Music commentary
I transformed my poetry set to structure audio visual scenes, spaces, atmospheres of the work. It consists of nineteen or variable numbers of chapters of virtual representations reflected multiple facts based on dualistic constructions. The concept of Macrocosm and Microcosm goes through the structure of whole work, guided by abstract protagonist icons to express artistic central idea: life is an illusory dream, I wish every being peace in mind and world peace.

Note
The full version of poetry set was presented by Youtube in 2015. The Scene I was an artistic transformation of it, of which the 3rd and 9th chapters referenced the happy birthday song and lullaby fragments to reflect the meanings of poems. 
The composer is also the audiovisual creator/designer, performer and producer of the works.
