Photographs can show the soul of a city.

In the same way, sound can do.

In the city, sound is the most fluid and penetrating medium, which weaves the personality and story of the region, and also records the flow of time silently.

Whether it's a busy street, a tranquil park, or a creative studio, every corner has a unique sonic narrative. If we listen closely, we can capture the details that are often overlooked, and get a glimpse into the inner life of a city or even an entire ecosystem.

As an important representative area of Qingdao's "courtyard" culture, Wudi Road is the most leisurely in the morning, which can show its strong life atmosphere and historical and cultural heritage. The aroma of breakfast wafts from residents' homes and mingles with the smoke and smoke in the alleys.

The holiday crowd disperses, leaving a rare tranquility for the aborigines, and this historical and cultural district seems to have returned to its original rhythm of life. The stone pavement, which has been precipitated over the years, is now intertwined with the morning light, reflecting dappled light and shadow, as if telling the story of the past years.

Especially in the "Poluo Youzi" area that is being renovated, those stone steps and paths that have gone through vicissitudes have been the mark of the growth of countless Qingdao people, witnessing the century-old process of Qingdao from a fishing village to an international city.

Walking in the alleys of Wudi Road, all you hear are everyday sounds: cooking on fire, chopping bones in vegetable shops, garbage trucks shuttling, and occasionally the hum of electric drills in the hands of repair workers......

These voices paint a vivid sketch of the city, outlining the simplicity and ordinariness of life in the city.

The birdsong is like a harpist, plucking the strings, evoking a lively day in Fushan Forest Park, which is like a musician of nature, building a quiet and vivid sound theater with its vast green vegetation.

Walking through the park's paths, you'll feel the breeze through the treetops, the rustle of leaves, the chirping of birds, their singing in different tones, the harmony echoing through the forest, and the sound of nature's percussionists.

Why is sound everywhere, but it is always ignored? Xiaobei thinks that we should take good care of our ears? How to serve? How can we find the acuity of hearing and enjoy the beauty of sound itself? Xiaobei thinks that music should be the most direct!

Located at No. 8, Wan'an 3rd Road, Shibei District, the Confucian Guqin of Qingdao Guqin Association has added a touch of simple and elegant sound to the city.

Here, the ancient art of chopping the qin is continued in the fifth generation of inheritor Si Dexiao, whose story is full of love and obsession with guqin music. Originally, it was the sound of the qin that touched the heartstrings, which then inspired him to explore the art of guqin-making. From a piano player to a luthier, he turns this passion into the temperature at his fingertips, pouring it into every meticulous process.

The flavor of guqin music is very transparent, so that it is not difficult for people to feel the core of the raw materials, and the birth of each guqin is a miniature historical epic. From the selection of wood, to the meticulous production to the final commissioning, each process is a precise grasp of time and sound, so that the guqin music that has been passed down for thousands of years can be rejuvenated in modern life.

In the evening, the Taitung Night Market boils all night long, and the sound of boiling pot gas and talking about business and drinking is mixed with dialects from all over the world.

In the rice noodle shop, the scraper scrapes the flour on the rice noodle board, the busy figures of the vendors are accompanied by the sound of the spatula and the iron pot and the sizzling sound of the ingredients when they are put into the pot, and in front of all kinds of barbecue stalls, the flames jump, and the meat skewers are roasted, making a tempting crackling and popping sound......
