Prog. notes: Taoism is a philosophical, ethical or religious tradition of Chinese origin, or faith of Chinese exemplification, that emphasizes living in harmony with the Tao. Laozi is traditionally regarded as the fouder of Taoism and is closely associated with “original” or “primordial” Taoism. Tao is the source of my inspiration for this work. In this work, by means of electronic music, using sensors to capture the hand trajectory of double bass player, and fully extends the bass sound and way of playing.
