One thing that yinglishi opened Was that two languages can make something very beautiful at the end.

I think one question that I had was to why such a long sad Voice, but so many different sceneries too. Molly when it was a tragedy struck in the beginning. I was really confused.
#hwa4 #whatlisteningmakes

For somewhat moment, I felt like I understood and pictured the scenery, but then at times it would confuse me and make me realize okay. Maybe we’re not picturing the same idea because of there Voice.

I would say, I did get goosebumps in the beginning, because of it, reminding me of the samurai and the dynasty time, it just felt kind of familiar to me, because of all the shows and movies I watched

I feel like I stopped trying to “ understand “ was in the middle of the video i’m also just try to feel the rhythm of the song emo when it was just a white screen it made me wanna just close my eyes and just picture myself with the song

"You’ve spent your whole life imagining a Mets championship without ever actually seeing one.”
This sentence has my LLM telling me that I have spent my whole life imagining a Mets championship. It says it confidently enough that I almost believed it myself. #hwa4 #understandingeffect

I feel trapped in the sports genre because so much of the media I consume is NBA, NFL, MLB, and soccer. In the future, SMEs, I want to push against that by changing what I watch as a whole. I need to diversify a little more in the future. #hwa4 #genrepressure

Goffman says that we are always performing because context, audience etc influence our behavior, and that’s how translation works too. people use translation in a way to fit their needs, show what they mean. they can erase or highlight different meanings with translation #hwa4 #translationacts

hahah in my polish/ English world a common phrase “dziękuję z gory“ (thank you in advance Would be translated as “thank you from the mountain“ so I guess people would have to climb on something when asking for advice lol #hwa4 #lostandremade

“Ontological slippage” is when the standard is lowered, and something fake can feel real. AI hallucinations are a good example because the LLMs can present false information in a way that sounds believable. #hwa4 #wherethingsslip

During colonial times translation was used to erase the local languages. they used translation to hold power. Colonial administrators rewrote laws or hurt people for speaking their language (it happened in Poland when Germany/ Russia erased Poland in 18th century) #translationasviolence #hwa4

Talking about captions and translations. Im bilingual and I always spoke English/Polish. When I would go watch a movie at the cinema in Poland the subtitles would always be so far off to fit Polish culture. I remember always being so confused lol #hwa4

I don’t think Yingelishi gave me an answer, but I did question something I normally never think about. If humans can understand so much through tone without understanding the words, then how much of language is actually the words, and how much is everything around them? #hwa4 #whatlisteningmakes

And that makes me wonder what came first: the words themselves or the sounds and emotions behind them. Maybe language developed from people already being able to communicate through tone, expression, and sound before they had specific words for everything. #hwa4 #whatlisteningmakes

Listening to Yingelishi made me realize that a lot of emotion does not even come from the actual words. You can hear when someone is angry, excited, nervous, or sad just from their tone, even if you have no idea what they are saying. #hwa4 #whatlisteningmakes

What confuses me even more is how languages can be so different yet sound so similar. The words and sounds change completely, but people everywhere still use language to express the same emotions, ideas, and experiences. #hwa4 #whatlisteningmakes

The question Yingelishi left me with is "How did language even come to be? Every language sounds completely different, but somehow they all serve the same basic purpose of helping people communicate with each other. #hwa4 #whatlisteningmakes

Ending on a blank screen feels like the perfect way to finish it. After spending the whole piece trying to draw meaning from sound and tone, it suddenly leaves us with nothing at all. #hwa4 #yingelishiparty

It feels like while they are unable to speak directly through language, they can still understand each other through tone and sound, bringing the words off the screen and into life. #hwa4 #yingelishiparty

I've been trying to figure out why "Wisdom" is on this part. I’m still confused about how we get from “robbery” to "wisdom” because those two words feel like they could not be further apart from each other. #hwa4 #yingelishiparty
