About The Entry

The stage for HI WE1 is built around the core concept of “The Sound of Time.”

Inspired by cassette tapes, telephones, CDs, and vinyl records, these sound carriers from different eras hold memories of their respective generations, yet share a common visual language—circles and motion.

The circle represents the continuous cycle of time, while rotation symbolizes the ongoing intersection of the past, present, and future.

We transformed the moment when sound is activated into the scale of an entire stage. Through suspended circular structures and extended spatial pathways, Taipei Arena is reimagined as a giant music player.

The elongated LED runway serves as a stretched timeline, preserving traces of sounds left across different moments and places. Flowing in soft, curved forms, it connects memory, emotion, and time into a continuous narrative.

The past is preserved.

The present is heard.

The future continues to play.
