Performed on 18th Jan. 2008 in Taipei, Chambord
The performer lie down under the table and put his genital into the sex toy which is installed inside the hand drum, then gives instructions or lessons (using a microphone to avoid direct talking) of rhythmic pattern to the participant (spectator), so they do the erotic massage on the genital of the performer. The computer is used for mixing drumming sound while the action. Two cameras are also installed so they can both see each other's face indirectly. The installation is installed in a very small space in order to create a intimate atmosphere. low half of the artist’s body is exploded to the audience. The non-material things are keeping cycling through the installation, this makes mental or spirit and energy exchanging process. The pleasure of drumming and masturbating are both being used by a wasting-energy way to be had, in the desire having process we don’t need to calculate with mathematics, which are taken from the daily life experience. The artist’s mind is divided, to make the instruction, a lot of memory and mathematics thinking are needed, at the same time using the mix machine (this time is the computer) to create new music/ sound as the sensitive part of mind. The body obviously enjoys the pleasure, but at the same time kills the logic thinking. This is a traditional way of learning music, no music is written, only audio is directly analyzed and memorized. The sensitive and logical minds separation experience, is also inside the spirit of traditional art, especially music, it’s about the training of further ability, does not focus on the nearest and fastest result and whole body development.
