My work’s title 『Anattā』is Buddhist terminology. And It’s translated “non-self” in English. Non-self means that there is no unchanging , permanent self , soul , or essence in phenomena. I tracked down the identity of sound in the thought of non-self. I expressed sound’s power and the effects of sound on human in this work.
Sound is an auditory phenomenon caused by fluctuation of space. Therefore sound and space have a close relation.
The sound of constructed space and materials militates human spirit that we can’t feel with just the five senses. There , you can hear the sound of mass. There , you can see the fluctuation of space.
