We found a boat-shaped cabin in the woods, which we made it “a secret base”. I organized an environment improvisation recording session with 7 other musicians at 6am in the morning, when the owl living besides the cabin was still sleeping. After the session, Kyungso Park, a gayageum player from Korea stayed there to practice with the morning clouds and birds. So we two made a recording together. Kyungso once told me that she feels that natural sounds are harmonic and they do care about each other, while "artificial" sounds are very selfish and rude. In our drafting experiment, she listened to the environment very well, but also inevitably slided into self-immersed moments (making sounds which she called “selfish”). It was not a very good recording according to my "standard about environment improvisation”, but it still touched me a lot without reasons.

Genre-defying electronic music that at times operates at the slow stutter-step of dubstep and others with the drift of ambient. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 9, 2022
Cavernous electronic music that is pitch black and terrifically unsettling, this is the kind of thing that would score a xenomorph rave. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 22, 2022
For this LP, Formen modified old 16bit effects units which were then cascaded via internal patch points to develop a glitchy sound. Bandcamp New & Notable Dec 18, 2021
