Is this correct, and if so, how does it inform your new album <em>Nomad<\/em>?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>itta: <\/strong>TENGGER\u2019s mission, or role, is to convey the various moments and places that have been consciously and unconsciously accumulated, through music. I think it makes me feel like I&#8217;m visiting \u201cthis space\u201d because the moment it&#8217;s expressed, there\u2019s a space shared by everyone who shares the moment. As for the new album, our identity means that in the presence of the two other countries of the 21st century, we would like to welcome the \u201cwe\u201d who walk somewhere where there is nomadic freedom, where the life-bearing people of nature, can meet \u2013 perhaps not anywhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>PAN M 360:<\/strong> TENGGER is frequently referred to as a duo, that of itta and Marqido. You are a trio, however, with your son RAII present and actively involved in your art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>itta: <\/strong>His name means \u201ca person who is loved by all things and who knows how to give love to all things in the world\u201d. He turned eight years old in May this year. We think of ourselves, as TENGGER, as being with nature and the environment that we see every moment, not limited to a duo or a trio. RAAI\u2019s birth is what made us a family named TENGGER, and the change in our music also began at that point. RAAI accompanies us during our field recording and live tours, wherever possible and whenever possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This child also has the perception that he is a member of TENGGER himself. Yesterday there was a full moon, and RAAI, who had suggested we make a wish while looking at the moon together in the evening, told me his wish. \u201cI wish I could live as part of TENGGER with my mom and dad for a long time.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">His gestures and movements have a great influence on our music, especially when it\u2019s performed live on the stage. We respond to the atmosphere and the space in the audience, but I think it&#8217;s becoming more organic after RAAI\u2019s appearance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"TENGGER - Water (Official Video)\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/33dYa7wTiyQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>PAN M 360:<\/strong> The music you create is meditative, inviting a more peaceful, reflective, and appreciative state of mind. The practice of meditation can be used to expel troubling and unhealthy feelings, but it can also serve to heighten one\u2019s awareness \u2013 of both oneself and one\u2019s surroundings. I feel there\u2019s a sort of paradox there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>itta: <\/strong>I think meditation is important. You may get some enlightenment from meditation, and it begins by emptying your mind. Yes, as you said, it&#8217;s kind of a paradox. I think &#8220;emptying your consciousness&#8221; will help us when we are standing in front of an unknown forked road, to find the wind blowing from the narrow entrance to the next destination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>PAN M 360:<\/strong> You\u2019ve explained elsewhere that you apply to your art the principle of <em>shanshui<\/em>. The term, which is generally applied to classical Chinese poetry and painting, but not music as far as I can tell, translates to \u201clandscape\u201d, or more precisely \u201cmountain-water\u201d. Can you explain this idea a bit more, as you perceive it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>itta: <\/strong>When it comes to <em>shanshui<\/em>, <em>sansu<\/em> in Korean, I think it\u2019s important to show respect for nature, not to interpret the mountains, rivers, and seas that we see. It&#8217;s like feeling the majestic energy of <em>yeongsan<\/em>, which means sacred mountains, where temples or shrines are located, known to have a spiritual energy. We are making music to keep reminding ourselves that we are part of the natural. That attitude is the relationship between <em>shanshui<\/em> and TENGGER&#8217;s music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"TENGGER - Achime [Official Video]\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/aIC_KkUzn2Y?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>PAN M 360:<\/strong> I appreciate remarks you\u2019ve made to the effect that when we speak of our environment, the line between the natural \u2013 untouched by human beings \u2013 and the artificial \u2013 the spaces we create and alter to accommodate our lives \u2013 is not firm or absolute. You\u2019ve also mentioned, in one interview, that you are \u201cnot trying to express paradise\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>itta: <\/strong>Nature is beautiful but dangerous, and it cannot be on its own. You can co-exist only when you rely on many other existing beings and are supported by them. If we face the fact that we are living with the help of all the beings around us today, it becomes pretty clear that the boundaries should be lifted. Yet we still have to experience boundaries in many ways. Boundaries between nations, racial discrimination, and the distinction between mankind and nature. I don&#8217;t think these things have ever existed, but they should be lifted from our consciousness as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>PAN M 360:<\/strong> Your themes, ideas, and therapeutic music are of particular pertinence right now, in this time of collective isolation, distancing, and anxiety over our relationship with nature. What are your reflections on this? And of course, what art are you working on now?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>itta: <\/strong>Boundaries only create anxiety, so we are trying to live today well and gratefully, and to continue to learn from nature. I think it&#8217;s the same as exploring humans. Compassion. I live preparing for what\u2019s next with the mindset of identifying myself as the same as the object itself. Please look forward to the next work from TENGGER.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>PAN M 360 thanks Jinsun Taylor Kim for translating this correspondence.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/panm360.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/TENGGER-2-1024x670.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21525\"\/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PAN M 360: The way I understand it, the philosophy and practice of TENGGER is to visit new and unfamiliar places, not to document them, but rather to access your creativity through the heightened awareness and extended experience of time caused by immersion in a new environment.
