Context: This work took Catacomb from Pictures at Exhibition by Mussorgsky and the traditional Korean Songs as musical sources. These were synthesized through the various ways such as ring modulation, vocoding, and morphing. Having been edited, these materials symbolize the image of eterally flowing rivers of Korea.
Despite the deep anxiety years.
a crane takes to its wing,
as if a fair river flows
without creating any waves in the water passing by.

Poem from Crane by Jungjoo Shu.

The original version was recorded 6 channel surround music.
