寶藏巖國際藝術村—駐村藝術家 Eunji Yoo
《第三種物：無名之弦》

水冷無性，深冥忘名。

地上階級，男女俱解。
 

跟寶藏巖國際藝術村的駐村藝術家Eunjin Yoo合作，視覺藝術出生的他以物件裝置為主，結合台灣、韓國、日本、中國的水鬼傳說與寶藏巖的地景，我再以這些聲音文本來做聲音展演。

​

1. 臺灣水鬼 (대만 수귀)

Concept: 強迫性重複與粒子化 (강박적 반복과 입자화)

「每邁出一步，就得退後一步。在這裡的寶藏巖，路徑總是不斷地將我推向別人的位置。聽見了嗎？那底下淤積的潺潺水聲。我不再是我失去的那個名字，我成了滲入這土地的脈衝（Pulse）。這種強迫性的位置交替，正是我們在城市中苟活的節奏。現在，輪到你了嗎？還是，輪到我了？」

​

2. 韓國水鬼/處女鬼 (한국 물귀신/처녀귀신)

Concept: 糾結與長嘆 (맺힌 것과 탄식)

「當我穿上男裝，用男人的聲音歌唱時，鏡子深處便積壓著那聲永未吐露的嘆息。消失在水裡的，究竟是我的軀體，還是那個我拼命想要抹去的名字？每當風穿過門縫，我就這樣冷冽地散去。這不是尖叫，這是被困在後台數百年來的深長呼吸。直到殘響（Reverb）散盡，直到我的本體赤裸地顯現，這聲空洞的嘆息絕不會止息。」

​

3. 日本河童 (일본 갓파)

Concept: 邊界的無序與故障 (경계의 불규칙성과 글리치)

「喀、喀。喀、喀、喀。我總在水滴匯聚的縫隙間打破規則。你們稱之為歷史的寶藏巖，那堅固的牆面，我只要輕輕一碰，便會產生裂痕。你稱這裡是歷史遺跡，但我視之為數據在平滑表層上隨意跳動的遊樂場。看見我插入你那規整敘事中的『數位故障（Digital Glitch）』了嗎？我穿透邊界，撕開你的敘事。」

​

4. 中國官僚鬼 (관료제 귀신)

Concept: 權威的壓迫與工業噪聲 (권위적 압박과 인더스트리얼 노이즈)

「歷史，終究是由記錄者決定的。我是流動在寶藏巖瓦礫間、無法逃避的低鳴（Drone），是那股沉重的體制之力。我的聲音如同工業打擊樂，壓制著你們的步伐。即便是那蠱惑人心的笑聲，或是那冷冽的嘆息，在我的金屬轟鳴之牆中，都必須被重組為秩序。現在，唯一能穿透這道權威之牆的，只有你的扮演（Role-playing）。在這角色之中，你又能證言些什麼？」

​

Water is cold and genderless; In the deep dark, names are forgotten.

Earthly status and the boundary of man and woman are both liberated.

​

I had the opportunity to collaborate with Eunjin Yoo, an artist-in-residence at Treasure Hill Artist Village.

Trained as a visual artist, Eunjin primarily works with object-based installations.

Drawing on water ghost folklore from Taiwan, Korea, Japan, and China, together with the landscape and history of Treasure Hill, he created an installation, while I composed a sonic work from these texts and voices.

​

1. Taiwanese Water Ghost

Concept: Compulsive Repetition & Granulation

“For every step forward, I must take one back. Here in Treasure Hill, every path keeps pushing me into someone else’s place. Can you hear it? The murmuring water buried beneath the silt. I am no longer the name I lost—I have become a pulse seeping into this land. This compulsive exchange of positions is the rhythm by which we survive in the city. Now, is it your turn? Or is it mine?”

​

2. Korean Water Ghost / Virgin Ghost

Concept: Entanglement & the Long Sigh

“Whenever I put on men’s clothing and sing in a man’s voice, an unspoken sigh gathers deep within the mirror. What disappeared into the water—my body, or the name I tried so desperately to erase? Each time the wind slips through the cracks of a doorway, I disperse into the cold air. This is not a scream; it is a breath trapped backstage for centuries. Until the last reverberation fades, until my true form stands bare, this hollow sigh will never cease.”

​

3. Japanese Kappa

Concept: Disorder at the Boundary & Glitch

“Click. Click. Click-click-click. I always break the rules where droplets gather in the cracks. You call Treasure Hill history, its walls solid and enduring—but with the lightest touch, I can make them fracture. You see a historical site; I see a playground where data skips across a smooth surface. Do you see the digital glitch I’ve inserted into your orderly narrative? I cross the boundary and tear your story open.”

​

4. Chinese Bureaucratic Ghost

Concept: Authoritarian Pressure & Industrial Noise

“History is always decided by those who record it. I am the drone resonating through the rubble of Treasure Hill, the weight of a system from which there is no escape. My voice strikes like industrial percussion, pressing down upon your every step. Even seductive laughter and icy sighs must be reorganized into order within my wall of metallic thunder. Now, the only thing capable of piercing this wall of authority is your role-playing. And within that role, what testimony can you offer?”
