I thought I wanted to record the sounds of the old“Ice Room” (The name Bing Sutt in Cantonese literally means “ice room”.) It is a shop that sell soft drinks and ice cream, and was considered to be the predecessor of Hong Kong－style café cha chan ting. And then I noticed that there are no such plastic plates these days. They don’t appear in any restaurant. I really want to preserve their sounds — the texture that no other thing of today carries.

首先是想錄舊冰室聲音，然後又察覺到現在都沒了這種膠碟。這種膠碟幾近不會出現於現今普遍的餐室了吧，我很想留住它的聲音，那是現在的東西沒有的質感。
