Description
This is a work that explores the phonetic writing of Chinese characters. The artist made a “voice-copying” to the Diamond Sūtra by using Apple input method with voice recognition.
The textual confusion caused by this voice-copying represents a kind of “happening”. With the basic understanding that “Chinese pinyin and even phonetics have caused an irreversible detachment of the phonetic and morphological patterns of Chinese characters”, the artist shows a playful exploration on the future of Chinese character writing.

作品简介
本作品探讨了汉字语音书写。艺术家用 Apple 语音输入法对《金刚般若波罗蜜经》進行语音抄经。此抄经造成的文本混乱是纯粹偶发。艺术家基于「拼音乃至语音输入造成汉字字音字型不可逆的剥离」的认识,对未來汉字书写展开一串戏谑式的探討。
