We can´t listen to the water itself. We can only hear the impact of water on something.
When I listen to the sounds of shallow stream for a while, suddenly I feel as if I was caught
in the water and listening them from inside of the water. When I listen to the sounds of
water dripping in quiet situation, my ears enjoy listening to the rhythmic patterns of its
occurrence and fading into the back ground. The sounds of water make random rhythm,
delicate melody and subtle overtones which vary depending on the physical contact surface,
room reverberation, spatial size and so on. In other words, the sounds of water reflect the
character of the space. And the space emerges through the sounds. In that sense, we may
listen to the scenery through the water rather than listen to the water in the scenery.
