The music and the visual art evolved while having close relations each other. The clay which was going to make Kandinski and the music that aimed at the composite art that a work reminds of various senses at the beginning of the 20th century an image at symbolic accuracy is the example. The domain of rich sensitivity to be enabled by crossing hearing and the sight and the expanse of the expression were inspected in more experimental form by John Cage and others in the 60s.
And the image is broken down into a pixel by the development of the digital technology and is handled for a sign and numerical value, and the sound is composed on the display of the PC visually, too, and art and the music are similar now in the process of the creation. Creators of a generation handling a picture, an image, a sound with one computer equally try various expression with closer “new synesthesia” and the synthesis sense that it should be said.
The book exhibition makes Ryuichi Sakamoto of the musician a general adviser, and these two expression intersects and, through the introduction of various works which are born by linking, ask it about the thing watching in “our times”, the essential meaning of what I listen to.
A general adviser: Ryuichi Sakamoto
