rich 1.0 "I used the data and story of the river section to structure my composition and build a narrative of the river's evolution through time. The composition is started with the sound of the field recording, which means to represent the river in it's free, unchanged state. "Then an attempt to manipulate the course of the river is being introduced, first through the coarse manipulation of the recording itself and then followed by more and more introduction of synthesized elements, which mirrors the even more sophisticated ways of controlling the river's flow until in the midpoint in which the river itself became cramped with man-made elements, mirroring it's current heavily regulated shape. "The composition goes more intense and emotional as to depict the realization of heavily regulating river flow may lead to ecological crisis. Then, the man made elements fade out one by one before ending in free flowing river again, mirroring the attempt of naturalization. Upon researching the origin of the name of the Lech river, I learned that the name means "The Stony" so I translated the name of the river into my native-Javanese language: Kaliwatu."
