Between lovers or any type of two people, argument or quarrel started with very small topics. When quarreling gets intense, people started yelling each other and started to become absurd. They brought many different topics from the past that are not even related to the topic of quarrel. The more they argue, the more they started not listening to each other. Most of the time, one of the person leaves the conversation because he or she found out that it doesn't make any sense to continue conversation. This piece doesn't contain specific contents of conversation. Instead, it is more focused on the format or pattern of quarreling.

And it is known as the world's largest flower. The flowers look and smell like rotting flesh, hence its local names which translate to "corpse flower" or "meat flower". The foul odor attracts insects such as flies, which transport pollen from male to female flowers.

Composed by Youngjun Lee(June 7, 2019) Premiered by Irvine Arditti Acquired permission from performer. Video & Audio Mixing : Dai Haraguchi Program Note People who become shamans are believed to be "chosen" by gods or spirits through a spiritual experience known as shinbyeong ("divine or shaman illness"), a form of ecstasy, which entails the possession from a god and a "self-loss". This state is said to manifest in symptoms of physical pain and psychosis. Believers assert that the physical and mental symptoms are not subject to medical treatment, but are healed only when the possessed accepts a full communion with the spirit. The illness is characterised by a loss of appetite, insomnia, visual and auditory hallucinations. Young-Jun Lee, copyright © 2019, All rights reserved
