一個幽靈,九0年代的幽靈,在台北上空游蕩。無主可依,無家可歸,過往已遭抹去,未來不見去路。這是恐怖騷音之屋最後鬥爭極度嚴峻的一刻。
二號公寓不再、ROXY不再、甜蜜蜜不再,台北伏爾泰咖啡廳俱已不存。因緣際會中,深藏於「林其蔚」新生南路老家寓所的「恐怖騷音之屋」,奇蹟般地保存迄今,其光景、其氛圍,猶如當年絲毫未易。
自1989年學運伊始,這裡曾經是「零與聲音解放組織」、「甜蜜蜜」、「破爛節系列」等地下活動之祕密工作室、儲藏庫以及淫亂轟趴所:其辦公桌上進行著各項破壞計劃、其文件櫃內收藏著各式恐怖活動器材與相關檔案、其床鋪係國際噪音人之臨時棲所。在十年鏖戰之後,1998年「林其蔚」底入伍中止了這裡的一切活動,自此「恐怖騷音之屋」閉門封存迄今。
九年之後,恐怖騷音之屋重啟大門。茫然四顧,風景移易,人事無常,唯土地懸浮,孤魂無主,絲毫未易。 最為駭人的是:過去鮮血班班的戰場不但不曾留下絲毫痕跡氣味,吋草不生的農地更早已變更使用成為大賣場預定地。
「恐怖騷音之屋」的小門遂在無聲息中開始撕裂、延展、擴大,直到那七月八日凌晨決定性的一刻,所有九O年代的內臟血肉一骨碌嘔吐而出,破裂的口子不斷向外擴張,如一只無限外翻的巨大塑膠袋,將當下的一切反向包覆其內-如是曾經屬於「林其蔚」個人財產的「恐怖騷音之屋」移置到了北美館,以傲慢的姿態,進行專屬於它的最後一場鬥爭-將自己空蕩的房間以一元起標方式網拍,展期結束之日,一度曾為「林其蔚」私藏之「恐怖騷音之屋」即將在此終結,依附其上的幽靈,即將轉世投向全新的人生-抑或在砰然死寂中加入孤魂聯盟的行列。
這個一度矯揉矜持,灑狗血賣風情的恐怖騷音之屋,
即將成為重寫台灣前衛藝術歷史之太廟寶剎?
抑或流標棄世徒然權充木柵垃圾山泥塗一角?
請注意,您的注視或忽視,您的深情投標或不屑一顧,都即將改寫歷史!
這是歷史上第一次,您不但可以親自參與台灣前衛藝術史之建構,更可以親身擁有它 - 越此一役,再無前路!
因為這就是恐怖騷音之屋的最後鬥爭。
The Last Strike of Lin-Chi-Wei's Noise House
The phantom. Refused by its motherland, the doomed phantom from the 90s still wonders around into another dark night of Taipei. It is about to lose its last shelter; its past is eliminated, fading in frozen time. Lin-Chi-Wei’s Noise House is now roaring its ultimate final strike—your attention is requested at this crucial twist of time!
Apartment No. 2 is gone. ROXY, Sickly Sweet Café and all the Café Voltaire in Taipei are gone. Yet the “Noise House” located in Lin-Chi-Wei’s previous home in Xin-Shen South Road mysteriously and miraculously survives. The aura and the mise en scène concealed in this room remain as how they ever were as if not counting any movement of time.
Since the Student Revolt [of Taiwan] in 1989, the room had been the secret working base, the storage and the meeting venue for underground events of “Zero and Sound Liberation Organization”, “Sickly Sweetly Café”, “Broken Life Festival” and etc. All kinds of destroying schemes were produced on its used-to-be busy desk, equipments and documents of various events and terrorist actions were stored and filed in its cabinets, and the bed was once served as a temporary home to many visiting international noise artists. The room was finally closed down in 1998 when Lin-Chi-Wei started his military service after a decade’s operation, and it was locked out from the public ever since.
Another nine years have passed, and the “Noise House” reopens its door. Nevertheless, everything has not been the same except this room: the “Noise House” becomes a lonely phantom without a home. The most horrifying fact is that the blood that shed in the battlefield of the 90s could be traced no more, and the land is now clean, hardened and infertile—ready for a shopping mall construction.
Consequently, the small door of the “Noise House” voicelessly begins to lacerate, extend and expand the room itself. Not until the determining moment in July 8 will all of its viscera and veins of the era of the 90s be thrown out, the cut wound stretching outward as an enormous plastic bag turning inside out. The present status of reality will come to wrap the room instead; every private possession of Lin-Chi-Wei’s Noise House will be re-located in the Taipei Fine Arts Museum. Almost in an arrogant manner, it yells for its last strike: the emptied room will be auctioned on eBay at the starting bid zero. When this strike ends in September 3, the “Noise House” once owned by Lin-Chi-Wei will then be terminated. The phantom of the “Noise House” will either start its incarnation in the afterlife, or march with the ghost ally in deadly silence.
Is the “Noise House” with its passé glory
Going to rewrite the grass-root avant-garde art history of Taiwan,
Or to be discarded as a corner of debris under the Muzha dump (a garbage mountain of Taipei)?
Please Note: your attention or ignorance, your affectionate bidding action or aversion will rewrite history. Hereby the “Noise House” states the significance of itself again: this is the first time in history that you could take part in the narrative of Taiwanese avant-garde art history, and you could even own it as your private property—there will have no ground ahead beyond this final act!
The Last Strike of Lin-Chi-Wei’s Noise House it is.
