乘著風雨聲調潮起潮落,你來我往,掀起一陣無形風波。
一葉晶舟在搖搖晃晃的動態平衡中,飄移,流動,互存共生的生存狀態。
Semiconductors are essential infrastructure for building the future, and in this continuously shifting and modulating world, Taiwan, as a semiconductor hub, is an epitome of the global technology production. Technical objects are produced, exhausted, eliminated, and reborn here, and all of which are inextricably linked with people’s lives. Extending from the artist duo lololol’s long-term iterated observations and responses on the phenomena of natural, industrial, and electronic environments, the collective applies everyday scenarios from their surrounding urban landscapes and uses a multi-narrative audio-visual video installation to regulate the dynamic relationship between technical objects and human beings and to organically imagine the technological reality behind semiconductors on both global and local scales.
Along with the wind and sounds of the rain,
tides get high and fall Low,
setting off an invisible storm, as you come and I go.
A wafer bearer sways in dynamic balance,
drifting, floating in symbiotic coexistence.
