During this process she works with the smallest particles and grains of the everyday acoustic perception. Miki Yui plays sampler, electronics, as well as solar oscillators. Her works are represented at numerous exhibitions and concerts in Europe and Japan, further she developed productions for the WDR Studio Acoustic Art and released various recordings.
