《人間機器》始於2019年北京今日美術館《第三屆今日未來館·機器人間》策展人龍星如的邀約，為該展覽設計聲音為前提，而後續發展成為多媒體/聲音/ 舞蹈演出的作品。 “Déjà vu”的聲音專輯以展覽《機器人間》的導覽文本英文版中所用到的100個詞為出發點，再將A-Z的26個字母轉化成數位，導覽語也進而被轉譯成數位序列，並被輸入到音序器當中進行編排，形成100個不同的旋律。
《人間機器》現場演出以Déjà vu專輯裡的100個Track為藍本，舞者將通過身體動作調度和有限的即興規則當中，隨機觸發專輯裡100個Track，進而產生隨機綿延的旋律。舞蹈被認為是純“身體”的行動，更傾向於主觀時間經驗與肢體感受的領域，也通常被視為技術的對壘，但這種看似純粹的“身體性”也在經歷與技術之間的咬合與交融。 看似被設計好的軟件程式將如何與身體進行對話？ 無法被計算的身體軌跡會被數據的追蹤下而失去生命力嘛？ 記憶的產生和紀錄在人工智能的發展之下還會真實的保存下來嘛？ 未來的我們會真實的存在嘛？ |
Déjà vu was originally the commissioned sound design for curator Ms Iris Long’s exhibition the 3rd Future of Today DE JA VU, which took place at Beijing’s Today Art Museum in 2019, and later evolved into a multimedia/sound/dance production. The audio album of Déjà vu is based on the 100 English words used in the textual exhibit guide, of which the 26 alphabets (A to Z) are digitised by sound artist Wang Yuanqing; the exhibit guide is then transcoded as sequence of digits, and loaded into the sequencer for arrangement, forming 100 tracks.
The live performance of Déjà vu uses the 100 tracks as its blueprint, Macao-born and Beijing-based dancer Alexis Kam triggers audio with her motion and finite impromptu rules, thus generating random and continuous melodies. Dance is often regarded as pure movement of the ‘body’, and is more inclined to the fields of subjective time experience and bodily sensations, which are generally considered as the contrary of technology. However, in this performance, friction and fusion is found between the seemingly pure ‘physicality’ and technology. How will the ostensibly designed software programme communicate with the body? Will the incalculable physical trajectory lose its vitality under data-tracking? With the advancement of AI, will the generation and registering of memory be genuinely preserved? Ultimately, will we truly exist in the future? |
