低頻音使人 fun (放)鬆,就是本裝置作品的主要理念。不論東西方,對「音樂治療」都有相當程度研究,東方有「五音(宮商角徵羽)通五臟(肝心脾肺腎)的醫療原理」一說,而西方也證實音樂療法比傳統治療快 4 至 8 倍。作品以「紓壓」為主要訴求,採「低頻」的聲響設計發展一壓控式的大型球體互動藝術裝置,透過互動者按壓區塊的不同可產生不同的音樂及燈光,嘗試給人紓壓的效果。

Low sound helps people relax, which is the main appeal of this installation. Music is one way to therapeutically relieve stress. In both the East and the West, there has been a considerable amount of research done on music therapy. In the East, there are medical principles related to the five traditional sounds of the pentatonic scale (Gong, Shang, Jue, Zhi, and Yi) which correspond to the five viscera organs (liver, heart, spleen, lung, kidney). In the West, research has proven that music therapy is four to eight times faster than traditional therapy. The design of this installation is based on the principle of stress relief – employing a low frequency sound design. When someone presses on different areas of the sphere, it produces different sounds and lights which have a stress relieving effect on the person.
