Once upon a time. 2012
Once upon a time
This work records how French language breaks and changes when it is conveyed by people who are not familiar with French.
Process of this work
1. I ask local people who can speak Japanese to listen to French words.
2. They dictate French sounds as exactly as possible.
3. They read their dictation.
4. The next person listens to the sounds on the voice recording in which the former person read their dictation.
It's like a broken phone (Arabic phone)
At that time, 202 persons participated in this experiment.
この作品はフランス語がフランス語にまったくなじみの無い人達を経由することでどのように変化していくのかを記録した作品。
制作手順
1. 現地の人にフランス語の文章を聞いてもらう。
2.どう聞こえたかメモしてもらう。
3.メモを音読してもらう。
4.次の人は前の人が話す「音」を聞いてメモをし、さらにそれを音読し・・・・。と伝言ゲームのように続けていく。
