Abstract:
This paper explores an interdisciplinary art project centered on the history of the sugar industry in Taiwan and Japan. The project integrates sound, imagery, and performance installations to create an immersive experience. Central to the study is Tale of Tale, the musical component of two interconnected works, Another Capital Beneath the Waves and Crystal Seeding, which blend electronic music with historical soundscapes and traditional performances. The project employs newly designed instruments, real-time electronic music, and immersive audio, recontextualizing traditional elements such as Taiwanese glove puppetry and Japanese Bunraku music, offering a rich, multi-layered historical and cultural experience.
