A fragmented sound clip on a mobile phone contains a recording of a piece of music played by a busker on the metro in Paris. When the recording was made, the air was muggy in the gloomy compartment of the train; people on the train were standing on their own, gazing at each other indifferently. All of a sudden, the music echoed through the carriage and seemed to tear through the air and the people on board; the music shone into everyone’s hearts, with no way out. The sound of music mixed together with the noise of different languages, the environment and the air of the carriage, broken by the movement of the train. Because I hesitated for an instant, I didn’t record the beginning of the tune. I have tried to imagine and remember that moment, and have tried to recreate it by manipulating the recording and making it into a loop.

Text by Cheng Ran

Cheng Ran “EVERYTHING HAS ITS TIME”

一段不完整的手机录音，记录了一个流浪艺人在巴黎地铁上演奏音乐

的声音片断。在这段被记录下的时间中，闷热阴暗的车厢中空气混浊，

乘客们各自站立、漠然对视。突然响起的旋律，仿佛撕开空气和人群，

声音在每个人的心中闪烁，无法躲避；音乐之声混杂在语言、环境和空

气的噪音中，停留，停留，随即伴随地铁的运行一起消失。由于片刻的

迟疑，我没能录下这旋律的开始。我试图去想象和回忆当时的状态，通

过录音棚中的制作去模拟还原这段不完整的旋律。这段声音也变成了

一个首尾相连的循环。
