어느 날 전 세계 12개 지역에 외계 비행물체 셸이 동시다발로 출현한다. 450m에 달하는 거대 비행체가 가만히 서 있을 뿐 어떤 행동도 하지 않자 각국 정부는 각자의 방식으로 외계인과 접촉을 시작하지만, 완전히 다른 언어 체계 때문에 첫 단계부터 난항을 겪는다. 미국 정부의 요청을 받은 언어학자 루이스와 물리학자 이안은 말과 글이 통하지 않는 상황에서, 신체의 모든 기관과 감정을 이용해 미지의 생명체와 대화를 시도하고 서로의 문자를 배워나간다. 마침내 대화의 물꼬가 트이게 되지만 그때부터 루이스는 이해하기 어려운 환상을 연이어 보기 시작하는데...
The Great Silence focuses on the world’s largest single aperture radio telescope, located in Esperanza, Puerto Rico, which transmits and captures radio waves to and from the farthest edges of the universe. This site is also home to the last remaining wild population of endangered Puerto Rican parrots, Amazona vittata, who make their habitat in the surrounding Rio Abajo forest. Allora & Calzadilla collaborated with science fiction author Ted Chiang on a subtitled script that explores translation as a device to trace and ponder the irreducible gaps between living, nonliving, human, animal, technological, and cosmic actors. In the spirit of a fable, the subtitled story presents the bird’s observations on humans’ search for life outside this planet, while using the concept of vocal learning—something that both parrots and humans have in common—as a source of reflection upon acousmatic voices, ventriloquisms, and the vibrations that form the basis of speech and the universe itself.
