Lin-Chi-Wei
Biography(eng)
Born in Taipei ,1971 ,Lin Chi-Wei is a transdisciplinary artist who has received academic training in french literature, cultural anthropology and media art. Since the early 90s, Lin was involved in taiwanese counter-cultural scene , he was founding member of the noise band Z.S.L.O. and was responsible for the programming of various alternative art festivals. At the same period, Lin explored the realms of religious music and art through intense field researches (notably temple sculpture and taoist ritual). These experiences ,combined with his practices in noise performance and electronic music composition ,brought forth critical perspectives toward comtemporary art practices. Since 2004, Lin initiated the “Tape Music” series, or the later-called IDCM (Interhuman Dynamic Coordinated Models) , as a response to the subjects he pursued along the years , They are synchronous protocols which allow the individual autonomy in the forming of collective intelligence ,that leads to complex sound works.
Lin’s 350 page book: ”Beyond Sound Art – The Avant Garde, Sound Machine and the Modernity of Hearing” was published in 2012 ,in which he denied the term “Sound Art” ,and provided a holistic view blurring the boundary between human culture and technology.
Lin’s art works were showed in various biennales and museums including Tate Modern , Pompidou Center, PSA Shanghai along with other non-art sites such as local community, private residence, public school, factory, church, temple, bar and live house in different countries around the world. Lin Chiwei lives and works in Shanghai, Taipei and Paris
