開放式關係：原創多媒體音樂作品及詮釋

Abstract

「開放式關係」意指人們在一種關係模式中，允許自己或對方與其他人亦建立類似模式關係之行為。這種「關係」通常意指著在親密關係，也就是戀愛或婚姻中，允許另一半與他人合意性交。《開放式關係》一曲即為筆者個人自我實踐，運用自身對於性開放的實踐經驗，意圖凸顯社會「對『性』惟恐避之不及，並進而汙名化所有與性有關事物」的態度。本文即為該原創多媒體音樂作品自發想、創作理念、素材選擇至手法運用之敘述與詮釋。 本曲以數字語言為音型設計，同時使用開放曲式與輪旋曲式，並以16孔半音階口琴作為唯一器樂，穿插一段時事與法律的預置電聲，而後由口琴與SuperCollider軟體製作之互動程式即時演出。本文並對半音階口琴與SuperCollider軟體於本曲中之應用做介紹。

“Open relationship” refers to allowing members in a relationship to create the same kind of relationship with outsiders, usually in a romantic or sexual suggestion. I use the idiom, which is feared and stigmatized by the masses, as the title of my multimedia musical composition drawing materials from my experiences as a practitioner of open relationship. This article is the commentary and interpretation of this composition, including exploration of several compositional ideas and analysis of musical form. In the beginning of this composition, different numeric codes are used as arrangement of melodic design, the rondo form as the basis of open form, and a 16-hole chromatic harmonica as the only acoustic instrument. In the middle section, a solo part of pre-recorded tape music made of diverse news clips and jural interpretations are amplified in stereo. In the final, a real-time programmed interaction in SuperCollider describes the open relationship between the acoustic harmonica and synthesized sound from computer. The application of chromatic harmonica and SuperCollider is also briefly introduced in this article.
