about

“ Seventh month of the lunar calendar. After the opening of the Gates, we come back, hungry, in their city. Their chanting for us multply the spiritual foods. Their fortune-telling, their vehicles, their avenues. Vagrants in the afternoon storms. A procession guides us to the river. Their offerings, their cymbals. Meanwhile, cicadas just borned out of the earth, are chanting too, celebrating their own death, the end of a cycle of life. Their metamorphosis, their choruses. We will reconcile, we will calm down our voices. Soon, a priest will block his ears, becoming deaf to our laments, he will trap us again in the Underground Realm. ”

Field recordings and composition : Summer 2008. Commission by SilenceRadio.org Belgium, 2008. Thanks to Irvic d’Olivier.

陰 曆的第七個月。在所有的門打開後,我們回來了,在他們的城裡,饑餓至極。他們當中有人唱唸一種語言使祭拜給我們的食物不斷增加。他們的預言,他們的車輛, 他們的馬路。流浪在午後的雷陣雨裡。一個遊行隊伍引領我們直到河畔。他們的供品,他們的鈸。在這個時期,剛剛出土的蟬也在高歌,它們的死亡之歌,慶祝著生 命循環的終點接近了。它們的蛻變,它們的合唱。我們將彼此合解並使我們無聲的怨念平靜下來。不久後,一位師父或道人將以手遮耳,避免聽見因地底之門即將重 又關閉所發出的,我們的哀求聲。

主要素材來自2008年夏天的台灣北部,特別是台北龍山寺周遭區域。
