“The gap between the points of departure and destination.”

The moment when the neon lights are switched on, changes in electric voltage trigger flashes in the fluorescent tubes, as well as variations in sound effects.

Controlled by the computer system, 0.07 second, 0.02 second or 0.01 second are set as the power-switching times for each respective fluorescent tube. In this project, the 33-cm fluorescent lamps are carried out by the same switch circuit. In other words, when the power switch receives signals from the computer system, all the fluorescent lamps would perform the same act at the same time. However, as soon as the fluorescent lamps are switched on, the inherent physical phenomenon would trigger various lighting frequencies for each respective tube in a random fashion. The sounds, also digitally controlled by computer programs, feature both feeble humming of the fluorescent lights and its higher-volume counterpart, which is amplified by 80 times.

un- is a piece of sound installation, in which large rhythmic changes are controlled by the artist, whereas delicate and minute rhythmic changes are the result of the physical phenomenon produced by the neon light itself. The latter therefore tends to be random and unpredictable.



「離開起點 到達終點 的 空隙」

日光燈啟動的瞬間,因為電壓的變化,引發燈管閃爍與聲響變化,
透過電腦控制,給予0.07秒、0.02秒與0.001秒的 電力開關切換。
電腦同時開啟與同時關閉,燈管啟動的物理現象,引發各自不一的亮起頻率,如亂數般的呈現。
聲響利用數位程式控制,分別呈現了日光燈自身的微小聲響、與放大80倍的聲音體驗。

作品為一件聲音裝置,作者控制了大段落的節奏變化,
細小緊湊的節奏,則是日光燈的物理現象:隨機、無法準確預估。
