Patterned information has dominated our daily life - TikTok music, superhero films, internet advertisements, etc. Radio Patterns explores the possibility of generative creativity using heavily modulated and distorted patterned information. The sound art is composed of texts from randomized cosmetic ads as well as texts from the prologue of the opera Pagliacci. The texts from cosmetic ads symbolize patterned information in our life. By using multiple modulation techniques, the spoken texts gradually transform into a cluster of electronic sounds and human speech similar to radio noise. The texts from Pagliacci serve as a sarcastic reflection of the previous text, pointing out that "art is derived from real life" in an overly dramatic and contrasting way.
This piece also utilizes the concept of “spoken words are articulated sounds.” By modulating the rhythm and the pitch contour of the spoken words, a new kind of spoken language is formed.
