Le film d\u00e9peint \u00e9galement la vie des agriculteurs qui cultivent ces rizi\u00e8res et des habitants locaux qui partagent cet environnement. Les conditions m\u00e9t\u00e9orologiques, telles que le vent, la pluie et le soleil, sont des \u00e9l\u00e9ments essentiels \u00e0 la culture, et les humains cultivent et r\u00e9coltent en anticipant ces \u00e9l\u00e9ments, assurant ainsi leur subsistance. Les rizi\u00e8res ne sont pas prot\u00e9g\u00e9es comme des serres et sont cultiv\u00e9es dans des conditions difficiles, comme les typhons, les s\u00e9cheresses et le froid. J&rsquo;ai observ\u00e9 l&rsquo;aspect changeant et m\u00e9tamorphos\u00e9 des rizi\u00e8res au fil des cultures et des al\u00e9as climatiques. J&rsquo;ai exprim\u00e9 l&rsquo;\u00e9volution du paysage en associant le son des carillons \u00e9oliens, qui refl\u00e8tent les conditions m\u00e9t\u00e9orologiques, au processus de culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em><long version=\"\">I focused on how the landscape is transformed when the wind as a weather phenomenon streams through the rice paddies cultivated by humans. It also portrays the lives of the farmers who cultivate these paddies and the local residents who share this environment.<\/long> Weather such as wind, rainfall and sunshine are important elements in cultivation, and humans cultivate and harvest while anticipating these elements, and in this way they sustain human life. Rice paddies are not protected like a greenhouse, and they are cultivated under harsh conditions such as typhoons, droughts, and cold weather. I observed the constantly changing and transforming appearance of the rice paddies through the process of cultivation and weather. I expressed the changing landscape by connecting the sound of wind chimes, which reflect the weather, with the cultivation process.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-vimeo wp-block-embed-vimeo wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"&quot;The Stream XIV ,Trailer&quot;, 4K, 01min,2025, dir.
