She introduced 5 drum performances and asked us to create patterns for each. From Japanese drums to African drums different patterns were formed with the ideas of rhythm, time, space and style. And when I think of a special form, those patterns gave different forms for each and all together it created highly unexpected visual forms exhibiting cross cultural space.
