Swimming in the Sea of Sound Waves




 It is a project I did in the summer of 2012.

The stage was set in a abandoned school house of the elementary school in Sandiaoling.I spend around two months collecting sound and local stories from this tiny town used to have coal mining business.

I used these sound as an inspiration and source to create an interactive installation in an empty space in this school house. And I invited a professional dancer , whose name is Wanjen Chang, to come before opening day. We spent few days play around it to see how the sound goes with the movement, and arranged this performance in 22nd, September, 2012.

The video above is the documentary of this show, we like it to be seen even if you're not there that day. Hope you enjoy it and you are more than welcomed to share: on facebook, or your opinion of this work. Cheers!
