In this work, I tried to convey various stories from the past to the present through series of sound pieces. The song was a combination of sound pieces. They were recorded and created, then composed by myself.

 

The work represents the way of life of human beings from the past to present. I used the sound pieces that symbolized each era. By listening, the audiences will get to take a journey back through time from the Middle ages then slowly evolving back to the present.

 

In the Middle Ages, there were many wars, thus you will hear the sound of forging. The sound was intended to represent swordmanship and wars back then.

 

In each period, the listeners would exprience the differences of sound that signified each era. the sound characteristics begin to change - from the sound of sword fights to the sound of gun fights.

 

As from my personal interpretation, human have always been at wars. Human beings are full of greed. That is the reason why human are always fighting for resources. I would like to present this fact in the work.

 

Even after the end of the World War II, human were fighting through economics and technology competitions. As the development of technology leaped forward, the listeners would notice the ever-changing nature of sound- for example The sound of counting money.

 

In the last part, I reduced the image to a smaller size, so that we feel a little closer. The part was intended to present Today’s chaostic situations.

 

Toward the end, I would like to ask the listeners to reflect on what we have done, and what we learned from the past. I hope that this is an opportunity for us to reflect on what would happen in the end, what we all had been through, what we have got, and how happy/ sad we had been.

 

I do not want to spoil this by explaining too much. I would like to invite the listeners to take this adventure together to observe and experience the differences by themselves If you have any ideas or doubt, please share them with us in the comment section.

 

Finally, the world continues to spin and develop. Will peace be restored, or if will there ever be peace?
