The work is adapted from an allegorical short story—“A Bit Louder”（Neo Gao, 2023), with noise as the core topic and discusses the alienation of people as "social beings” in a fictionalized context.
By using symbolic metaphors, the story delineates the psychological process of schizophrenia of individuals in the ‘social machine’ through the lens of labour life, social relations, desires etc. The work translates literature text into cross-media interactive expression and depicts the heterotopia fable as real-time audiovisual performance.
Through real-time camera recording and program data tracking, the world is thus recognized as a noise-indexed reality, in which the images and sonic constituted corresponding relations. The work attempts to achieve a specific site where the corporal being might synchronized with space and noise flux by juxtapositioning with instrument performance.
