Business Overview

"Let's do something" is a collective of members who have been exploring sound, music and the surrounding areas from both research and practice. In this exhibition, music and sound works created by four artists from different viewpoints are put together in one space, and the whole is put together as one work by composing time and space. Multiple independent musical streams sometimes intersect and interact with each other to present new acoustic expressions.
The theme is "multilayered life". In our daily lives, even if we share the same space, we all spend different times inside. In this exhibition, the multi-layered state was made visible by comparing it with the difference in the flow of multiple pieces of music played simultaneously. It was designed so that the viewer could move around freely and pay attention to specific sounds or get a bird's-eye view of the overall acoustics.
