In Sound Journey: Womb, we aim to delve into the potential of sound to awaken memories that lie deep within our subconscious. Our intention is to evoke the distant experience of being inside a mother’s womb by curating an immersive soundscape that combines the rhythmic pulse of a heartbeat, the gentle flow of blood, the subtle vibrations of organs, underwater resonances of breathing, and distant sound of the human world. By presenting only these auditory cues, we hope to create an expansive canvas upon which the audience can paint their own vivid recollections and imaginations.
