疊錄 Overdubbing
雙頻道錄像裝置 two-channel video installation，11'，2011Chia-Wei Hsu partnered with the band "relax-ONE," filmed the rehearsal of the band "relax-ONE," and projected it on a double-sided screen to present the processes of the sight and sound prospectively. The projection used for this work is connected with the concept of off-screen. On the one hand, the artist shot the band rehearsing at the studio; on the other hand, the image of the recording engineer is shown. The audience can only see one side at a time instead of both sets. They have to walk around the projection to get the full picture. What is behind the image is a process of reemergence and production; at the same time, it is also a sculpture suspended in the air.
On display on site are some instruments and stage lightings, and playing in the background is pre-recorded music. However, what the musicians are playing on site are fake soundless instruments. The most interesting aspect is that we cannot see the music video on screen; instead, what is shown is the set where the music video was made. Presented to the audience is a visual setting that is quite bizarre, with soundless instruments and a performer with her mouth shut. In other words, it is an act of realistically portraying something imaginative.
許家維與「輕鬆玩」樂團合作，拍攝「輕鬆玩」樂團排練的場景，以正反投影呈現影像與聲音分開製作的過程；藝術家在這件作品中相當關心畫外場的概念，投影的其中一面是拍攝樂團在練團室的畫面，而另一面則是錄音師在錄音室的畫面。觀眾一次只能看到一個畫面，無法同時看到兩個畫面，必須繞著正反投影觀看才能獲得影像的全貌，了解影像生產的背後的再現與生產過程，同時它也像是懸掛在空中的雕塑。
展出現場舞台呈現的是一批以假亂真的演奏樂器，一堆舞台燈光的擺設，背景播放著事先錄好的樂音，但樂手在現場彈奏的卻是無聲的假樂器。真正有趣的地方是，我們無法在螢幕上看到音樂錄影帶，而是看到拍攝音樂錄影帶的一個現場。在此，觀眾感知到的真實情況是一個不可置信的視界—樂器無法發聲、演唱者雙唇緊閉；換言之，也就是一種想像敘事的真實呈現。
