交互共生對話

「Inter / Being」存在於生物與生物之間、生物與非生物之間、人與人之間、人與物之間、人與領域之間、領域與領域之間。每個當下,萬物都在交互作用。 而我們,要如何有方向性的讓交互作用開始發生?

在〈Inter-(Being)互生〉展中的作品《相即共生練習簿——出神1:1》開始於對於「微觀表演性(microperformativity)」的探索——以身體模仿病毒感染複製的關鍵步驟,嘗試以非語言性的方式理解此生物機制,以延展到病毒與人類互動的巨觀結構,嘗試建立乘載疫情所觸發的情感的平台。開展之際,初始平台已建立。而下一階段,將讓平台活絡。

〈Inter-(Being)互生〉展由科學信仰的「病毒敘事」出發,也因機緣遇見了社會病毒敘事的陳懋璋、古老巫儀聲響傳統的陳沛元,決定從「即興」與「表演性」在《相即共生練習簿——出神1:1》這個平台上開始進行一系列實驗。因而有接下來的計畫。

Discourse of Inter-(Being)

The concept of ‘Inter/Being’ is manifested between the interactions of species and species, biological and non-biological, person to person, human and objects, man and expertises, studies and professions. There is no moment without interactions. And how do we provoke a directional interaction to happen?

The work ‘Studies of Interbeing - Trance 1:1’ started from the perspective of ‘microperformativity’ – using the body to restage the movement of virus replication, through which explores the possibility to understand this biological mechanism without words. And through which, extends to the macroscopic structure of virus-human interactions, to create a platform to contain the emotions contextualised by the pandemic. As the exhibition ‘Inter-(Being)’ opens, the platform has been built. And the next step, is to give life to the platform.

The exhibition ‘Inter-(Being)’ started from a ‘viral narration’ based on science ideology, and through an unexpected reason, has cross the route with Mao-Chang Chen who explores the societal aspect of viral narrations, and Pei-Yuan Chen who situates himself within the sonic iatromantis practices. We decided to populate the platform of “Studies of Interbeing - Trance 1:1” with explorations and experiments on improvisations and performativities. And thus, these events.

《甘水湯》-- 甘水

沛瑩備料,甘水熬湯。人類基因序用大音量噪音熬煮,正弦波大戰核苷酸,湯湯水水渾沌濃稠。

“Gam Zuei Thng” - Gam Zuei

Prepared by Pei, stewed by Gam Zuei. Human genome simmered with a high volume of noise. Sine wave at war with Amino Acid. Soup, water, mixed, chaos.

《觀共生》-- 陳沛元、陳懋璋、林沛瑩

遠古滲透參未來
微觀突變造宏觀
精氣神入共生胎
肉身降解煉金丹

“Contemplating Inter-Being” - Pei-Yuan Chen, Mao-Chang Chen, Pei-Ying Lin

Ancients infiltrating reflective futures.
As micro mutations reveal macroscopic patterns.
Essence, breath, and spirit, fertilising a rebirth.
While presence and physicality deconstruct into immortality.

《When Noise Becomes Information》-- 甘水

雜訊(noise)無所不在,從宇宙微波背景輻射(CMBR)到人類基因序中來自病毒的那小部分。

而當我們專注於探尋雜訊,當unwanted變成了wanted,雜訊便不再是雜訊,而是隱匿的珍貴資訊。

本表演試圖以多音軌的噪音(also, noise)來詮釋病毒基因在人類基因序中,潛藏、共存、相互制衡的種種樣貌。

“When Noise Becomes Information” - Gam Zuei

Noise is omnipresent. From the cosmic microwave background to the small viral origin genes inside the human genome.

When we devoted to the search of noise, when the ‘unwanted’ become ‘wanted’, noise is no longer noise, but hidden valuable information.

This performance uses multitrack noises to interpret virus genome within the human genome, exploring the multitude of undercurrent symbiosis as well as checks and balances.

三人作品在此刻相互交錯,瞬間撞出瑣碎語句。句子在空間裡四散,碎落一地意象,圖像與關鍵字再度結合,排斥;聲音攀著軸線,滴答滴答的伸長手足竊取時間,作品們繼續說話,喋喋不休。這時,有一人轉身。伸出食指放到雙唇中央,示意:噓,最高品質。

Three artists, each with their own work, confluences here and now, splashing fragments of words. Sentences and words disperse in the space, crashing onto the ground with meanings. Images and keywords first recombine, and then reject each other. Sound, crawling along the chronicles. Tick-tock tick-tock, sound, extending its limbs to steal the time, as the works chatter, and chatter. Suddenly, someone turns around, index finger on the lips: Shhh, be quiet.
