From the moment mankind began observing the night sky, there is one question that has been in my mind for a very long time. As our attempts to find answers to these questions continued and progressed, we learned more about the universe and humanity. What is left of us now? The SETI (Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence) project, which seeks to find evidence of civilization outside the earth by discovering artificial radio signals from space, has continued to this day with the development of radio astronomy. Breakthrough Listen, which aims to observe one million stars and one hundred galactic centers, is a radio wave exploration project that represents this modern SETI, and has been constantly updating new observational data from 2017 to the present.

This work is the realization of real-time audio-visualization of data containing this unique signal with 2-channel projection mapping and 16- channel surround speakers.

The journey to find extraterrestrial intelligence is the same as the journey to find the answer to the question about humanity.
