Everything we experience in the outer world impacts our inner worlds, so everything we encounter has potentially an encouraging or detrimental affect on our psychic development.

IT IS IN THIS WAY THAT WE AFFECT THE SPACE: BY FILLING IT...

"It is in this way that we affect the space: By filing it. The space is empty before we enter [with our objects]. "PHILISOPHY OF THE HOME by Arthur Windermere


I believe in this sentence, I also think we  as human being are playing  the main role to define the spaces where we are and even where others are. how?

my answer is by:


our BODY,
our SMELL,
our SOUNDS,
our VOICE,
our FEELINGS,
...

Fr me people are part of a space, even they can change my mind about a space where I'm in.
so I can not ignore them when it comes to talk about home.

I never can forget the smell of my mom when she enters a space, the way that her body moves in space when she is happy, the shadow of her cigaret's smoke on the wall when she is disappointed, the reflection of crystal lusters when she tries to clean them spcially near our new year, and the confident sound of her footstep. And again how all of them affect me in different age and how they have simply made my life as I may have made her.

HOW SOUND CAN PLAY WITH YOUR FEELINGS..?

BOMBING


In this video I want to show that how the outside can affect inside,

 
       -how my childhood home-as an outside- could affect my perception of home-as an inside-,
      - how my childhood memory can be affected by an outside factor like war.
       -how by turning the radio button you can be aware of outside and all of a sudden can be a part if it.
       ......
   
We will hear different layers of sound in this video from very far to very close:

          Radio
          Warning alarm
          Footstep
          Someone talking very close to you
          Breathing
          ...
     





HORROR

Regardless of the first video here is another theme of the video,
applying this sound effect reminded me of the question which always begins with a big "what if....?"!
What if instead of war...

IMPRESSION BY LIGHT, REFLECTION, SHADOW




World of outside the home plays an important role on the feelings that I have when I am inside [home].
I'm trying to use TV as an element that make aware of the space of outside.

FIRST, LET MAKE A HOME FOR OUR SOUL

"A house you can pick up and leave and go to another one. A home stays with you though, and can be put into other houses."
A house is a house if I dont' add "love" and "I" to it... It can be a home, if I make it "my home" and all that I love about it and what is in it.

Making a home for my soul, I let my soul feel comfortable within my body and be happy with who I am right now!
Then I have a chance to spread love everywhere around me, and create home out of every place where I am in and feel comfortable
But if I am not happy with who I am,
          I always look for something lost,
          I always look for others approval  to do something new,
          I always hesitate about my decisions

A HOUSE IS JUST A HOUSE, UNTIL.......





well, yes, a house is simply a shelter. its a place you live in. but it becomes a home when...

- there are things in it that you live for, like family, spouse, etc.
-there is love that is shared within its walls.


"lived in a house, in a marriage for 8 years but it was never 'mine', never really home. It lacked the feeling of harmony and comfort. Been in my apartment less than a year and it is homey, still working on it. There is truth in the statement that home is where the heart is."

A a single person can have a home, and a married couple can have a house. I like to think a house is a home if it's where you feel safe and happy. You know like a good book and blanket on a cold day. And you can have this being single or married. It's all in what you make of it.
It is, how you express yourself within your home that makes it a home, comfortable and happy and glad to come home to "your home"...
It's what you do with a house, how you make it express, reflect, and comfort you as a person, that can make it a home.
A home makes you feel safe and comfortable, and you have a sort of attachment to it. A house you can pick up and leave and go to another one. a home stays with you though, and can be put into other houses.
A house is a house if I dont' add "love" and "I" to it... It can be a home, if I make it "my home" and all that I love about it and what is in it.


When I make a home for my soul, my soul feels comfortable within my body and I am happy with who I am right now!
Then I have a chance to spread love everywhere around me, and create home out of every place where I am in and feel comfortable.
But if I am not happy with who I am,
          I'm always looking for something lost,
          I'm always looking for others approval to do something new,
          I'm always hesitating  about my decisions.
