Oceanus

Birth Y: 1986 Birth C: HONG KONG Gender: Male

Media Specification: Tape

Prog. notes: In Greek Mythology, Oceanus was portrayed as a Titan. As one of the many sons of Uranus and Gaia, he was believed to be a river that encircles the world. I borrowed the name Oceanus for this piece to depict water in a natural environment. This piece is roughly divided into three sections. The first section consists of only sounds of water. The sound of the rain and a non-processed thunder strike mark the beginning of the second section, which also feature a multitude of animal sounds. The last section incorporates combination of sounds from both previous sections.
