What do you mean by collecting wind?

It means a collection of people's feelings and customs; Especially the collection of local folk songs.

Collecting customs refers to collecting people's feelings and customs; Especially the collection of local folk songs. The language comes from Zhong Shuo Wen Yi in Sui Dynasty: "Governors don't praise poems, emperors don't collect poems, musicians are indecent, and national history is unknown. Alas, after a long time, Poetry can't be continued!" ?

After more than two thousand years' development and evolution in China, the connotation of collecting folk songs is slightly different in different historical periods. What we call "collecting wind" today is divided into broad sense and narrow sense.

Collecting customs in a broad sense refers to the behavior of cultural people to obtain cultural information by visiting and collecting social life and natural phenomena. In a narrow sense, collecting customs refers to the activities of cultural personnel to collect information about social life and natural phenomena for the purpose of creating literary and artistic works and studying cultural phenomena. Writers travel around and painters sketch; Folklorists go to folk to experience life and collect stories, customs, legends, dialects and spoken languages; Musicians recorded folk songs and local ditties. All belong to the narrow category of collecting folk songs.

In artistic creation, only when you are familiar with something and have passionate feelings and creative impulses for something can you stimulate the artist's perceptual knowledge, and artistic works also rely on the artist's perceptual knowledge to impress the appreciators. The biggest advantage of collecting folk songs is that artists can get the details of things. For example, if a painter wants to draw a person who works in the field, he can't draw a good picture without going to the field to carefully observe the movements, gestures, expressions and shapes presented in the space.
