Once upon a time, Zhuangzi dreamt he was a butterfly, fluttering hither and thither, to all intents and purposes a butterfly. Conscious only of his happiness as a butterfly. Soon he woke up, wondering if he was a man dreaming about a butterfly, or a butterfly dreaming about being a man. Let the music take you to a new level of awakening: Are you dreaming or are you awake? How can you be sure? This soundscape represents that dream of Zhuangzi, the journey of its realization and transformation.
