about

Track 1 - 8
16 mono channel sound materials. Each left and right channel contains different sound that were used for installation with the same title.
In the installation, various objects were attached to speakers, and the noise emitted by the sound vibrations was incorporated as part of the work.
Some of the sounds are pushed out quite strongly by a compressor in order to make the objects vibrate. Therefore, <listening with headphones is NOT recommended>.

Track 9
A mix of two recordings of the same part of the installation, the one from Paris gallery and the recreated version in Tokyo studio.

Track 10
One of the audio materials used in the slow-motion performance at the exhibition opening party.

トラック1 - 8
同名のサウンド・インスタレーションでは、スピーカーに様々なオブジェを取り付け、それらが音の振動によって発する雑音も、作品の一部として取り入れた。
オブジェを振動させる目的で、コンプレッサーでかなり強めに押し出した音も含むため、<ヘッドフォンによる聴取はお薦め出来ません>。

トラック9
インスタレーションの同じ部分の2つの録音、パリのギャラリーでのものと、東京のスタジオで再現されたもののミックス。

トラック10
展覧会オープニングパーティーでのスローモーションパフォーマンスで使用された音素材の一つ。
