Business Overview
The fourth concert of the Dutch-born concert series "Ogen/blik," which deals with cross-disciplinary works using music, body and image as media, was held online. From an improvisational work in which two people play one instrument by connecting Holland and Finland in real time, to works using dynamic musical scores, home-made instruments, and audiovisual works, he created a variety of expressions that reflect "the present" which changes violently every day. Together with a talk event held before and after the performance and the distribution of archived footage, the film was delivered to a large audience in Japan and abroad.
