Silent Resonance:沉默的回响


The Silent Resonance——Echoes of Authority is a video work that combines visual and auditory experience, As the introduction to the project "A Balloon for the Barbican - Politics of Listening in the City of London", through an in-depth exploration of the spatial environment of the Barbican Centre, It reveals the complex relationship between the unique aesthetics of brutalist architecture and the acoustic space.

《沉默的回响》是一个结合视觉与听觉体验的影像作品,作为 “A Balloon for the Barbican——Politics of Listening in the City of London(一只巴⽐肯的气球)”整个项目的引言部分,通过对巴比肯中心的空间环境进行深入探索,揭示了粗野主义建筑独特的美学与声响空间之间的复杂关系。






The visual elements in the image include the Barbican pool, the surface of the building and its natural environment inside, which together form a symbolic spatial landscape. Through the modular synthesizer, I created reverberations and illusory auditory effects in the sound part, trying to capture and express a feeling similar to auditory hallucinations. This aural design not only reflects the spatial acoustic character of the Barbican Centre, but is also an artistic re-creation of the acoustic dimension of brutalist architecture. Through the interweaving of audiovisual language, the work invites the audience to revisit the iconic Barbican and explore the hidden and profound interaction between architecture and sound. The Barbican Centre is not only important milestone in the history of architecture, but also a practical experimental field of sound politics, and this work is an innovative expression of the perceptual level on this basis.






影像中的视觉元素包括巴比肯的水塘、建筑表面及其内部的自然环境,这些元素共同构成了一个象征性的空间景观。通过模块合成器,我在声音部分创造了混响与虚幻的听觉效果,试图捕捉并表达一种类似幻听的感觉。这种听觉设计不仅反映了巴比肯中心的空间声学特性,也是一种对粗野主义建筑声响维度的艺术性再创造。通过视听语言的交错,作品邀请观众重新审视巴比肯这一标志性建筑,探索建筑与声音之间隐秘而深刻的互动。巴比肯中心不仅是建筑史上的重要里程碑,更是声响政治的现实实验场,而本作品正是在这一基础上进行的感知层面的创新表达。
