[探索十二] liminality
“being in a performance space is, in itself, a liminal experience…” I continue to explore this thought from a sound/music point of view.
Performance VS. Performer VS. Self
When am I a performer? When am I myself? When am I myself and also a performer? When am I performing? When am I a listener although my body is performing? When is it a “performance”? When is it not? When does it all overlaps?When does it get segregated?
The liminal relationship is an interesting one for me. My previous attempt at focusing on space had failed terribly, resulting in me trying to “fill up or emptying a space”. After some thoughts, I realized that my relationship with space is one that is indirect. I am not presenting “space”, even though sound fills up a space and shapes a space. But the result is one that is a “product of” or “interpretive”; not “translation”.
displacements | juxtapositions | relocation
Hence, my focus is now on the liminal relationship between self, performer and the performance. My concentration on gaps, silences, “breathing space” and calculated pauses that are propelled by necessary motivations become important.
