Black and white, water (transformation) and fire (creativity), earth and heaven, moon and sun, passive and active, feminine and masculine, sound and vision. Through the harmonious balancing of opposites, the concept of Yin and Yang considers universal existence as an inseparable and contradictory double-face to achieve its own balance. Yin and Yang is not meant to be perfect but meant to be whole. Departing from Taoism philosophy, a verb between Yin and Yang rethinks how ideology distorts the space of interpretation and how post-industrial society constructs normative perception in the everyday.
＃2
a verb between Yin and Yang
If Yang refers to symbolic stereotypes and order then Yin applies itself to an invisible chaos that runs beneath the surface. By presenting a site-specific sound installation, following a collaborative performance, and taking part in a participatory action, the core of this event turns on opening the Yin as a means to balance our predominantly Yang-infused life.
*The pronunciation of Yin in Chinese is the same as feminine.

陰性聲音是我的作品中一直在處理的藝術美學。陰性並非性別，而是採納道家的陰陽學說，探討宇宙需要的存在的循環，白天與夜晚，正與負，生（性）與死，鬧與靜，視覺與視覺之外，語言與聲響
人類擅常以機器追求速成高潮去萃取慾望，為求速度而暫停思考生命存在的本質。這就是陽盛陰衰的世界，人們不再休息。然而跑得再快，慾望無窮，生命卻總有限，而死亡會讓所有的追求靜止。
從失聲祭的聲音三部曲，到當代情色物件跳蛋作為媒介的聲的跳愛，或是以複雜猥褻的文本去重譯意識形態的國歌，我用聲音與身體探討後科技社會，我早已被消費商品的拜物情節訓練成陽性思維：追求高效率、高標準、高品質、高精準的價值運作，然而壓抑了不可見、未知、非模組、不可預測的陰性混沌生命，陰性聲音的創作以即興方式表演，透過限地製作，解構物件原本的象徵，並使表演者（我）不再有標準表演，讓表演失去娛樂的陽性價值，展現生命不可以演說的陰性魅力。
