In addition to the traditional performance methods, there are countless innovative productions combined with other types of art. Although in the classification of performing arts, they are collectively referred to as "crossover", there are many musicians who take the essence of music as the core, and explore interdisciplinary artistic styles and expression methods that connect with the future. For example, Ju Percussion Group Laboratory leads the new generation of percussionists to bravely explore new fields. Pianist LU Chia-hui, who has won many international awards, uses music as a medium to demonstrate her high talent in the fusion of visual arts and performing arts. Composer CHEN Chia-hui uses science and technology to perform miracles for sound art. 2022 TMS FORUM discusses the trend and path of new techniques in the future of music art through the sharing and dialogue of various artists.

The Multiverse of Technology and Performance

In recent years, pianist LU Chia-hui started from piano performance, extended her artistic tentacles, combined painting, drama, interactive technology, sound technology and video art, and successively released “Butterfly Orchid”, “Amor”, “Impression of Taiwan”, “Beauty of Taiwan”, “Obsession” and other new media works that have won numerous awards, and “Sacred Garden” shone at the Ars Electronica Festival Linz in Austria in 2021. LU Chia-hui is not limited to performances but continues to focus on performances and unleashes the artistic energy that transcends the field. From a composer with "traditional" techniques to a magician who uses sound technology, from a creator to a curator, CHEN Chia-hui will talk with LU Chia-hui about the practice and approach of technology and artistic goals, and various trade-offs and balances when facing the vast fields of technology and art presentation.
