Kuo Chih-Ting, Cloud Wang: Storyteller

1 episode in total. (Duration: 15 minutes)

From the perspective of Benjamin, the demise of storytelling comes from the depreciation of experience exchange. The reason is that there is a large amount of circulating news and messages. Under the rapid transmission of information with various media nowadays, the “storyteller” disappears into the overflowing message. This work tries to return to the auditory existence of the human speaking voice. The content draws away from the identifiable facts/events and interpretations, re-constructing the narrative by using only connectives and prepositions and restores the flow of one’s inner emotion. Through the verbal and auditory nature of broadcasting, we want to experiment whether can this create a message of pure emotional experience and be received by the audiences.
