作品摘要解說 五行包含金、木、水、火、土木五種元素。此作品分別使用中國鈸、木魚、雨水、煙火砲、石頭等聲響象徵金、木、水、火、土。這些聲音透過數位訊號技術如粒狀合成(Granular Synthesis),濾波(filtering)、速度改變(speed change)、拼接(Splicing)與堆疊(Ensembling)之處理。一種把東西方發展上特徵相互為用之理念; 以西方電腦科技DSP技術把象徵中國文化之聲響作變形,體現中國五行。
The title comes from Chinese philosophy Wushien, meaning the “five elements”: Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth , which becomes the subtitle of each movement and also reflects the basic material used for each respectively:
  1. Metal, Chinese cymbal sounds
  2. Wood, wood block sounds
  3. Water, water flashing sounds
  4. Fire, firework sounds
  5. Earth, earthquake sounds
Continue the link with French tradition, Wushien(the Chinese five elements) is an acousmatic suite in 6 movements. With the exception of the first movement serving as a prelude to the whole set, each movement bears its own subtitle: Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth respectively, which also reveal the fundamental quality of sonic material used for each of them.

The work reflects composer’s long-sustained interests in both exploring the possibility of sonic transformation and integrating western with oriental elements in art work. As shown in the work, various western DSP techniques(i.e.,cross, and granular synthesis..etc) and compositional techniques(i.e., organizing, in Varese’s word, and montaging..etc ) were utilized to transform and manipulate sounds with oriental culture reference (i.e.,temple block and monks voices..etc).
Software used for the work includes SoundHack, Metasynth, Hyperprism, Audiomulch and ProtTools. The work was finished at the Computer Music Studio at National Taipei Teachers College on Feb. , 2003.
援用電腦技術 DSP技術: reverb, Granular Synthesis, Phase vocoding, Software used for the work includes SoundHack, Metasynth, Hyperprism, Audiomulch and ProtTools.
