#2 The sound of rain needs no translation.
1.What do you want to find out? 2.What do you hope to find out?
I think the first two questions are particularly difficult to answer. 1, they are based on the idea that there is something to be sought out, that the process of art practice is based on reason/rationale. In my case, the first two questions are the hardest. In both Chinese and Hinduism philosophy, the point of life is that there is no point, for someone to ask me the first question, is as if someone is trying to translate the sound of the rain. A person might ask the sky, why are you raining? The person could go in-depth about the scientific side of the matter and start to explain the condensation in the cloud and etc, but fail to see the whole image. Because there is no end to this question, you could go deeper and deeper, but only to find out that you are tangled in small details, like you are trying to explain the bumps and curves in a cloud. But cloud is just there, it needs no explanation.
