/ Samuel Swope
A swarm of flying speakers sonifies the patterns and movements of drone show choreography. Each speaker independently synthesizes the body of the drone it piggybacks on—the whir of rotors, the shifts in manoeuvre. Airborne together, they produce a flying soundscape that drifts and pulses overhead, shaped by the air itself.
一群飛行中的揚聲器化身為聲音表演的核心裝置,將無人機編舞的軌跡與動態轉譯為聲響。每一個揚聲器各自回應其所依附的無人機機身——旋翼的嗡鳴、轉向與位移的變化——並在空中即時生成聲音。當它們共同升空,聲音隨之展開為一片漂浮於空中的聲景,在觀眾頭頂游移、起伏與脈動,成為由氣流共同塑形的飛行聲音表演。

Shen's multimedia practice extends beyond musical composition and performance to include installation and non-traditional methods of distribution. Her DIY approach to deconstructing the concepts of "materiality, value and mass production" both integrate and re-contextualize the formats of the readymade and assemblage techniques. For example, the album art for her debut LP, Hair Birth, utilizes copper to transform the cover into a loudspeaker through which the record can be played. In 2021, Shen produced a series of cut-up records in cast resin embedded with found materials, functioning not only as playable music media but as unique art objects. For recent performances, she pioneered the use of Needle Nails, acrylic nails with embedded turntable styluses, which allow her to play up to 5 tracks of a record at once. Needle Nails, Levitating speaker, and her Noise Combs are some of the objects created by her as part of an extensive repertoire of innovations in the design of sound augmentation.
These sculptural elements invite the viewer to unpack one's relationship with the material possibilities for creating sound.
Evicshen 的多媒體實踐超越了音樂創作與演出,延伸至裝置藝術與非傳統的發行方式。她以 DIY 的方式解構「物質性、價値與大量生產」等概念,既整合現成物的形式與拼裝技法,也同時將兩者重置於新的語境之中。例如,她的首張 LP《Hair Birth》使用了銅材質,將專輯封面轉化為可播放唱片的揚聲器。2021 年,Shen 製作了一系列以鑄造樹脂製成、內嵌拾得物的切割唱片,它們不僅是可播放的音樂媒介,也同時是獨一無二的藝術物件。
在近期的表演中,她率先使用「Needle Nails」——內嵌唱針的壓克力指甲——使她能同時播放一張唱片上最多五條音軌。Needle Nails、懸浮喇叭(Levitating Speaker)以及她的「噪音梳(Noise Combs)」都是她在聲音擴增設計方面大量創新成果的一部分。這些雕塑元素邀請觀者重新思考自己與聲音創造中物料可能性之間的關係。
