Twisted City Part 1 Project 2021 Xi Chen Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University | China "After silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music." Aldous HuxleyPost-punk music came into being in the 1970s which inherited the rebellious and fearless spirit of punk rock. With the special sound of synthesizer, post-punk music formed a kind of dark, gloomy experimental music style. Our world is in a stage of prosperity and development, while technology brings us good life, the corresponding disadvantages also come with it. People who always lowers their heads to play with mobile phones, people who are immersed in mobile phones and networks all the time, and people who are impetuous to lose the spirit of seeking knowledge. The west coast of Portugal has the title of the end of the world, where the cliffs and the waves give it a natural silence. Post-punk music is like a silent whisper, a mechanical accusation of the absurdity of the ideal state.Are we really going to be ruined by the things we love?Dystopia is not against utopia, but the opposite of utopia. That is a world which has a vicious circle of extremes and darkness. Here is the silent coast of the artist, a wilderness away from the common world, but also a paradise to escape the entertainment society. So can we then argue that the Tower of Babel, constructed out of entertainment to control public consciousness, is a Dystopia? Xi Chen Tutor(s) Juan Carlos Dall'Asta
