Have you ever watched a parade from outside the procession? The sound of drums and shouts reaches you from afar, and as it draws nearer, you become enveloped by the noise and the multitude. A parade where countless voices cry out, crowds appear, and you are repeatedly engulfed within them, only to drift away again.
«Walking towards the Flow» is a sound parade that creates a procession of sounds in the online space. Anyone was able to participate. This parade was made by collecting the sounds that people sent.

The path of sound flows like the Milky Way through which the stars circulate, always there, whether you are listening to it or not. The permanence of this eternal parade gives us final consolation. Sometimes we think that we are space debris in infinite orbit, but The moment it is observed, it is no longer loneliness or forgotten, but remembered.

Participants determine the category of sound to register for the parade. Through the categories of flags, bodies, objects, and someone, diverse subjects and others are summoned through sound. To ensure accessibility, they write an audio description and draw a pixel image of the sound before registering.

The sounds gathered are generated and output in real time, starting from one direction and fading away towards another. When listened to through headphones, they provide an auditory experience where the sound emerges from the right and flows towards the left.
