Amanda Szostek I'm here listening to this Taoist underwater garden rite... in the dark- in my bed -it seems i'm immersed spacially between the waves, within my headphones- it's a life experience itself; to be inside this water- the waves and coral/ i love the lute ;)

about

PENGHU EXPERIMENTAL SOUND STUDIO #3

« The title of this sound piece is borrowed to Nanguan, an ancient music style from Southern China, still practiced in Taiwan. This song, part of a Taoist ritual, describes a journey into an other-wordly and colorful garden. The condition of the plants and the pavilion seen on the path would reflect the participant's future.
I have been visiting Penghu archipelago, Taiwan, since 2004. Its islands, surrounded by blue-green water, and battled by the wind during the Winter, are presenting a unique landscape of basalt structures, prairies and houses made of coral blocks.
But the most attractive and precious environments are underwater. In 2008, a cold water stream, consequence of climate change, destroyed a large part of the coral reefs. Overfishing, drifting garbage, abandoned fishing nets and construction projects constitute a huge pressure on these natural habitats.
I have done underwater recordings since a while, but it is only this year that I finally started a more systematic sound documentation, in collabo- ration with marine biologists, experimenting with recording techniques, initiating a sound archive and bioacoustic survey.
I consider Dit lip hue hng as a metaphor : visiting these underwater gardens and observing their condition might give us a hint about our own future as a human species. »
