方大同居家防疫催生宅這 床上拍封面

〔記者陽昕翰／台北報導〕金曲歌王方大同防疫期間在家當宅男，他催生出全新EP《宅這》，甚至連EP封面照都在家裡的床上拍攝，相當自律的他笑說：「在家感覺比在外面還忙，每天在家都有不同的schedule，自己規劃時間管理，什麼時候該做甚麼事，都先排定。」

方大同把宅在家的日常，包括聽歌、下麵與自身髮型當成靈感創作，愛吃麵的他寫出了新歌《麵麵》，透露平常連乾拌麵、陽春麵與炒麵都能獨立完成，唯獨擔擔麵比較不在行。

方大同下月將過37歲生日，他常被粉絲催婚，對於婚事淡然回：「不急不急，一切隨緣。」生日願望則是希望疫情早點過去，世界趕緊回復正常軌道。

Q&A with Khalil Fong 方大同: Amongst One Another, We Must Find Trust (Extract)

Q: You recently also released a quarantine EP “Home Sweet Home” just a few months back. Is all this creation and creative release happening in real time?

A: Yes. I’m just working on stuff constantly. I’m writing the next Emi story as well in my brain. It’s not ready yet for actual words until I can connect the dots mentally as a solid piece. I have these “idea trees” and the fruits have to ripen and the “season” needs to be right for me to make them cohesive.

Q: What do you hope to share with listeners through these very relevant releases that you’ve been putting out lately?

A: A cheesecake ; )

Q: We all face our own unique challenges during this time. What are some things that have helped you through this time?

A: Cooking and the creative process…and being detached from outcomes.

Q: You’ve done quite a few surprise releases over the past couple of months. What can we expect from you next?

A: I’m not sure yet but don’t have expectations because it might or might not be your thing. These days I’m very much about experimenting and exploring. Also pretty excited to soon get the new books to the kids who have been fans of the Emi The Dream Catcher series.

Always working between his own balance of contemplating and doing, Fong has clearly made the most of an unfortunate situation with his usual pragmatic attitude. With his lofty ideals it would be easy to pass him off just as an optimist, but this doesn’t give him enough credit for the change he’s enacted through his music and creative endeavours.

If we thought that the age of social change in music was dead, Fong shows us we are surely mistaken. For as Jazz legend Nina Simone says; “It is an artist’s duty to reflect the times”. And in this confusing age where authenticity is prized and cancel culture is at large; Fong is one of few who dares to speak up for what he believes in; and to dream farther than many of us have the capacity to see.

To continue creating for nothing more than the sake of creating and recording our experiences is an action that rings even more powerfully in times like this. To be the change you want to see, and to be the singular mover in a timeline filled with inactivity.

It would be inaccurate to label Khalil as just a prolific Mandopop singer, even though in many senses and to many people, that is primarily what he is. But armed with a heart open to all our differences and a unique sound that appeals to many of us no matter where we are on this earth, he is a true global citizen and world-class creative like no other.
