Water
Eavesdrops, morning dew, tide, cascades
from the shower head……
Rapidly running,
Slowly dripping,
Loud as thunder,
Soft as murmur.
Each rhythm speaks, each timbre sounds out.

What make the sounds of water different?
Time? Place? Space? Its container or or the listener’s mood?

Space out from the Sound Scoop. Listen.
Is water all there is to the pier?

水之聲
簷前滴水、滾動的晨露、驚濤拍岸、自花灑頭飛瀉而下的自來水 ……
湍急的,
慢悠悠的,
有如猛雷貫耳，
又仿大珠小珠落玉盤,
淅淅瀝瀝滴滴答答潺潺淙淙沙沙汨汨,
聲聲不同、質感各異。

是什麼主導著水聲的層次及質感?
是時間?是環境?是空間?是其載體?還是聽者的心情?
步出聽閣,
何妨放耳漫聽,
觀塘碼頭,
是否只是水聲?
