Director Statement

Do you see or hear?
Man’s life is maintained through the five senses, two of which, “seeing” and “hearing”, are gateways of man’s knowledge, awareness and thought. Yet, over the course of history of man’s thought, different and even conflicting narrations and interpretations have been presented of the functions of seeing and hearing. Sometimes hand in hand, they have embarked on creation of a combination of visual systems and sometimes because of different sounds, they have reached an auditory interpretation, as a bridge between seeing and hearing is built. However, someday, it may possible to see through ears and hear through eyes, and that is the peak of synesthesia in man’s thought.
