Pulses of Island is a music composition that delves into the art of listening beyond what meets the ear. The piece explores the various techniques of recording across different locations in Taiwan, uncovering the secrets and subtleties of sound that often elude our senses.

How to activate your listening differently? and how to use not only your ear but your body to hear yourself listening. The composition invites the listener to tune into the interweaved messages from the body to the concealed sound like electric magnetic fields or micro-vibrations of the contact surface.

Through the deft use of time and space audio editing tools, the piece layers a new dimension of listening, revealing a universe of boundless possibilities that lies just next to the threshold of our awareness.
