蓺術作品的光韻
本雅明之光韻
在《機械複製時代的藝術作品》中，本雅明提到：
Even the most perfect reproduction of a work of art is lacking in one element: its presence in time and space, its unique existence at the place where it happens to be. … Above all, it enables the original to meet the beholder halfway, be it in the form of a photograph or a phonograph record. The cathedral leaves its locale to be received in the studio of a lover of art; the choral production, performed in an auditorium or in the open air, resounds in the drawing room. … that which withers in the age of mechanical reproduction is the aura of the work of art.
即使在最完美的蓺術複製品中也會缺少一種成分：蓺術品的即時即地性，即它在問世地點的獨一無二性。 ⋯⋯最重要的是，不管它是以照片的形式出現，還是以留聲機唱片的形式出現，它都使原作能隨時爲人所欣賞。大教堂挪了位置是爲了在蓺術愛好者的工作室里能被人觀賞；在音樂廳或露天演奏的合唱作品，在臥室里也能再度聴見。 ⋯⋯在對蓺術作品的機械複製時代凋謝的東西就是蓺術品的光韻。
切利比達克拒絕錄制唱片
For most of his career, Celibidache refused to make recordings, comparing them to “going to bed with a picture of Brigitte Bardot.” Instead, Celibidache focused on creating, during each concert, the optimal conditions for what he called “a transcendent experience.” That particular transcendent experience, according to Celibidache could not be achieved by listening to recorded music. As he explained, “the acoustic space in which one hears a concert directly affects the likelihood of the emergence of his sought-after transcendent experience. The acoustic space within which one hears a recording of one of his performances, on the other hand, has no impact on the performance, as it is impossible for the acoustic features of that space to stimulate musicians to play slower or faster.” —*On This Day 28 June: Sergiu Celibidache Was Born, Georg Predota
在職業生涯的大部分時間裏，指揮家切利比達克拒絕錄制唱片，他將錄制比作「與碧姬·芭杜的照片睡覚」1。相反，切利比達凱專注於在每次音樂會中創造他所稱的「超凡體驗」的最佳條件。根據切利比達凱的說法，這種特殊的超凡體驗是無法通過聆聽唱片獲得的。他解釋說：「人們聆聽音樂會時所処的聲學空間直接影響他所追求的超凡體驗出現的可能性。而聆聽他指揮表演的錄音時所處的聲學空間對他指揮沒有任何影響，因為那個空間的聲學特性不可能刺激音樂家演奏的快慢。」
The Legend of 1900
1900在錄製完唱片後，Max說他可以下船追求名利了，製作人說有了唱片，不用下船也能得到一切。可當1900在聽到自己演奏的音樂从留聲機裏而非鋼琴中放出，感到無比驚愕的同時，回應那位製作人說：
我不會讓我的音樂離開我的。 I won’t let my music go anywhere without me.
當他準備把唱片贈予給他靈感的那位女孩，但沒能成功之後，便把唱片掰成碎片。
一期一会 Ichi-go ichi-e
《山上宗二記》中的〈茶湯者覺悟十躰〉記載千利休的話：
自入巷至出巷，須視若一期一度之會，敬畏亭主。世間雜談，無用也。
碧姬·芭杜 Brigitte Bardot, 法国电影女明星，昵称“BB”。与玛丽莲·梦露並稱西方流行文化性感象徵，被視爲性解放的代表人物之一。↩︎
