Short play

Empty stage. A yellow projector light projects to a woman aged around 20~25 on the stage.

The woman start sobbing. Quietly. Staring blankly on the floor. 5 minutes had passed, she start crying with tears louder and louder. Another 10 minutes passed, she start to staring at the audience and still crying. Another 15 minutes had passed. She is still crying.

The light turned off suddenly. A scream. Curtains down.



LOL, this play needs someone who really can cry. :P

Folk songs and myths

Folk songs, or say folk rhythms, is always my favorite. Chinese folk songs, the pentatonic scale, the drums. The mongolian throat singing and matouqin, the Norwegian jaw harp, the Sami Yoik, the runic songs, the Romanian dances, and Balkan music mix with gypsy music. The african drums and dances. Pagan religions and mythology.

On feature is that it is usually something about the mythical "imaginary" (or not!) world where Nature being transformed into creatures that share the same language of human society. Even we have long forgotten the universal language Nature uses, we still tend to communicate with Nature in our own language. We imagine there are gods or giants control raining, thunder, lightening, snowing, and the sun. We imagined there were ten suns upon the sky that Houyi (whose wife flied to the moon because she took too much drug!) had to shoot nine of them down to save the earth.

All these are hidden inside the folk music. When it plays, you get to see the ancient world come alive again in front of your eyes.

Did you see the rabbit shape shadow on the moon?

Music

Some music makes me productive (on writing), like Ketil Bjørnstad and Bach.
Some music wakes me up, like Matthew Lien.
Some music speeds up my mind, like Garbage, PInk Floyd (sometimes), Queen, Echo.
Some music knocks me out, like Bartók, and the folksongs.
Some music makes me cry, like the always forever lovely romantic chinese classicals.
And some music force me to hide from the sound waves, like CHINESE POP SONGS! LOL!

Holding the speakers tight, to feel the vibration, let it strokes the heart.
Flow with the tempo.
That's the moment when the soul turns into a liquid form.

Looking back then I notice how my culture nurtures me.
Could've worked harder, but. :)
Still much much to grasp, much to learn.

Dance with the music. Dance.

玩玩Google Translate

  前幾天注意到Google Reader上面有個"Translate into my language"的選項。因為界面是英文,所有中文都被翻成英文,於是讓我想到了粉紅色噪音。翻譯過的文字是半詩意的,但我更想要讓它變得無法閱讀、無法理解。有人說,古文就行了,但我總想要它是散文。
  那麼,就來試試吧!

Oh, before that, we can have the famous Lucky from Beckett's Waiting for Godot! Original Text Here

那麼那麼文字多語並來回翻譯不完全的無法理解的奇妙詩意反覆進行撞擊沖積。
而如此的文字翻譯成英文竟然另有一番意義!

關於自身情緒的新發現...

  說我是笨蛋吧。一直到這幾天才發現,原來我心情不好的時候通常有兩個主因: 1. 睡太少、太累,累過頭到自己都不覺得累,所以心情不好。 2. 餓了,但是又沒有意識到餓了。 通常這兩個原因都會在我喝過奶茶或是咖啡因飲料之後發生。

  原來我有餓肚子氣!哈哈!

寫啊寫

  當閱讀得越來越多,寫字打字好像就變成一種無法避免的嘔吐,因為身體裡塞進太多文字太多資訊,因為腦子停不住,因為憂鬱焦慮想太多堆得比人還高。
  跑了幾家店仍然找不到我想要的空白精裝筆記本。又當特定的某些事件讓我無法克制的持續書寫持續煩惱持續聒噪,一本恰當、帶有書寫重量的書變得極為重要,找不到這樣的書這樣的紙便讓我感到坐立難安。
  雖說前陣子難得放了幾年來的第一個假期,情緒難得平靜,但當假期結束,那所有所有的又再度降臨。每次當自己必須安靜的獨自呆在一個空間中,同樣的情緒便回來拜訪。於是耍賴著不唸書不起床,卻又嘗試要陽光的活著。
  買了更多的書,讀更多的書,造就更多更頻繁更無法抑制的嘔吐。
  差那麼一點又要將無止境可怕的情緒傾倒在最重要的人身上,又突然間意識到那樣並不公平。
  問題好像就在有太多想做有太多想要有太多想達到,而整個世界卻以另一種標準另一種速度前進著,還很年輕就覺得老。
  是真的,累過頭了嗎?
  這也是最後不到半年的大學生涯了呢。

Now is the end of the beautiful dream

...Or reality.
Traveller return to the north.
But my spirit is with you along the way.
Inseparable.

I vision a circle, like the snake that eats its tail.
Ouroboros.
The repeating renewal.
The return of original.
We are back to the start again, but nothing is the same anymore.

The most beautiful shape of all, the circle.
Rotation, circulation, up to the sky.

Physical journey ends.
Mental journey just began.

And thus life is fulfilled.
