Description |
Using folks are always the resources of my composition. “How to restore ancient ways” and “how to rebirth oldness” are the ways to give the folks a new life. A Chinese lullaby “Purple Bamboo Tune” is imbedded here. The drum like sound in open strings is derived from NanQuan (Taiwanese opera).
“Going Nowhere, Bing Nobody” means to “stop.” To stop one’s desire, to stop one’s meaningless thinking, and to release from any material and mental attachment. At the end, the state of “ego-less” (no “I” in one’s mind) will be reached. |
