From Architectural Immanence來自建築內部
The video presented the situation which can see everywhere in China. On the one hand there are more and more Chinese old houses are being destroyed and international style new buildings are being established. On the other hand many new buildings have Chinese traditional elements. I used images of old and new buildings in the video and tried to create music from the outline of the buildings.
錄像素材來自兩個部分的建築影像和圖片:一部分攝自安徽傳統老建築,另一部分影像攝於西方現代都市建築。通過計算機技術將這兩部分的影像素材合成相互覆蓋、交替、對抗等拉鋸狀態,產生出一系列戲劇性的效果。從這些風格大不相同的建築輪廓中獲取信息,再將這些信息演變的音樂。影像中的紅點和黃點是樂譜的依據所在,紅、黃點沿著建築的輪廓行走,它們在五線譜上的位置便是音符。紅點沿著中國傳統建築輪廓行走,用傳統樂器演奏;黃點沿都市輪廓行走,以西洋樂器演奏。
