Wu Wei (2022)
A binaural soundscape recorded in Theta -> Beta Frequencies
Wu Wei is essentially nothingness, effortless action. One of the guiding principles of the Tao Te Ching that helped create this audiovisual composition.
The composition came from a place of effortless action - thought and intension were removed, the music came out of me, my body was just a vehicle to help this process. The visuals, despite being prominently digital, resemble the flapping wings of a bird, and nod to traditional Eastern calligraphy.
“You have only to rest in inaction and things will transform themselves. Smash your form and body, spit out hearing and eyesight, forget you are a thing among other things, and you may join in great unity with the deep and boundless.”
Zhuangzi, The Complete Works of Chuang Tzu
