呼吸:生命之歌 · Breathing: the sound of life

Length: 1‘39“|3D Animation

THE IDEA

Breathing is the instinctive reflection of our perception of the world we‘re in.

Breathing is the external rendering of our internal as well bodily world.

 

The rhythm, frequency, sound of the breathing tells everything about a living man.

How old he is, 

What he is doing, 

How he feels about what he’s doing...

 

We breath as long as we are alive, anytime, anywhere, anyhow. 

That’s the music of life.                          

 

The visualization of the invisible:

 

Every breath has a personality just as every person does. 

Different personalities result in different movements and different rhythm of the movements. 

The forces that trigger the movements vary as well.

THE STORY「A man’s life」

If you’re ever able to catch the sense of humor in this work, 
hopefully you would get the idea of how short life is,
almost in a rush, to the end.

This minute you are breathing in your mother's womb, 
so eager to see the world.
The next minute you are a teenager already, 
trying to figure out the meaning of life in the mist.

This minute you may be quarreling with your wife or husband,  
as if the whole world would crash if you don’t win the fight.
The next minute you could be in the emergency room struggling at the verge of death, 
the whole world just doesn’t matter that much to you anymore. 

Sooner or later, 
like it or not,
we all will be one day lying in a cuboid box, 
It won’t be much bigger than the size of a body.
But for those of you who know where to go next for sure, will remain breathing.
That’s the breathing of eternity.
