作品名稱:Current Light / 時光
YAO Chung-Han 姚仲涵
2015-2016

Human being divides time into trivial units of hour, minute and second. It becomes an instrumental system that is beyond the languages and connects the world. However, time is an idea of flowing. Each organisms experience time and its’ working rhythm in a different way.

Current Light display numbers indicating hour, minute and second that synchronizes real time through light of fluorescent light. But because fluorescent light is an analog product, time from the moment electric pass through until it was lighted often exceeded one second. Utilizing its’ physical limitation, Yao Chung-Han reveals the experience of time through visual indication of “too late to reveal…” or “anticipating the arrival of next period of time…”.

The flow created from attempt to synchronize with time, is the most vital character of time.

人類以時、分、秒的度量方法將時間分割成數個細小單位，成為一種連結世界的工具性系統，超越了語言的限制。然而時間是一種流動的概念，每種生物對於時間的感知及運行韻律也各有不同。

〈時光〉以日光燈的光亮顯示時、分、秒等數字，與現實時間同步。然而由於日光燈是一種類比的產品，從通電到亮起所需時間往往超過一秒。姚仲涵藉此物理性限制，在視覺上出現了一種「來不及顯示…」或是「期待下一個時間的到來….」的時間感受。

為了要與時間同步而產生了流動感，則是時間最有生命力的特徵。

Each beat is not always consistent
Each sound is always inconsistent

You call me artificial heart beat
I call you & me asthenical heart beats

tranSonic is a frontier sound art performance event in Taiwan, whose performance is mainly sound creation. It gets beyond the boundary of sounds, and tries the combination and develops them by diverse media.
( txt was from the tranSonic website )

It was my first time to show my new piece, HeartBeat,
it wasn’t so loudly, because i wanna to break my past rule.
I’m thinking the relationship between sound performance and performance art…

Actually i ask some questions by my performance,
and i will ask it again in the future.

my performance, HeartBeat

IO Gallery and i/O Lab. look so similar, but they are different.
"io" in these two groups both mean input/output…
Maybe we have the same concept about the media life and daily life….
🙂

I feel so pleasure i can have a exhibition with Samson Young in IO Gallery
also i met many friends in that time.
The exhibition was from 16th Jul. until 5th Sep.
check it if you have time
🙂

IO畫廊 和 i/O Lab. 看起來是這麼的類似，但其實不一樣
io在這兩個單位裡頭都是意指input與output
也許我們思考媒體與生活有相同的想法

我很榮幸可以和楊嘉輝一同在香港IO展出
也很開心在香港遇到許多朋友
展期從7月16到9月5號
歡迎有空的朋友參觀
🙂

I had showed 3 parts in this performance,
First part was composed by white noise,
2nd and 3rd part performed with lamps.

I drank a bit beer before my performed, it really worked!
Maybe i’m too serious when i working.

那天的表演我呈現了三個段落，
第一個段落是由白色噪音所組成，
第二三段的聲音來自日光燈。

演出前喝了一些酒讓我放鬆許多！
可能是我平常工作很嚴肅～

There had some link wrote about this performance. ( only Mandarin)

It’s opening performance for the exhibition called
"Mobility, Sound, and Form Sound, Image installation organized by GRAME" at Taipei Fine Art Museum.

I found i will perform more smooth if i have a beer before performance,
but the venue is in Taipei Fine Art Museum, so i can’t have a beer before my show.
My friend brought a beer for me, thanks a lot !
🙂

I performed at the lobby, so the echo effect was so strong.
Not easy for the PA crew !!

Casa love to stay there when i work
he seems so enjoy the strong light
but finally, he broke one lamp
the title for this piece called "I Will be Broken"

Casa 很喜歡在我做這件作品的時候待在那邊
好像很享受那個白光
不過他還是打破了一個燈管

i will have a exhibition and performance at IO Gallery in HongKong
(IO→HK, i/O Lab.→TW )
exhibition will from 16th Jul. – 5th Sep.
and performance will on 16th Jul. 8pm
at 31a Wyndham Street; Central; HK

i’m looking forward

Shih Chien University / Taipei Campus

There were so many young artists in this event
I also performed in this event, so I recorded some of the performances.
But I didn’t record all of them, I felt a bit sorry for that.

Sound art events are usually free in Taiwan.
However, the performance was in a commercial area this time
So the fare was not so cheap, especially for students

Thank all the audiences for attending the event~~

這場演出有許多年輕的藝術家參與
但是因為我本身也有演出,所以我只紀錄了一些演出者
對其他演出者感到不好意思

聲音藝術的活動通常在台灣是免費的
但這場表演因為位於商業空間,對學生而言票價並不便宜,

感謝那天到場的觀眾
