about

Things are not supposed to change so fast. Taipei 2010 is not so different from Taipei 1990 which was itself the consequences of the modernist Taipei 1970. Therefore Taipei 2030 is already there. One can listen to it right now. And this Taipei 2030 is a dystopia: air condition is becoming mandatory for the survival of human beings. Streets are filled with the vibrations from huge cooling machineries, families are spending weekends in underground hermetic shopping malls, teenagers gather in the corridors of the mass transportation systems. But the utopic Taipei 2030 will host subtropical insects and even some rare vegetables patches, providing to the inhabitants a proof of the pre-industrial past of Taiwan. The people of Taipei may still need the traditional form of trade which is the market, where the voices are essential part of the public space. In some area our contemporary ways of transportation will become exotic traces of the past. Meanwhile in the liveless zones between the schizophrenic and autonomous buildings that flourish in Taiwan, one would listen to new ways of transportations. The nature still present in the surroundings of the city will become the exception of urbanization, a playground for high-speed ecological sport.

Recorded and composed between June and August 2009. Commission by The Positive Soundscape, UK, 2010. Thanks to Peter Cusack and Richard Whiltelaw. First presentation during the festival Expo Leeds, UK, September 2010, organized by Sound and Music (soundandmusic.org).

似乎多數事物並不會改變得太快...。作為1970年台北現代化的演變 之後的1990年版, 與2010年版的台北並沒有太巨大的差異。其實2030的台北已經在那裡了。我們現在就可以聽到其中一部份。而這個2030的台北是反烏托邦的：空調系統 正成為人類生活中的不可或缺之物。街道馬路充滿了巨型冷卻機的震動聲響, 許多家庭在封閉的地下商場渡過他們的週末時光, 青少年們選擇在大眾運輸系統的廊道間聚集。而另一面, 烏托邦版的台北2030是容納各種亞熱帶昆蟲, 以及一些植作區域, 為工業化前的台灣景象作見證。而台北居民或許仍需要如市場這類傳統的生活交易場所, 在那裡, 人聲是這類公共空間最重要的一環。在另外一些區域, 我們現今的交通工具將變成一種令人回味過往生活的重要線索。而介於快速繁殖且精神分裂的獨立大樓之間的冷清地帶, 人們可以聽到另一種新的運輸方式。在城市周邊存續著的大自然, 將是都市化環境的一種例外：它成為具環保意識的高速運動場所。在編創台北2030一作時, 我覺得要發展這個主題, 最容易且有意思的方式就是將它分成兩個部份。一個是台北聲音的烏托邦, 形成讓我們時而想起過往台灣的聲音景象, 鼓勵都會中的自然多樣性, 以及對環境友善的交通工具....等等。另外一部份則是反烏托邦的境界, 且很不幸地, 今天的生活空間中充滿這些暗示, 例如大的街道上川流不息的車流和摩拖車陣, 空調系統的過度使用, 以及商夜空間中過大分貝的擴音系統或音樂播放...。

2009 年, 英國 The Positive Soundscape 藝術節邀請創作。該年藝術節以2030年的城市聲音為創作主題, 邀請國際知名聲音工作者Chris Watson (選擇英國的一個城市), 以及Yannick Dauby (以台北為創作對象)。於該藝術節中公開播放發表, 並舉辦發表後座談。
