Eine Schwingung entfaltet sich auf einer Saite, als Superposition verschiedener Schwingungsmoden, genannt Obertöne oder Teiltöne. Für mich hat der Klang einer Saite eine sphärische Dimension, die die bewegte Schwingung der Saite in ihrer Gestalt abstrahiert. Auf dieser Kugelfläche treffen sich Harmonik und Inharmonizität auf dem dreizehnten Partialton, und durch die Überlagerung der nebenläufigen Schwingungen entkeimt unberührt vertikal-horizontales Selbst, der Punkt, mehr Licht.

5) CHUNG Saehoon - Nebenwege (2018)
for a string instrument (viola version)

Christoven TAN (viola)

Watching the painting Hauptweg und Nebenwege (Highways and Byways, 1929) by Paul Klee (1879-1940), there are colors in each block, which look similar but are all different and vary continuously. These colors are irregular, mixed subtly, and have various forms on the wrinkly paper. If a yellow is beautiful or evokes some emotions for example, it may be because it has red and black in it. I asked and worked curiously, which time-form a yellow sound on a wrinkly paper can have, and what world it can open to us.

I composed with a restriction imposed to myself that the sound must always change. The change could be fast or slow, and another unintended change could happen in the process. What I expected was actually to meet these unintended changes. But ironically, this new world which I want to meet, might be actually what I already knew, and be intended to the direction; I might as well just stand and watch. And then I am curious again: where are these sideways going?
