Prog. notes: When I was a child, I was often left along at home when both my parents went to work. At that time, I tended to be scared by the noises made by the doors when they were moved by the wind because they made me think that a thief or a ghost was breaking in. This piece is intended to portray my childhood experiences of being frightened by the sounds and my own imagination. In this piece, sound samples from opening and closing the door are used as the main materials for further timbral transformation with signal processing techniques such as granular synthesis, convolution, and ring modulation.

幼年時,只要父母親外出工作,我便被鎖在家中,當時常易於被風吹門所引發的噪音所驚嚇,因為這些聲音總讓我聯想到竊賊或鬼怪的闖入。這首作品主要描述我年幼時,被聲音與自己的幻想所驚嚇的經驗。此曲以開門、關門的聲音作為全曲的主要素材,透過音色變形、音高移位、粒子化合成、聲音融合、振福調變等方式達成創作需求。
