The name of our theme is “Anima” which is derived from Latin. At first, for some personal reason, I misread the name of the theme, thinking it was “continuation”. The good news is that my overall source of inspiration is the same. So I don’t have to update my whole draft.
Anima：which originates from Latin, used to describe ideas such as breath, soul, spirit, or vital force, which links to the idea that energy can neither be created nor destroyed; only be transferred or changed from one form to another. There’s an element of mystery.
Thinking:
I mentioned in my blog about Echo Ho at the beginning. I want to use Guqin to finish my project. The story of this project is about sacrifice. I couldn’t find the sound piece of guqin in the software, so I contacted my friend who is studying music in China.
However, when I got the sound piece was late and it was only a few days before the deadline, I try to add the sound piece. Finally, I gave up. I hope it can be used in the next project.
Thinking:
While we’re waiting for the recording of Guqin I was still thinking about the theme. Then I find Ouroboros, it was originating in ancient Egyptian iconography and the moving action of snakes symbolizes the transmigration of the soul.
Ouroboros and Anima both are mysterious and have explanations of the soul and some spirits. I combined the Mobius ring and the Ouroboros, so the Ouroboros looks like “♾️” which a symbol in mathematics called infinite. There’s a sense of inexhaustibility.
The two above are my favorite music. I want to write something similar, but I haven’t figured out how to combine them with the theme。
These two videos have many different music types. The video above, the music shows on 15 ’49 and 24′ 17, is the style I like. There are people’s sounds in 24 ’17 seconds, but it blends in with the music and I think it’s interesting.
