【作品介紹】紀柏豪《朗誦者 2.0》

《朗誦者 2.0》是一場由行動裝置、語音助理、AI 衍生文本共同構成的分散式聲響表演。觀眾僅需透過行動裝置開啟網頁，即可加入這場由不同口音與節奏形塑的朗誦練習，將網路世界的連通性、同步能力及傳輸誤差轉化為可感知的聲音。

本作品的靈感源於 2000 年思科（Cisco）公司廣為人知的商業廣告「賦權互聯網世代」。當時，廣告中不同族裔的孩童不斷詢問：「你準備好了嗎」，傳遞出對高度互聯與全球化的美好願景。時至今日，語音助理應用表面上實現了跨國界的承諾，但這些合成聲音也逐漸從新奇走向日常，成為一種「慣習媒介」，並徘徊在過時的邊緣。

隨著越來越多裝置陸續加入朗誦，展演的同步性將受裝置性能與網路品質的影響，進而產生難以預測的節奏偏移與音訊錯位。作品將虛擬世界的文字、數據與行為軌跡，在實體空間中以交替誦讀具體化，凸顯技術理性與感知經驗間的縫隙。

RECEITER(s) 2.0 is a distributed sound performance composed of mobile devices, voice assistants, and AI-derived texts. Audiences simply open a webpage on their mobile device to join a recitation shaped by diverse accents and rhythms, transforming the internet’s connectivity, synchronization capabilities, and transmission errors into an audible experience.

The work draws inspiration from Cisco’s widely recognized 2000 commercial, “Empowering the Internet Generation,” in which children of various ethnicities repeatedly asked, “Are you ready?”, conveying an optimistic vision of global connectivity and digital empowerment. Today, voice assistants appear to fulfill that borderless promise—but the synthetic voices that once felt novel have become habitual media: embedded, standardized, and teetering on the edge of obsolescence.

As more devices join the recitation, differences in hardware and network quality introduce unpredictable shifts in rhythm and audio alignment. The work brings texts, data, and behavioral traces from cyberspace into physical space through distributed recitation, revealing gaps between technological rationality and sensory experience.
