A radiophonic work of Chinese writer and sound artist Yan Jun. Not only known for his poetry, but also for his experimental music / soundworx. His poems rely mostly on journal notions of the political situation in his country. He considers his poems as political acts, not as political poems. Because poetry itself is a political act, according to Yan Yun. Made and played live for the 42th Poetry International Studio. But the recording is made @ Studio Loos, Den Haag en mixed @ Worm Studio.
