, as I pluck the occasional thread from your train is intent to represent the characteristic of sound, which is able to pass through dimensions, and the potentiality of time after it dispatches from linear timescale. TAO in a Moment carries on my path in creating, further includes the subject of “space” and “moving perception,” and also invites the butoh dancer Tully in 360 VR film production to interpret the work concept.
