Sudoku Solution 202045 was played in Sonic Pi, using two iPhone recordings made by WeiWei in Taipei, during buddhist rituals in the weeks after the death, on May 1st 2021, of her grandfather, preparing for the deceased's body's definite departure from this world of living, and his re-birth in a new material form.
("Dans la tradition tibétaine, le corps du défunt ne peut pas être touché durant trois jours et demi, afin que le processus ne soit pas affecté lorsque la conscience quitte le corps. Durant 49 jours après le décès, soit le temps pour que le défunt puisse renaître sous une nouvelle forme, les bouddhistes font des rituels tous les sept jours, dont des prières et des offrandes.")
