Aki Nakazawa: Drawing wishes

Aki Nakazawa: Drawing wishes

In today's globalized world with big infrastructure such as Internet, world-trades, and so on to have easy-access to our homeland, how can we recognize the exchange between circumstances and our identities? It could be easy to depend on your nostalgic home and not to go out to new world. Only the sky that I have never seen before makes me realize that I’m already out of my past. Trails draw borderlines to leave the story behind...

When I wish upon a star

In When I wish upon a star Yamashita and Kobayashi prolonged a videotaped image of a real shooting star, whose duration is originally less than a second, into about two minutes in order to make it long enough for all of Yamashita's wishes upon the shooting star.

Riichiro Mashima: Ski Jumping Pairs

Riichiro Mashima: Ski Jumping Pairs

Human silliness and nonsense are very romantic. This is a magnificent parody that tries to express the 'beauty of nonsense' through a definitive realization of the world of Pairs Jumping. This is also developing its official site, extra edition of a newspaper, etc.

Taro Takahashi: A Letter from Mr. Konnyakuro

A Letter from Mr. Konnyakuro

On a Wednesday Night in Tokyo

Tokyo, 11pm. People entering a train.
Shot in one take the video communicates the inevitable up to the edge of the unbearable.

Through the eyes and reactions of a judge the video observes a tournament of young martial artists. The indications of the judge interfere with the transmission by the medium.

Bright Future Ahead

audio-visual installation with four synchronised projections; documentation: 07:00 + 16:35 split screen, JP, DE, 2006
Jan Verbeek: Bright Future Ahead

Jan Verbeek: Bright Future Ahead

The installation Bright Future Ahead creates a dense and floating atmosphere. Aspects of life in a mega-city world like Tokyo can be seen, contrasts in Japanese civilization. People reveal themselves as parts within well-organized systems. Routine activities are condensed to ambiguous choreographies. If there will be a bright future, this question remains unanswered.
