看張天雅的作品，首先注意到光。
她的鏡頭捕捉了滿溢照片的刺眼陽光。
似是一片迷霧，既蒼白又強烈，彷彿可以把甚麼都蒸發掉。
她的首個展覽透過攝影作品分享私密的感官記憶，
彷彿魚沉到水底觀看人間的視角，如夢幻一樣，
引領觀看的人悄悄離開這不完美、殘缺的現實。
－－陳志華

記憶到最後，就只剩下照片這麼淡。
創作的萌芽期，也是最堪細味的階段。
－－智海

大概是這樣開始的：	The story shall start like this:



小時候我都不多說話	when I was a kid, I didn’t talk much.
總是一個人玩	I used to play by myself,
但有許多許多奇怪美麗的幻想	with bunches of bizarre and beautiful fantasies.



每年夏天,媽媽也會把我送收到親戚家裡住	Every summer, mom sent me to a house of my relative,
那是在偏遠山上的一棟房子	which was in a mountain far far away.
有一個好大好大的私家遊泳池	A very big swimming pool fascinated me.
而我每天就在泳池底裡一直游	And I just kept swimming under the water.
我幻想其實也相信自己是一條魚	I dreamt of becoming a fish, I believed that I am really a fish.
相信自己是屬於大海的	I believed that I belong to the ocean.
只有一直游我才能找回自己記得自己	If I keep swimming and swimming, I could find myself, the true one.
渴望有天可以回到大海	I yearned to return to the ocean,
和我最愛的鯨魚共舞	swimming with my dearest whale.

生活在亞洲國際都會，我們每天置身於人多車多的鬧市，飽受繁忙擠塞的交通帶來的噪音干擾。2008年，環境保
護署一項研究指出香港現時的交通噪音問題滋擾超過一百萬名市民，而建築工程、通風系統、防盜警鐘及鄰里所發出不同程度砰砰、轟轟或刺耳的噪音亦影響著市民的生活。休憩公園的情況會較為理想嗎？事實上，香港中文大學2006年一項研究發現，本地有90 多個市區公園噪音水平極高，全部超出世界衛生組織建議的55 分貝標准，其中最為人熟悉維多利亞公園的平均噪音更達到81 分貝，令人有如置身繁忙的高速公路。我們的耳朵能逃得過噪音嗎？噪音會否一一蓋過那些我們喜愛的聲音？又有甚麼聲音將瀕臨絕種？

加拿大作曲家、教育家、作者及環境保護者 Murray Schafer 早在四十年前已經提出噪音對人的危害。他並不是提倡控制噪音，反而採取正面態度，鼓勵大家打開耳朵，發掘再次聆聽的樂趣。七月十八日是「世界聆聽日」，旨於提升大眾對環境聲音的關注及使用地境錄音（field-recording）的創意，同時鼓勵推行聲境教育及實踐。世界聆聽日為Murray Schafer 的出生日，以表示對這位聲境研究的先鋒者的尊重。他於七十年代發表書本 The Soundscape – Our Sonic Environment and The Tuning of the World (1977)，分享他對聲態學研究作出的種種判斷。他亦為 World Soundscape Project的創辦人，啟發了世界各地很多聲態學活動。此次讀書會正是「世界聆聽日」的最好準備活動，會中將由楊陽帶領讀者重溫此重要文本的精粹，歡迎任何關注聆聽人士參與！

而為嚮應世界聆聽日，本地慈善團體聲音掏腰包(soundpocket) 首度在本港舉辦《聽甚麼？》﹣為寧靜漫步及集聲
者（包括聲音藝術家、大學生、聲音設計和工程師等）的分享會。漫步由修頓球場開始，途中向公眾免費派發
Murray Schafer 的聆聽啟示，穿梭皇后大道東至灣仔適安街為終點。隨後，聲音藝術家 Sin:Ned (黃仲輝) 分享他多
年來個人珍藏的聲音，他認為「收集聲音就如我們以前喜愛集郵一樣」。另外幾位集聲者亦會跟大家分享他們「集郵簿」內的獨特聲音，他們喜愛集聲只因他們都同樣熱衷於聆聽。

The noise level in our city keeps rising in an unpredictable rate. A 2006 research by the Chinese University of Hong Kong shows that, the noise levels of more than 90 parks in our community are much higher than the standard level (55dB) suggested by the World Health Organization. The most well known Victoria Park even reaches a noise level of 50% higher than the standard. In 2008, an Environmental Protection Department report says, “Traffic noise is a major concern which affects more than one million people.” Noise might
even cause hearing loss, mental stress and irritation. Can we still hear our favorite sounds in this noise? What sounds are endangered?

The hazard of noise has long been identified by Canandian composer and environmentalist Murray Schafer. However, rather than championing noise abatement, he takes the positive approach: encouraging people to “clean their ears” and discover the joy of listening again. His work and call have since inspired acoustic ecology movements and artistic endeavors throughout the world. “World Listening Day“, also Schafer’s birthday, is a tribute to him for founding the Acoustic Ecology movement and the World Soundscape Project. On July 18, worldwide activities on listening take place to raise public awareness on our listening environment and to celebrate the creative exploration of field recording. (http://www.worldlisteningproject.org/?p=667) The upcoming book reading session would be a perfect preparatory exercise of “World Listening Day”. During the session, Dr Yeung will highlight the essence of this important text. we welcome all who care to listen.

Local sound art charity soundpocket celebrates the first World Listening Day in Hong Kong with one-day event Let’s Listen – a group of active and critical listeners (university students of sound art, sound designers and engineers, artists…etc) lead a walk for silence in Wanchai, while distributing short quotations from Schafer’s book. After the walk, sonic artist Sin:Ned (Dennis Wong Chung Fai) shares with the public for the first time his private sound collection. Sin:Ned’s interests range from improvisation, sound art, experimental music, and noise art to field recordings. He says, “Collecting sound is like people collecting stamps in the old days.” Other sound collectors also share their favorite sound from their “stamp album” with Sin:Ned.
