I go to concert halls a lot to listen to classical music. I’m particularly interested in the effects that instruments and music have on people’s senses in the concert hall. I secretly put a camera in my bag and turned it on when I entered Shanghai Symphony Orchestra Concert Hall, so I got a piece of record of moving shots when going through the gate, passing the security check, looking for seats and settling down.

 

The listener's inner environment produces psychological tension as the situation changes. The audience buy tickets, wait for the performance date, enter the hall, and the audience's expectation rises until the end of the performance. The camera is a concept of leading that brings vision and hearing into the concert hall, and integrates these two independent senses that exist in different spaces into one space.

​

This installation combines the live photos of the concert hall secretly captured by the camera with a speaker. The speaker plays the sounds I collected during the secret recording, restoring the live effects of the concert hall. The fixed compression of vision and the diffusion of sound from the speaker form an audio-visual mechanism in the concert hall space.
