Shih-Lin Hung
Soundscapes [audio tracks] On-site June 3rd and online June 11th:
"uu.u ..n..nf f .fo f ...o. o.c c.u.se e d d dd... dd d"
The artwork was completed one night in a forest amidst strong winds.
The artwork titled "uu.u ..n..nf f .fo f ...o. o.c c.u.se e d d dd... dd d" features random repetition, disassembly, and overlapping of unfocused letters, symbolizing the sound of the artwork - layered, blurred, and unfocused.
The process of creating the sound involved:
1. Amplifying various sounds using a recording device, such as wind, rustling leaves, and branches, in large quantities and layers.
2. Using sound processing software to adjust the EQ frequency and direction of listening.
These two processes of creating the sound represent the blurred and unfocused feeling we experience when recalling memories of the past.
