Lend an Ear to the Land Atelier Hui-Kan, Yenting Hsu, Yu Chiao Yang 2022 [The script of this episode] This piece, titled Lend an Ear to the Land, is a collaboration between Atelier Hui-Kan, Yenting Hsu, and Yu Chiao Yang. They use sound as the primary medium to guide the viewer in exploring local stories through sonic encounters. The artists combine field research with storytelling to translate these tales into a series of audio pieces, inviting the audience to experience the pulse of the land through listening. The recordings feature the river’s natural sounds, craft sounds from Yingge’s traditional industries, oral histories from local elders, and tribal folk songs. Navigating the park’s seven designated spots, you are invited to rediscover the Sanying region’s cultural identity through shifting soundscapes. In this unique auditory journey, the artists use sound to transcend visual boundaries, allowing you to engage with the stories of this land through audio, and gain a new perspective of the New Taipei City Art Museum and its surroundings. -- Hosting provided by SoundOn
