<div><p>"My approach to music,
having received a specialized education in art, might be said to be
closer to that of paintings and sculptures. Being conscious in the
handling of elements such as hue, saturation, brightness, mass, form,
and texture, I directly apply these principles to sound as well.
Considering the artists and pieces that have influenced me the most,
including Agnes Martin、Ad Reinhardt、cy twombly、Morris Louis、Mark Rothko,
my inspirations are visual rather than musical. To me, there is no
boundary in particular between making music and drawing a picture."</p>

<div><p>Refraction and
Reflection has taken field recordings and synthesizer sounds and
processed them in various ways to alter and reconstruct the original.
Some of the sounds present are complexly processed recordings, retaining
none of their original qualities, others are delicate noise, and then
there are those which recreate the sounds of nature, such as that of
treading on snow or tree branches, or the call of a bird. There are
truly a great variety of sounds utilized. In this album, I tried to
bring into harmony both the tactile and the deeply spiritual aspects of
sound.</p><div><br></div><div>Best wishes</div><div> </div>
