【Sound art】

Yang, Li-Wei【noise nature】

The objective of this artwork is to examine the relationship between noise and natural soundscape. Through manually-produced sounds, the intention is to avert the psychological awareness difference between noise and natural soundscape, so that noise transforms into an integral part of the natural sounds cape.Generally speaking, based on the listener’s experience of sound, by listening to the sound of nature or sound caused by natural phenomenon, he/she will recognize that this is part of the natural sounds cape. Once the sounds are altered, the noise characteristics will be highlighted, thereby transforming into unnatural sounds. On the other hand, when artificial noise and natural sounds are juxtaposed, interlaced or amalgamated, an unknown sound of a certain species of organism or a certain type of natural phenomenon will be produced, thereby blending into nature.
