颜峻的私人客厅巡游刚刚结束,近三个月里,他在不同的私人空间一共顺利地完成了九场演出,参于过的人应该深有体会。在场的观众较容易全心的观看,更自然的静心聆听,更是少了在公共场所的嘈杂且避开了烟酒等社交工具所带来的浓浓气味,或许猜这就是客厅巡演的初衷。

Veteran sound artist Yan Jun has just finished a three-month-long tour of living rooms in Beijing, altogether encompassing nine unique performances, each leaving a deep impression on the people who participated. No noisy distractions of public spaces, no bar, no loud socializing… the audience of each private performance was allowed to simply listen and meditate in a closed domestic space. This was the goal of the tour.

闯入一个陌生的空间,坐等发声,眼神取代了语言交流,信息介于扩声器的频响范围之内,中途或者失去耐性,或者进入睡眠,甚或中枢兴奋,这都没有关系,没有人打算干扰你的自由,这本身即是一场声音触发性的行动。

Enter a strange room, sit and wait for the sound, communicate with eyes instead of spoken language. Information is mediated by the frequency ranges of the microphone, personal feedback. During the performance maybe you lose patience, maybe you fall asleep… it doesn’t matter. No one obstructs your freedom. In itself, the performance is about sound triggering personal reactions.

这次我们邀请颜峻在OUTDUSTRY办公室露天的小院里演出,并不是客厅巡演主题,而是于他私人客厅巡游之后的个人专场演出,但同样是走入一个他从未到的空间,给我们的耳朵制造不同的听觉体验。

Now Outdustry invites Yan Jun to perform at our headquarters, a small outdoor courtyard. It won’t be quite the same experience as a living room. It’s more like a normal performance, a follow-up, but similar in the sense that the artist will be improvising for the first time in a new space, and will give our ears a new sense and experience of hearing.
