Silkthreads project
In the Silkthreads project, the artists Adrian and Denise have been travelling from Italy, along the silk route to China. Through people's requests made on the website, they collect sounds and images during the journey. Now you can see their achievement in the website! In fact, our everyday diary, memories of going abroad, important events etc can all be documented in this way! If you have time, do have a go!

Radio Day of European Cultures 2005
Europe has this Radio Day across the whole continent. On 16 Oct, stations of different countries will present themes about their cultures. This is a very good idea! Perhaps Taiwan can invite radio stations to do something like this, too.

Sounds before birth
Can you still remember sounds you hear before you were born?
Listen to the sounds reconstructed by Charles Morrow and Bruce Miller. They are pretty interesting!
The website is taken from this site:

Sounds of MIT
A group of MIT researchers who engage in different kinds of freqency have been collaborating to present a huge sound installations. Imagine that if one business building in Taiwan can have such an installation, and speakers play back sounds of business people's offices, then the building would not be as dull as its concrete appearance! Of course, the played back sounds are better to be selected so the work can be more 'beautiful', such as the sounds of stars that MIT researchers do!
Perhaps matching the installations with lighting installations which many big business buildings have had can be interesting, too. For example, the night-turned-colourful building in the intersection between Jian-Kwo North Road and Ming-Chuen East Road in Taipei! Is anyone interested? Perhaps we should collaborate and realise it! ^_^

What a pity...
Quite a few world class artists have installed soundworks in different bus stops around Barcelona. I wish I could experience them in person, but I don't have a Shenggen visa. sigh... I can only wait for the exhibition book published and spend the money to ease my thirst.
