You Go / Single [2012]

Uns-Apparatus [2013]
for brass quintet
Ensemble Apparat

Being part of my "apparatus" series, Uns-Apparatus is concerned with creating a sound-body and a bodily sound. However, its bodily condition is extremely volatile, as if shape-shifting, involuntarily. The protean body may at one moment attain a manageable form, only to bud an unwieldy appendageal growth the next. [Imagine your body. Now imagine that your arm, or a single toe, is suddenly ten times its size.] The instruments themselves are connective tissues, constantly forming and reforming their collagenous coupling to one another as subcutaneous organs comprised of tendrils and dendrites. They are mutating bodies within the mutating body. [Imagine your body. Now imagine that your lungs, a single lung, or one chamber of the heart, or just your internal carotid artery, swells up to twenty times its size.] The skin does not break; it bulges.

Uns-Apparatus [2013]

This Azure Day by Seo Jung-ju (trans. Chae-Pyong Song and Anne Rashid)

On this blindingly azure day,
let us long for those we miss.

There, where autumn flowers sit,
green has given in to red.

Let the snow fall.
Let spring return.

What if you are alive when I die?
What if I am alive when you die?

On this blindingly azure day,
let us long for those we miss.

푸르른 날/서정주(1915~2000)

눈이 부시게 푸르른 날은
그리운 사람을 그리워하자.

저기 저기 저, 가을 꽃 자리
초록이 지쳐 단풍 드는데

눈이 내리면 어이하리야
봄이 또 오면 어이하리야

내가 죽고서 네가 산다면!
네가 죽고서 내가 산다면?

눈이 부시게 푸르른 날은
그리운 사람을 그리워 하자.

azure day (푸르른 날)
