Sound of the Mountain 山的聲音




At the core of our work is the question:

How do we make work that is not about us?
or How can we serve something that is larger than ourselves?

We are vectors, aggregates; our work is sound, created by action. By continuing to make, we cultivate the work.  We are included in the work, but we are not the work. The work is something we engage with, but it doesn’t need us to change it or direct it.  We are improvisors, and by continuing to create, the work alters.

In a way, the work has its own life, but is also an aggregate, a vector. It is all part of something much larger that we cannot hold. Sometimes we catch sight of this thing, enough to put our trust in it.

我們的創作核心提問:


如何作出無我的創作?
換個方式說,如何對待大於我們的東西?


我們是向量的,聚合的;透過行動製造聲音,持續地創作以培養作品。
我們身處於作品中,參與作品的進程,但我們不是作品本身,它不需要我們去改變或指導它。
我們是即興創作者,在持續的創作中,作品持續地改變。

在某種程度上,作品本身有自己的生命,但它也是一個集合的、向量的東西。
它屬於一個大於我們的東西。 有時我們見證這個東西,這樣的見證足以讓我們信任它。




☯ ABOUT

Sound of the Mountain


Sound of the Mountain is a duo featuring the hollowed-out sounds of Elizabeth Millar and Craig Pedersen on amplified clarinet, trumpet and self-made instruments. Using a sound language which merges acoustic and electronic textures through amplification and extended performance techniques they evoke a vast range of textures, from silence and spaciousness, to rumbling bass and room saturation. The whistles and creaking of metal and reed anticipate the more dense moments of distortion and feedback in pieces that can be appreciated as discreet moments, or longer forms.
