New media and Sound Art

I use sound as a primary medium in my creative practice, focusing on installations and sound performances. My project takes extensive research on analyzing the characteristics of aural mediums, such as density, timbre, and resonance, and exploring their dynamic sound energy in tangible forms. It is the medium that constitutes salient messages of my work, and understanding the sonic quality and texture of different aural materials is critical in my practice.

Through my project at GlogauAIR titled Sound of Land, I experiment with the properties of inaudible sounds propagated through the ground to amplify distinctive forms of geographical data of spaces, places, and environments. I’m interested in amplifying the sound that geography has been listening to identify sonic geographies of two different locations: Seoul, South Korea, and San Francisco, CA United States.
