The Canon is a compositional technique for creating musical harmony by repetition of similar melody with time delay.

In this installation, the canon is reinterpreted as an emergent kinetic musical instrument.
It consists of six layered kinetic sculpture making rhythmical percussion sound by its own motion. The motion of each kinetic sculpture is triggered by the present position of body walking through space over time. In this way, it generates overlayed emergent percussion sound and motion with interval depending on overlapping the present and the past of body in space.

卡农(Canon)是一种音乐作曲方式，通过重复相似的旋律并伴有时间延迟来创造音乐和谐。在这个装置中，卡农被重新诠释为一种新兴的动感乐器。它由六层动感雕塑组成，通过观众在空间中行走的位置随时间而触发的弹珠进行奏明。这样一来，根据身体在空间中的现在和过去的重叠可以实时实地铺写一首时空交响乐。
