Cyanotype (2024)

As reading creatures, we ingest words, and we are made of words. Especially, we may be explorers advancing through its pages, as well as the worms which devour the words and phrases in each page. In this context, this piece represents the invisible quest in wandering adrift which readers may virtually confronts inside the poetic short verses in Han Kang’s fiction 『The White Book』. Striving to create a surreal sonic world in which the real life and imaginary death coexist, this piece audibly considers the chain of metaphors that have described readers and their relationships to hidden text-that-is-the-world. In particular, this is an aural representation of a resonant space that evokes certain memories, ambiguous emotions, the contagiousness of fear based on the hidden tacit gestures in『The White Book』.

This work 'Mirage' focuses on the acoustic realization of fragmentary images of mirage on the bleak desert. Chasing the traces of virtual aural journey, a portion of sounds gradually converge into the variation form of Gayageum (Korean traditional string instrument) through the panning.

'Tag' for acousmatic represents the scattered pieces of memories just like tag on cyberspace. In daily routine, stuffed times and memories are stamped on our mind as individual 'tag' which consists of some words. However, it means the sort of stigma when we remind someone unconsciously, at the same time. In consequence, the whole process leads to crack between human relationships with misunderstanding from 'Tag'. This piece focuses on the gesture of moving sounds symbolize the direction of memories. Especially, the materials consisting of synthesized sounds and field recordings in this piece are mainly exposed in droned and fragmented format. As the work progresses, such sonic materials are gradually transformed by means of filtering, time stretch and panning effect editing. The vocal part of this piece is characterized by drone voices symbolizing the hidden emotions and desires of human beings. Such drone voices are composed of Korean traditional vocal style which expresses feelings of lost.
