Kaki King rocks out to "Playing with Pink Noise"

譯者: 張新永 Davidchang 審譯者: Zhu Jie

I was thinking about my place in the universe,

在童年時，我經常想到在宇宙中我是處在什麼地位，

and about my first thought about what infinity might mean,

以及我對 “無限” 含義。

when I was a child.

的初始想法

And I thought that if time could reach

我認為如果時間能夠

forwards and backwards infinitely,

向前後無限延伸，

doesn't that mean that

那是不是就意味著

every point in time is really infinitely small,

時間裡的每一點都無限地小？

and therefore somewhat meaningless.

因此，用點來看時間是沒有意義的

So we don't really have a place in the universe,

所以說，只要我們身處在時間線上， 我們在這宇宙

as far as on a time line.

中真的沒有什麼地位可言。

But nothing else does either.

不過其他的一切也是如此。

Therefore every moment really is the most important moment

因此，當下發生的其實都是最重要的

that's ever happened, including this moment right now.

包括現在這一時刻。

And so therefore this music you're about to hear

所以，你將要聽到的這段音樂

is maybe the most important music

可能也是你生命中

you'll ever hear in your life.

聽到的最重要的音樂。

(Laughter)

（笑聲）

(Applause)

（鼓掌）

(Applause)

（鼓掌）

Thank you.

謝謝。

(Applause)

（鼓掌）

(Applause)

（鼓掌）

For those of you who I'll be fortunate enough to meet afterwards,

要是我之後有幸再碰見你們中一些人，

you could please refrain from saying,

拜託千萬不要發出

"Oh my god, you're so much shorter in real life."

“天哪，你實際怎麼這麼矮！”的感嘆

(Laughter)

（笑聲）

Because it's like the stage is an optical illusion,

因為某些原因，

for some reason.

舞臺就像一個幻影。

(Laughter)

（笑聲）

Somewhat like the curving of the universe.

也像宇宙的曲線。

I don't know what it is. I get asked in interviews a lot,

我不知道那是什麼。我常常在做訪問時被問到：

"My god, you're guitars are so gigantic!"

“天哪，你的吉他怎麼這麼大！”

(Laughter)

（笑聲）

"You must get them custom made -- special, humongous guitars."

“這麼大而獨特的吉他，你一定是特別訂做的。”

(Laughter)

（笑聲）

(Applause)

（鼓掌）

Thank you very much.

謝謝你們。

(Applause)

（鼓掌）
