3 blue people

Blue Man Group is a creative group consisting of three people wearing plastic balaclavas covered in blue paint and dressed in black. They produce exciting and revolutionary work in a variety of media. Blue Man Group is best known for its award-winning theater productions. They even developed a set of musical instruments made of everyday materials, such as PVC pipes, Tubulum, Airpoles, thumping pianos, and rocking gongs, which can make interesting noises.

When I watched their performance in New York, what impressed me most was their visual manipulation. The visual impression conveyed by the Blue Man alone is already strong, coupled with the colorful black light effects, the direct hand-held camera that transmits the images of the audience to the big screen on the stage, the paint flying in the air... the visual and nonsensical behavior brought about Surprises are often unexpected. As for the music itself, it doesn’t leave a deep impression.

I remember seeing a Blue Man concert on the Internet a while ago. They used a lot of multimedia to create a huge amount of visual and auditory sensory stimulation, especially their homemade musical instruments, which were like music from the future. It's machine-like and will definitely bring great entertainment to the performance.

But I think the most interesting thing here comes from these three blue men with no expressions. It is because of the blue bald heads with neutral expressions that all their actions bring out a It's a special kind of fun. It's obvious that they are trying to tease the audience, but it also seems that they hope to achieve the effect of "communication" with the audience through these actions.

Perhaps they set the "Blue Men" as aliens from the "Blue Star". Because they cannot communicate through language, they have to use many special behaviors to convey their thoughts. This is also the reason for the success of Blue Man. The element of "language" no longer exists, and naturally all performances are cross-language; its performances themselves do not belong to any traditional culture, but belong to "Blue Man Culture". Therefore, it naturally transcends cultural limitations.

In the wild world, a combination like Blue Man appears, which brings the wildness to a certain extreme, allowing the audience to freely escape the real world and fly into the magical world of Blue Man when watching the performance. inside.

The Blue Man Group is widely loved in this world. In addition to cross-language and cross-culture, their unique and easy-to-recognize visual impression also creates their unique status. Even if the Red Man Group and Yellow Man Group appear in the future, Neither the human group, nor the white group, nor the rainbow group can replace the blue man.
