Tender Soul of Ocean began in Keelung, a northern harbor city in Taiwan, as a response to maritime culture and our perceived distance from the ocean. In its latest version, recall, WHYIXD collaborates with the Berlin-based sound collective KLING KLANG KLONG to introduce speculative wind models and real-time motion sensing. Environmental data and visitors’ movements are transformed into shifting fields of light and spatial sound, inviting a shared sensory experience of memory and the natural world.
