From watching the video, it made me think a lot about the way that we process art, the way we deliver it and the way that we translate it. With Sum Kim I found it interesting how she originally thought of sound. For example, when she was saying that people that could hear had some king of ownership of sound, that she had to be respectful of their sound, and that sound was in their possession. I hadn’t really notice that, because when we think about it, when we are in public space, we try to be quiet or get annoyed when someone is rowdy or eating loud, because they are disrupting our sound, and in a way our space.

 She said that she didn’t want to know what sound was but wanted to learn and find meaning through her experiences. With her performance I liked that she wants to reclaim her possession of sound and wants us not to just hear but see sound as well. I think that is exactly what we get through her performance. We get to see her sound associated in a different manner, it’s as if it no longer becomes our knowledge of sound, but rather we are getting a different intake of sound throughout her experiences.

Her way of approaching her performance, it made me think that there is not a single and set form in the way that we depict things. We can also disconnect meaning by making something take another form, which we end up deciding what form that would be. like she said, it was a loose translation of sound into another form, and in a lot of ways it just made me think what is sound or anything, and how do we define it?  Her way of processing and receiving sound was through the different materials and setups she connected to her recordings. Her art became the experiments done for her to experience sound, and for others it became a bigger picture or seeing and hearing someone elses depiction of sound.
