ꕥ 展覽介紹

 

在日常生活環境中,存在著一些看似合理與理所當然的現象,這些現象因為我們已經習以為常,因此也常被忽略,尤其是身處在資訊充滿的世界之中,面對大量影音的刺激與訊息的衝擊,我們的感官是否還能維持最初那動物性的敏銳度?或是已經退化,需要藉由科技性的義肢來放大?

 

在開始從事聲音創作後,我會開始注意周遭環境的風吹草動,對聲音逐漸敏銳。我想這並不是天生或短期間內就能如此,而是後天的訓練和培養,就像我們小時候練習寫字一樣,經過訓練,耳朵就會變得比較”開”,對細微聲響更加敏銳。

 

但就算再敏銳,一些非常細微的聲音還是非常難清楚的完全接收,因此透過科技的輔具的幫助下,我們得以一窺其中究竟,甚至達到出乎我們想像的感官體驗,例如超指向性麥克風或是超音波指向性喇叭,這些科技的工具完全顛覆了我們對感官的想像,我並不特別排斥或讚揚使用這些科技下的輔助工具,我所感興趣的是其對感官所產生與帶來的有趣現象或體驗,特別是物理性的變化。

 

聲音相較於視覺,是非常抽象的,伸手感覺不到,眼睛也無法看到它。它透過空氣震動傳導, 形成聽覺,除了偵測音量的分貝計,或是經由電子儀器、數位化後的聲音,我們自身的感官系統很難用一個絕對的計量、單位或是數值去表現或描述,因此當聲音在空間傳播時,可以說是以一種非常純粹的物理性運動著,在這樣的狀態下,聲音在空間中的方向性、速度或變化,我們無法精準絕對的描述與計量,因此一切都僅止於相對性。

本次展覽所展出的三件作品,皆涉及探討與呈現聲音、空間與環境變化下的相對關係、變化以及現象,希望能讓觀者透過親身的體驗去感受聲音所特有的魅力。

 

ꕥ Exhibition Introduction

In our daily lives and environment, seemingly obvious and natural phenomena are overlooked because we are accustomed to them. This is especially so in the media-enriched world of today. With the large quantities of images and information that we face, are our senses able to maintain the animal like sensitivity that it once had? Or has it degenerated so that it is necessary to rely on technology to help amplify these dulled senses.

 

Since I began to create the audio piece, I started to notice sounds in my surroundings and became more sensitive to sound. I don’t think that this comes naturally or that it can be accomplished in a short period of time. Instead it requires training and nurturing—like learning to write as children. Only then would the ear be more “open” and able to pick up faint sounds.

 

Unfortunately despite how sensitive one may be, some faint subtle sounds are difficult to catch. However, with the help of technology and other equipments like the super directional microphone or ultrasonic speakers, we are able to understand and even achieve some surprising sensory experiences, completely alter our understanding of our senses. I am not especially against or for using these technological equipments, but instead interested in the phenomena or experience that it brings to our senses, especially in physical changes.

 

Compared to visuals, sound is much more abstract—it cannot be touched with our hands nor seen with our eyes. It passes through air and vibrates, transmits and forms our sense of hearing. Without sound detection devices like the decibel meter, electronic equipment or digitalizing sound, the human body cannot measure sound nor describe it using units or numbers. Thus when sound is traveling through space, it can be described as a very simple and physical motion. Under these circumstances, sound moving through space is relative because we cannot precisely calculate it due to its change in speed and the direction it is traveling in.

 

There are three pieces in this exhibition, each exploring and expressing sound, space, and their relations, changes, and phenomenon. Hopefully those who visit this exhibition will able to experience the charm that is unique to sound.

「訊號 • 流」2.0

形式:聲音裝置

年份:2011

長度:隨機循環 Loop

媒材:複合媒材

 

「訊號 • 流」2.0 是一件結合聲音、光與視覺的裝置,有 104 顆喇叭、104顆傳統圓鎢絲燈泡構成的二維矩陣,呈一立體流線形體包覆散佈在空間中,裝置裡的每個單位包含一顆喇叭,一個燈泡,每一組的燈泡與喇叭的控制都是同步的,意即喇叭的音量大小是跟隨其燈泡亮度所變化,燈泡越亮,聲音越大。聲音的內容透過電腦程式即時運算產生,經由電腦的作業系統監測硬碟讀寫的使用情況和電腦內部的溫度,產生持續的變數和數值資料,由客製化的電腦程式即時運算成噪音或擬生物聲響,將電腦內部的訊號數值轉換成聲響與光。透過電腦軟體的控制,可以分別獨立控制104 顆燈泡的明暗和104 顆喇叭音量的大小,在電腦程式控制下,於空間中以一種流動、蔓延和有機的散撥方式傳遞的聲音與光,時而看似立體圖形,時而看似有聲命的發光體,觀者在這件裝置中可以體驗聲音在三維空間中的流動與變化,以及聲音同步視覺化的呈現。

 

Signal‧Flow 2.0

Form: Sound installation

Year: 2011

Length: Loop

Media: Mix media

 

“Signal.Flow”2.0 is an installation made with a combination of sound, light and visuals. Its 104 speakers and 104 incandescent light bulbs form a two dimensional matrix that creates a three-dimensional streamline body that is dispersed through the space. Each unit of installation is composed of one speaker and a light bulb. The control of the unit is synchronized so that the brightness of the bulb alters the volume of the speaker—the brighter the bulb is, the louder the speaker is. The content of sound is generated from program’s real-time computing. Through operating system monitors hard disk access’ status and inner temperature, computer produces continuous variables, values, and data. A customized computer program produces noise or biological sounds and converts the computer’s internal signal into sound and light. Through this program, 104 light bulbs and 104 speakers can be independently controlled. With this control and the flow in space, sound and light is organically dispersed, sometimes creating an illusion of three-dimensional images, sometimes creating glowing objects with sound and life. In this installation, the viewer can experience sound flowing and altering in three dimensional space, as well as visuals that are synchronized with the sound.

「相對性 +/- 」RAW
形式:聲音裝置
年份:2011
長度:17分鐘循環
媒材:不鏽鋼,鐵,心型指向麥克風,電加熱器,電腦

 

日常生活中所發生的細微變化,經常不易察覺,也許可以,但我們的感官很難用絕對的數值或量化去做描述。在東京駐村期間,注意到冬季因熱脹冷縮而產生細微聲響的鋁製窗框,這些膨脹與收縮的活動,就發生在細微的溫度變化時,我們的皮膚可以感知溫度的差異,但無法絕對的分辨精準細微的變化,因此對身體而言,這些細微的變化都是相對下的感覺與差異。

 

透過特製的加熱裝置,內部的特殊結構在溫度的變化下,彼此間些微的伸縮,如呼吸般的韻律,在看似平靜的裝置外觀,卻暗藏著細膩活躍的聲響,靜靜發聲。「相對性 +/- 」RAW有兩個金屬加熱裝置,其中一個金屬裝置將會切割開,透過剖面,呈現原始內部結構和狀態,包含加熱到發紅的電熱裝置,另一個則維持原貌,讓觀者直接看見其內部的加熱與冷卻過程所產生的視覺與聽覺變化,裝置加熱與冷卻的循環時間為17分鐘,當一個裝置在加熱時,另一個就在冷卻,現場兩支麥克風分別收兩個金屬裝置加熱冷卻過程的聲響,透過耳機,一左一右聲道,呈現兩邊相對的聽覺。兩個螢幕的內容分別是這兩個裝置在錄音室裡紀錄的低躁版聲音和影像。

 

Relativity +/-RAW

Form: Sound installation
Year: 2011
Length: 17 minutes loop
Media: Stainless steel, iron, cardioid microphone, electric heater, computer

 

The slight changes in our daily lives are hard to detect; perhaps it is doable, but it is difficult for our senses to describe precisely these changes using numerical and quantitative data. During the residency period in Tokyo, Chang Yung-Ta noticed that aluminum windows created a minute sounds due to its shrinking and expanding in winter. When these shrinking and expanding happen because of the subtle temperature change, our skin is a great detector of the difference but it is unable to differentiate precise and subtle changes—it can only be compared to one another.

 

With a special heating device, the internal special structure undergoes a slight change of temperature, causes a contraction and breathing like rhythm. Under the relatively calm exterior, a faint delicate sound pulsates. “Relatively +/-“ Raw has two metal heating devices, with one of these heating devices cut open to show the internal structure and state, including the glowing red hot electric system. The other heating device keeps its original form, letting the audience directly see the heating and cooling as well as the changes is sound due to this change of temperature. The heating device heats and cools with a loop of 17 minutes. When one of these heating devices heats up, the other cools down. Two microphones, each recording the sound of a heating device separately, stream the two sets of sound into a pair of earphones so that the left ear and right ear are playing contrary sounds. Two monitors display sounds and images of each heating devices that recording in a studio room separately.

「Y現象-四聲道版」ver. 2

形式:聲音-影像空間裝置

年份:2011

長度:8’38” 循環

媒材:電腦、喇叭、電腦軟體生成影像

 

點狀顆粒化的聲響,遊走於密集與分解之間,在空間游離蔓延; 與聲響同步的點狀視覺,在空間中與聲響彼此衝撞,穿越身體。 -張永達 身處在充滿複製、再現的世界,人們已過度慣於相信眼前所見所聽所聞,原本是什麼似乎已不再那麼重要。生活中充斥著各種聲響:噪音、環境音、人聲等, 將這些聲音紀錄下來,做的並不是環境聲響,也不是具象音樂,而是想試驗環境聲響藉由噪音再現的可能性。

 

「Y現象」為一件系列聲響作品。「Y」為日本地名Yamaguchi(山口)的縮寫,此作品為創作者於2008年赴日本山口情報藝術中心實習時,所收集當地日常生活聲響的錄音,包含自然環境聲響、人造聲響、交通噪音、電視節目等音源。經由數位調變和重新編曲,聲音被顆粒化重新編排,切分成細小粒子,遊走於空間中,去除再現與原本的關連性和暗示性,重新建構出一個虛擬的聽覺場域,透過2011年新版本四聲道的聲音呈現和半環形的高畫質影像,觀者可在空間中感受聲音與視覺在空間中的流竄與變化。

 

延續其聲音創作的探索本質,結合對資訊世代影音滿載現象的獨特觀點,創作者融合創作中一貫的低調冷冽視覺風格,以大膽卻細膩的聲響變化與分子顆粒狀態的動態視覺,於空間場域中互相碰撞、流竄,塑造出另類的感官迴圈。 以聲音粒子為電流,抽象動態光覺為導體,在這個獨特的環型場域中震盪出一種純粹的光音波動景觀,觀者將重新體驗聲音粒子與光束流穿越身體的快感,在看見與聽見之間穿梭。

 

YPhenomenon-Quadraphonic ver.2

Form: Sound video installation

Year: 2011 Length: 8’38” loop

Media: Computer, speaker, computer generated images

 

“Granulated sounds, sometimes concentrated, sometimes diffused spread through the space. Grainy images accompany and collide with the sounds, moving through your body.” – Chang Yung-Ta Living in a world full of reproductions and representations, Chang Yung-Ta thinks people have become too accustomed to believing in the authenticity of everything they see and hear, and the original version of these images and sounds seems to be no longer important. Our everyday lives are filled with all kinds of sounds: noise, ambient sounds, people speaking and other sounds, and Chang records them all, not to create musique concrete or ambient soundscapes, but rather to experiment with ambient sounds and explore the possibilities of noise reproduction.

 

Y Phenomenon is a series of sound-art pieces. The “Y” stands for the city of Yamaguchi in Japan. While the sound artist Chang Yung-Ta was participating in an internship at the Yamaguchi Center for Arts and Media, he collected the sounds of Japanese life, such as those from nature, those made by people, and traffic and television program sounds. Chang then granulated and rearranged the sounds using digital modulation techniques making each segment of sound into a tiny granule, which travels through the exhibition venue. With the new 2011 version of quadraphonic sounds and semicircular images, the viewer can experience the change in sound and visuals in space.

 

Chang Yung-Ta has consistently used a low-key, restrained visual style to extend the exploratory quality of his sound art productions and present his unique view of sound-image overload in the information age. Bold yet delicate sound variations are combined with granulated and dynamic visual elements, which drift and collide in the circular, 360 degree surrounding venue, forming an alternative sensory panorama. Using sound particles as electrical current, and the perception of abstract shifting light as a conductor, Chang creates pure landscapes of visual and aural fluctuations in this unique circular space. Viewers will enjoy the sensation of being immersed in granulated sound and light beams, which stimulate both the eyes and ears.
