Loneliness

For our final project, we wanted to use materials that we have been learning in the class this semester. We decided to make our project based on ‘Loneliness’. Our first plan was putting the image, a dance and music together in one performance. And Youngjoo came up with a brilliant idea that making a sound-recording of T.S.Eliot`s ‘Waste land’ in Korean and Chinese. So it was going very well until we hit the problem with Skype connection with our dancer. After spending 2 hours on this, we could not hold the dancer any longer that we just wanted to record the dancer`s movement itself. (we could use them as the part of our image later)
After all, I improvised on the piano with the images and the sound-effect of T.S.Eliot`s ‘Waste land’. I was so inspired by following the movement of the image and the text of this beautiful poem to improvise the ‘Loneliness’ on the piano. It was definitely something to think about in my near future that I could do this in one of my concert!
