Hear! Taiwan
In a Foriegn Land: sometimes what I hear is different from what I see
I have left Taiwan for London for some time.
The atmosphere of the London market sometimes reminds me of my auditory memories of Taiwan.
When my ears naturally 'travel' back to Taiwan, what I hear is sometimes different from what I see.
Perhaps this is an auditory difference between the foreigner and the native!

Here comes an opportunity!
A well-known Taiwanese record company Wind Music recenlty is running a rare and exciting event: "Hear Taiwan: telling your stories, listening to Taiwanese sounds".
They have prepared many great prizes, including bikes, to attract the public to upload videos that have "sounds with a sense of Taiwan" to their official website. The call is open between 15 Oct and 17 Nov 2009. Please act soon! For more information, please see:

Whispering: I've been invited by Wind Music to make a soundscape video for this event. Please have a listen and view! Your feedback would be very welcome and appreciated!
