about

This is my first mountaineering experience. Different from my original imagination, there are a lot of climbers and tourists on the mountain. Everyone challenged to climb to the top of the mountain and take pictures as souvenirs. At the entrance of Guanshanling, I heard from time to time Someone yelling orders to take a group photo is both ridiculous and funny to me.
I was under a big rock on the mountainside, and recorded the sound of the people at the trailhead through the sound reflection of the rock. The edited material also included an impromptu performance using stones at the same location, and the sound of the exit of the mountain tunnel next to the trailhead.
All of these sounds are produced by humans, not what we already think there will be sounds on the mountains, some people will think that these are man-made pollution of natural sounds, but for me the sounds made by human activities, man-made structures or machines and The so-called "natural" sounds are also just the phenomenon of the activities of things on the earth, not binary opposition.

Improvise and field recordings made on November 12, 2022, 2 to 4 pm, Guanshan ling Trailhead, Taiwan

這是我的第一次的登山經驗，與我原先的想像不同，山上有非常多的登山者與觀光客，大家興致高昂的挑戰登上山頂與拍照留念，在關山嶺登山口，不時聽見有人高喊大合照的指令，這一切對我來說既荒謬又有趣。我在山腰的一塊大岩石下方，藉由岩石的聲音反射錄製了登山口群眾的聲音，編輯的材料還包含在同一個位置利用石頭進行的即興演奏、登山口旁的山路隧道出口的聲音。這所有的聲音都是人類產生的，不是我們既有認知中山上會有的聲音，有些人會認為這些是對自然聲音的人為污染，但對我來說人類活動、人造建物或機器發出的聲音和所謂''自然''的聲音，都同樣只是地球上的事物活動的現象，而非二元對立。

2022年11月12日下午2點至4點，關山嶺登山口即興演奏和現場錄音
