"FOOT""STEP"
This piece was written by a composer who was unable to play an instrument at the time due to a severe hand injury. He realized that losing hand control restricts our ability to play an instrument He thinks about singing, but he wants to find another way to make music Then he decides to create music with his foot as a new instrument. The foot, which can make sound in a variety of ways, is one of the easiest body parts to control. In the end, this composition is finished as one in which you can create sound using any object as a percussion instrument by your feet

What is this!… this strange object? What is it doing here? It radiates this huh? ‘tis strange It shines something emanates from it’s inside it makes me think; it makes me rage. Why is it here… or rather, how is it here? How did it even get here? What must we expect a show? Ha!
Basilisk
In this performance, I explore sibilance and other sounds inspired by snakes through the expansion of the violin. The violin is treated as an organism that breathes, rattles, hisses, and weaves itself through different surfaces, resulting in friction Adhering to my philosophy from previous works, I employ materials that are available in common households. As the player breathes through the straw connected to the F-hole of the violin, the hissing is produced without any conscious action The strings are muted with thin paper, creating subtle sibilances that the player can control with their bow, mimicking the movement of a snake.
