I pick Francisco López as the artwork I hear, I think heard a lot of wave sound, they are merged together. Francisco López transforms the environmental recordings captured by his equipment into fascinating, disconcerting imaginary worlds –alternative universes that require profound listening, free from aesthetic prejudices and especially from the need to associate what we hear with our actual surroundings. It can let the audience be inside the noise, feel you are not in the concert or home, instead you are living the nature, hearing the sound that nature gives to you. You can hear the source from nature (insects, rivers, the wind, birds, urban soundscapes) and his music totally transcends the original context of these phonemes. You may feel boring after you keep hearing the same noise during the sound, but I think it is a new media way to explore art and create art.
