  • Sound installation
  • Thermosensitive material shell, speaker, sensors, internal circuitry, and control program

The installation continuously emits noise. Viewers can reduce the noise by touching the work, yet after a short interval the noise resumes. The act of touch itself does not actually reduce the noise; the apparent reduction is an illusion produced for the viewer by the sensor and program system. The "result we perceive" and the "result that has actually occurred" are often not identical. This is a condition we repeatedly encounter in algorithmically structured society, often without realizing it.

The persistent, intractable noise keeps urging us to touch the installation again, while also reminding us that we are caught within a swamp of invisible rules.

The work itself may be understood as a strange loudspeaker, a talkative sculpture, or an alarm clock that cannot be turned off.

跃跃欲试,喋喋不休

  • 跃跃欲试,喋喋不休

  • 声音装置
  • 温敏材质外壳,喇叭,传感器,内部电路与控制程序

装置持续性的发出噪音,观众可以通过触摸装置来降低噪声,但是过一段时间之后噪音又会响起——触摸的行为本身并没有降低噪音,噪音降低的现象只是传感器与程序系统为观众造成的幻象——我们“看到的结果”与“实际发生的结果”往往并不统一,这是我们在算法构成的社会中经常遇到但又不自知的一种体验。

持续的,难以消除的噪音喋喋不休的提醒着我们再次触摸装置,也提醒着我们正陷入在隐性规则的沼泽当中。

而作品本身,则可以被看作一款奇怪的音箱,一件话唠的雕塑,或者一个关不掉的闹钟。
