View EventTransparent Boundary
August 07, 2026 - August 09, 2026
Transparent Boundary is a 35-minute immersive contemporary music and new media installation performance that explores the ecological phenomenon of bird "window strikes". By constructing a sensory experimental space utilizing sound, wind flow, and kinetic installations, the audience is invited to move freely through the venue, following bird songs and traversing the gap between the visible and the invisible.
Driven by a live collaborative performance featuring percussionist Yen-Hsuan Wu and Guzheng musician Hsin Fang, interwoven with electronic sound and installations, Transparent Boundary translates the birds' encounter with invisible barriers into a metaphor for the human psyche. Through exploring this "invisible trauma," the work seeks to cross species boundaries and find a shared resonance within our collective vulnerability.
