(Indonesian) Buku yang memvisualisasikan suara piano untuk para pembaca tuli. Buku ini mengarahkan Anda pada proses pembuatan setelah gambar dan kode QR yang terkandung dalam permainan musik agar dapat dinikmati baik pembaca biasa atau penderita sinestesia (penderita penyakit ini bisa melihat musik yang ia dengar).
(English) How can deaf readers appreciate a piano? To them, it appears simply as a big wooden box. The creator presents Bach's "Goldberg Variations" with illustrations. By the end of the book, the reader can feel that the piano isn't merely a big wooden box, but a beautiful box filled with music. Readers can also enjoy the piano music via QR codes on the pages, which will guide them in having a multi-sensory experience through art. Using the textures on the pages, blind readers can feel the images along to the music. We hope that with this book, everyone can enjoy music, despite any limitations.

Myung, Soojung
Myung Soojung (F) studied painting at Ewha Woman's University. While studying, she thought she would like to share all forms of art, including music, with all the people around the world.
Myung spent time and effort interviewing deaf people to learn how they understand music, which led to the creation of the picture book I Like Music for My Eyes. She wrote the book with the hope that everybody in the world could overcome their physical limitations and dance to music. The book won the Main Prize at the first Lotte Published Literature Awards. She remembers all of the small and insignificant moments in life and makes picture books about them, delivering clear messages and creating her own world of artwork.
