★ 另一個令我印象深刻的地方，是”聲波”的視覺化、劇場化。我們看多了絢麗燈光與震耳音效，然而這次卻”看”到了”聲音”。─觀眾迴響

《強力斷電》以「科技」與「溫度」（自然）為探討議題核心，以表演表達共同創作者的觀察和省思。作品發想源自於實驗噪音藝術家在進行噪音表演時，往往以最低限度的細微動作操縱電腦及合成器，其身體語彙與製造出的暴烈聲響呈現出極大的斷裂感，宛如內在能量豐沛，但只憑藉網路與外界聯繫的宅居一族。《強力斷電》以簡約但富含深意的科技概念，結合聲音藝術及演員與舞者的肢體，描繪這個看似井然有序，實則暗潮洶湧的便利世代崩裂實景。

★ What impresses me the most is the visualization and theaterization of “sound waves”. We have often experienced dazzling lights and ear-piercing music, but this time, we do get to “see” the “sound”. ─ Audience feedbacks

With “technology” (human civilization) and “temperature” (nature) as its core subjects, Force Quit focuses on staged interdisciplinary performance to express the collaborators’ observation and reflection on above themes. Inspired by the performance characteristics of experimental noise artists, Force Quit takes the disjunction between the body languages (their tendencies to operate computers and synthesizers with minimal movements) and fierce sounds created, as the metaphor of those “otakus” who have abundant inner energy and yet solely rely on the internet to connect with the others. Employing a simple-tech concept with deep meaning and combining sound artists and physiques of actors and dancers, Force Quit depicts the fracture of this convenient generation with an orderly outlook and yet disturbing in essence.
