"I used Tibetan letters, as they are very beautiful (trans: �high Tibet iron road�). This depicts lots of scenery of Tibet, which have traditional moral ties. I use the tracks decoratively, as I do not know how they were laid, to say that scientific development will invade natural scenery. From the beginning to the end of the tracks you can see many events happening, like on the far end, traditional religious festivals, sky burial in the middle, and villages, farms and lakes with ducks, one couple making love."
