❖ Our Life is like Water.
We struggle to break through inner and outer self.

The different textures of "water" sound goes with the flow of the piano feeling, they were recorded in Iceland, with the water sound from Black Sand Beach, waterfalls, ice glacier, and improvised piano playing at the venue at KEX hostel.

This piece of music is made for my own solo improvised performance at Busan Shin Dance Theatre Korea on Apr27 2016 while being Artist in Residency.

I mix the music and have some idea, image, imagination and wanna truly express myself and feeling in the piece.

I feel very exciting and think it's one of my very important performance in my life. It's also a very great and important experience to feel my own music in a self dance performance. I never have a Dance performance before. It's a surprise for the top Dancers and Shin sensei. I requested a 10 minutes solo performance before the big improv with them and they don't even know i'll dance, more like Zen+Tai Chi plus emotional minimal movement. It's a surprise for them, and for myself as well, to overcome myself, to explore myself.

To feel how body flow with music, how sound inspire movement, how inner self and spirit express with body, soul and sound right at the moment, connecting space, time, universe and everything in the world.

Our Life is like Water.
We struggle to break through inner and outer self.

I'm shy and quiet since small and even now I'm not good at expressing myself orally or emotionally. 
I often feel language and text can't be totally accurate or fully express what it is. So many misunderstanding, guessing and hiding.

Music, Dance, Arts... Etc may be the only ways could truly express something beyond.

I deeply hope we can have more resonance, touching each others and uplift each other's spirit and life.

Time, space and physic are the limit of human and the world. 
But human being can get beyond it by spirit, or only by spirit.

Arts are the expression of spirit, naturally, truly, purely, artificially, extremely, beautifully, disgracefully or response to any stimulation by emotion, physics or materials.

As long as there is spirit in the art work there will be resonance, touch and inspiration.

Every performance is a chance to deeply face ourself for enlightenment.

Through arts and performance we connect and love each others.

創作意念：
曲詞以白先勇小說《玉卿嫂》為題，從三個小說人物容歌兒、玉卿嫂及慶生的角度勾勒愛情的三種面貌，啽囈情愛的騷動與殘忍。

穿透容歌兒的少年眼光，描畫對玉卿嫂的第一印象,啟竇同性愛慕的純真，為其一生噩夢埋下伏線。自甜入癡，玉卿嫂的吶喊帶出對愛情的執迷不歸，對應慶生在囚牢之中的呼求、掙脫的渴望，盡是無法挽回的悲劇。

六十年代的文學作品，隨著撲朔迷離的曲聲，宛如蛟龍，攪動人心最赤裸直白的徬徨。

好爽淨 好標緻 一頭烏油油頭髮挽了個髻兒 淨扮的鴨蛋臉
水秀的眼睛
一見玉卿嫂 心裡漸放晴
無知天真 糾纏慶生
我一看見他嘴唇上那轉柔得發軟的青鬍鬚就喜得難耐,
我忍不住伸出手去摸了一下他嘴上的軟毛毛。
揭開惡夢的恐怖
窺視原始的愛慕

*****

時間讓我們遇見 獨自在那 惡夢糾纏
忘了問你的心願 流浪在那 情慾深淵
誰說地久天長的誓言
惶惶惑惑 終不可見
誰說地久天長的誓言 風風火火 一語成讖
只要你不變,累死苦死,我都心甘情願。 只要你心裏有我,
我死也閉上眼睛了......

*****

懷滿玉軟香綿綿
怕你敬你欠卻愛念
囚鳥被困心生怨 愁意恨透 永望不穿
誰說地久天長的誓言 惶惶惑惑 終不可見
誰說地久天長的誓言 風風火火 一語成籤
你要管我 我就想避開你, 避的遠遠的。 求求你,不要再來抓死我了, 我受不了了

*****

多少夜晚 做著怪夢 夢見玉卿嫂貼著慶生 咬他的膀子 鮮紅的血 一滴一滴 流到慶生青白的肋上
