Zhang Liming (aka Hitlike)
"A Gift of Dispair for My Friends" (2009)
Zhang Liming (aka Hitlike), born in Chifeng, Inner Mongolia, 1981, programmer, field-recordist, now living in Harbin, Northeast China.
He defines himself as a mere listener who, since 2002, occasionally creates field-recording based sound works that are concerned with acoustical textures and the meeting between the subject and environmental objects. As an unsociable person, he spends most of his time roaming the internet, through which he also releases his works.
In 2003, Zhang’s first soundscape album Summery Shuangjing Sound Sections, recorded in his hometown with a low-end mono cassette recorder, was released online. Later the same year he launched the Harbin Ice-breaking Social Organization with several friends to research and discuss any noteworthy events or issues in the art scene. After two further experimental net-releases and a part in the compilation The Sound of Silence (reconfiguration records), his debut CD in was released by Little Sound, China’s respected 3” CDR label, in 2006. The track Walking from this album was included in the China Power Station Part I exhibtion at Battersea Power Station, London, 2006.
Zhang have taken part in We-Need-Money-Not-Art, a translation workgroup for the new media art blog We-Make-Money-Not-Art, and he is also the founder of the Sound Art Forum at Douban.com
