This performance showcases the “oral tradition” of voice and landscape.

The first person makes an audio recording of their words,
and sends it to the next person, along with a video clip of the landscape or scene they were seeing at the time.

After the next person has received this,
They record the same words in their own voice,
And send it to the next person with a new video clip.

By repeating this process, an “alliance” of oral tradition is created which successively passes on voices and landscapes.

Performance procedure
“The Fahrenheit Alliance IV’” is a one-on-one performance between the actor and the audience, in which the audience members themselves take part in the relay-like process.

First off, the actor receives a recorded voice and video clip of a landscape or scene from the previous person.
Next, audience members themselves receive a recorded voice and video clip of a landscape or scene from the actor.
After the performance, audience members take away a part of the play, and record their voice to send to the next person.

How to view the performance
Audience members lie on their beds to watch the performance.
Video images are projected onto the bed covers,
resulting in real-time synthesis of the audience members’ bodies and landscapes/scenes.
