Business Overview

The project included an exhibition of sound and visual installations, a symposium, and two days of live performances, featuring collaborative works by students from Tokyo University of Music and Tokyo Denki University, workshop participants from Japan and abroad, and lecturers, as well as works by lecturers from Japan and abroad and Japanese composers. At the symposium, Ludger Brümmer, Hiromi Ishii, and Benjamin Miller, who worked as lecturers at the ZKM workshop, and Kazuko Narita, who realized the workshop in France, were invited to discuss the significance and development of the joint production of electronic acoustic music. At the entrance of the venue, a sound-visual installation using the works of all participants and a collective portrait video was exhibited, trying to express the whole project visually and aurally. In this work, it was possible to fragment and mix about 90 works of the participants in real time by the installed handle, and it was positioned as a device to visualize and hear the electroacoustic people.

Profile

【 Electronic Acoustic People Project 2023–2025 Executive Committee 】
The Electronic Acoustic People Project is a participatory project art project that embraces the fields of music, contemporary art, and education, with the main focus being the social practice of sharing electronic acoustic music creation using computers with many inexperienced people. In 2023, it was formed as a new executive committee in collaboration with Karlsruhe Emedia Art Center (ZKM), Swedish Museum of Performing Arts, Royal Swedish University of Science and Technology, BankART1929, and Goethe-Institut Tokyo to work on social practice as project art and to establish a theory of practice based on academic perspectives and analysis.
