[rustling] Gravel, it's such a nice material, also, but through this listening, it's a process of, like, become more aware of my environment... creating empathy through listening... [rocks scraping] so it's really, like, the sound of yourself and a encounter with another surface.
[tap] Being aware of the touch, like, the sound already is different because it's, like, you can also hear my body on it.
[scrape] [tap] It's like a back-and-forth communication.
The listener or the ones who actually kind of consume also the sound, they should be also again able to create their own, like, vision.
[stomp] Like, this act of awareness, I believe it's also act of changing my position and my encounter, also, somehow.
It creates other awareness to how we treat our surroundings and our environment.
