Abstract [en]

This project originated from my experience of an earthquake in September 2016, in Seoul, South Korea. It was an opportunity to re-think my disconnected relationship to nature. The sense of consciousness in nature and the symbiosis between humans and nature has been taken over by nature objectification. The question ´what if we change the perspective toward nature from objective to subjective?´ came to my mind. Subjective Nature means that humanity is emotionally intertwined with nature.

In this project, I propose a sound installation that I named ‘Swing Jam’. The intention is to translate the natural movement of pendulums into a sound experience. This could be poetically interpreted as ‘giving a voice to nature’. By experiencing sound, I wish to evoke an emotional connection between nature and human.

By empowering nature and individual experiences through designing situations, I wish to open up the emotional dialogue between human and nature. In this project, I’d like to awaken the importance of individual and emotional experience that is the core of being in an ecosystem. Furthermore, this is an accessible dialogue between nature and human.
