Visionary Ⅱ revise 鬱言師系列回顧 Ⅱ
VISIONARYⅡ / White Water Theatre / 2005

In a room that reeks of strong herbal smoke, the audience sees a hand from inside a window pressing the play button of a portable cassette player. A recorded junky-like narrator’s sound is heard. Lin Chi-Wei appears in an S&M suit with a mask on his head making strange gyrating movements with raised hands and waving body. The narrator talks about the failure of the previous night’s performance and promises an improved presentation tonight. Light bulb, sound recorder, electric chair is well designed to prevent the tragedy of Auschwitz happen again the narrator tells the audience, he is ready to “impress” the audience and bring them “to the new life”. One by one the audience finds the two bare bronze cables attached on their seat is actually an electric chair design and it is in fact not just a joke. Sopped the waving movements, Lin Chi-Wei takes off the mask then climbs on the ladder to switch on the central power supply which gives 3 electro-shocks to individual seats in the audience in the sudden darkness. Harsh white noise is heard after the final count down. When the lights are turned on again, Lin Chi-Wei appears in a suit and distributes dried plants in small zip-lock bags. (Text translated by Yeh-Wei-Li)
鬱言師二:錄影長度4分57秒,臨界點白水劇場,2005年
一隻手自黑暗中伸出,按下隨身聽播放鍵。林其蔚戴面具,著類似S/M之服裝出場,面對觀眾開始如水藻般地前後左右搖動,一個變態的錄音男聲,以仿彿克藥的聲音,以預言者之姿述說著前幾場演出的失敗,和今晚表演之必然成功;強調今天晚上的表演加上了愛迪生的發明-電燈泡、錄音機和電椅,修正後的表演將能給觀眾「真正的感動」。
隨著變態男聲的說明,觀眾們漸漸發現自己正坐在橫跨兩條裸銅線的電椅上,而這個表演竟然是為了「避免猶太人的悲劇重演」、「值回人生票價」的電擊教育。林其蔚取下面具,爬上梯子,手擎總電開關,在噪音大開之際熄燈並電擊觀眾數次。旋即重新以整齊裝束出現,發給每一個觀眾一包乾燥植物並結束表演。
