Soundscape of Body
y. 2018
e. Great Teacher, Body Donation Programme HKU 大體老師,香港大學遺體捐贈計劃
“The largest square has no corners. The greatest vessel takes the longest to finish. Great music has the faintest notes. The great form is without shape.”
Tao Te Ching, chapter 41
The hair and skin of our body come from nature, forming our intriguing body.
Every body is unique, has different height and weight, and its shape can be likened to mountain ranges and coastlines. Our body is a landscape, which can also be read as a musical score.
In the performance titled “Soundscape of Body”, the landscape of our body is scanned using low energy laser and reconstituted into music and lights. The body is transformed into a soundscape, so we can look at our body in a different way and reflect on its nature and relationship with our life.
This performance was created for the 2018 Body Donation Day, organised by the Body Donation Programme of The University of Hong Kong. It provides an entry point into life and death education, by stimulating the audience to think about the value and meaning of life and our body.
「大方無隅,大器晚成, 大音希聲,大象無形」
《道德經》第四十一章
最方正的東西,表面上沒有邊角;
愈貴重的器具,則需要更長的製作時間;
最宏亮的聲音,外在是聽不到的;
而最寬大的形體,卻是看不到的。
身體的形態結構,髮膚受之自然,精密細膩。每個獨特的個體,高矮肥瘦,就如山脈的連綿,海岸線的優雅,每一幅都是來自身體的風景、一章身體的樂譜。
《大音希聲》把我們獨特無異的身體風景,透過掃描身體的形狀,轉換成高低起伏的音階及影像,合成一章身體樂譜演奏出一首來自身體的聲音風景,讓我們聽見來自身體的風景、看見身體的聲音,從而在我們活著的時候思考身體和生命。
本作是為香港大學醫學院遺體捐贈計劃「大體老師」2018年創作,目的是作為生死教育的文本,讓觀眾通過作品思考身體和生命,引發對生命價值的反思和死後身體的意義。
