There’s something I want to share with you. [...] Have you heard the story that goes… [...] I think so, but when I was very young. But it’s not true, isn’t it? Who would bury an living human just to construct the city pillar in the beginning of the Rattanakosin era? [...] But if you look at what our country is going through, it seems anything is possible. [...] Oh, hello. [...] eh, is this your second time visiting this exhibition? Loving it much? ((laughter)) [...] This time I meant to come to this room. Last time to the other room. ((the door opens)) [...] These days it’s a bit crowded, but as you can see, with more people, they have to be creative with management. We are afraid of catching the virus, and I guess, they are afraid of catching it from us just the same, so there’s a limit to how many visitors can enter each round [...] That book [Dóng] 
- I see it as a field note of an electronic musician who did fieldwork with the indigenous people. [...] He also posted two QR codes of music from the project where he reinterpreted indigenous music. Try scanning them. [...] The book is divided into three main parts. The part on the left is working notes, and inside is writings by an anthropologist on their observations of this indigenous group, the youth’s urban migration in search for better job opportunities, the group’s culture, and also pictures [...] The said area is an area of the ethnic group 侗 Dòng [...] Yes, one of the ethnic group living in the Southwestern part of China (in Guìzhōu) [...] If you are interested in music and in sounds, I recommend this corner [...] Ah...yes they are a group that we collaborated with this past week. Actually, the band Scoutland has performed at the parking lot here, as part of an activity in the BKKABF CO-OP 2020 last year [...] Here’s his other band called Hariguem Zaboy that started in his high school years [...] As for his cassette format, it was something that came up during the recording, when he went back to record sounds with cassettes [...] It has its charms. I could imagine. Some people like sounds from vinyl, some like it loud from speakers, and some like the sounds from the cassettes [...] Actually here we work a lot with sounds as well. Like right now in this room there are sounds from both sides, right? ((laughter)) {meaning the sounds from the playlist ‘Nowhere Special Radio’ curated by Tae-Parvit for his exhibition Nowhere Special (2021) where the selection of songs changed every Friday. Another sound is from the video A room, where they are COEVALs (2021) by Nawin Nuthong} [...] I remembered there was a rap concert here too [...] Yes, that was during the opening of the exhibition Memory Machine by Balm (Dhanut Tungsuwan). Many artists like YOUNGBONG, SUNNYBONE, 1MILL, FIIXED came to perform [...] Or also during this publishing project [Feeling Towards the Sun] 
, there was a DJ set on the day of the book launch [...] This one also worked with musicians? [...] Yes, Pete (Thanart Rasanon) is a musician and DJ who has worked with the gallery several times. In 2017 for Metaphors , another music activity for the work of P’Joei Apichatpong, and the most recent was for ‘Nowhere Special Radio’ during Tae-Parvit’s last set [...] Oh, another thing, he also came in to discuss collaboration among musicians during the political and social crisis in [BOOKMARK MAGAZINE] Issue 10. For that issue, we also made podcasts [...] Ah so he wrote the narratives, and the pictures were form Tae-Parvit, right? Let me sit down and read [...] Too bad I didn’t come that day [...]
