Draft:
– Above are some drafts of my work on this topic. The Ouroboros is not only my inspiration but also the structure of my whole sound piece. Ouroboros is the form of the finishing snake, end to end, which means endless. I also want to make the structure in this way, which means continuation and it has its own way of circulating independently. This just like anima can not be created and can not be destroyed，It’s something that exists on its own.
– When I doing some research, I found that Norman, a psychologist, gave a meaning of Ouroboros which was called “pre-ego”. I got 2 explanations of ‘pre-ego” when I put this word in sound art. The first meaning is the sound you hear when you are unconscious, or when you are not conscious. The second is the sound heard in the womb.
– The sound heard in the womb: prenatal education music. Many people like to listen to Mozart’s music as fetal music. Most of Mozart’s music was fluid and cheerful. Mozart’s musical creation perfectly embodies Goethe’s thinking that “Art is nature and nature is art”.
– “Art is nature and nature is art”：When I close my eyes, I can hear the sound of the wind, dogs barking, people talking… These are all-natural sounds.
