FEN (Far East Network) is:
Otomo Yoshihide 大友良英 (Japan)
Ryu Hankil 柳漢吉 (South Korea)
Yan Jun 顏峻 (China)
Yuen Chee Wai 袁志偉 (Singapore)
A live recording in Nijō Castle (二条城, built in the 17th century), Kyoto, Japan, 2017.
這個演出是一系列官方和半官方的活動中的一個。因為大友良英的關系，FEN有機會參加一些能夠報銷國際路費的活動，每次都會借機再進行巡演或者做別的活動，這次也不例外，京都的演出之後，又去了其他城市巡演。雖說最終的開銷只是勉強持平，但還是挺開心的。今天豪華接待，明天朋克占屋，巡演總是這樣。這個演出的空間是二條城里面，算是文物建築了吧，聲學也比較特別。當年的將軍為防刺客，還修了一種踩上去會鳥叫一般發生的地板，那個我們也去踩了，真的像鳥叫。不過就不是演出空間了。

FEN (Far East Network) is an improvised music project group made up of musicians from different parts of Asia. The quartet comprises Otomo Yoshihide (Japan), Ryu Hankil (Korea), Yan Jun (China) and Yuen Chee Wai (Singapore). FEN was started by globally renowned musician Otomo Yoshihide and it made its debut 2008 at MIMI Festival in Marseilles, France. Following its debut, FEN has performed extensively throughout Europe and all across Asia.
Each member is an artist who works individually in experimental music scene in his respective country. Each has been supporting each other s activities by organizing concerts in his own country, and this relationship became the motivation to form FEN.
FEN pursues "performing together by improvisation" as a method and "music without ends" as an outcome. While FEN is an improvisational music group it is at the same time an idea or concept which hopes to maintain unique aesthetics and sustainable relationships in diverse Asian cultures. FEN s activities explore aesthetic possibilities in new forms of music which are different from the Western world. FEN s goals are to become a foundation and to organize diverse meetings to support other sustainable networks and cultural exchanges among many other experimental musicians and artists in and throughout Asia. FEN further hopes to work with musicians and artists of other disciplines (traditional and contemporary) from all across Asia.
