小档案 井浦崇 大島幸代 小简介 Takashi Iura and Sachiyo Oshima have been working together on music and installation works since 2004. Following the lead of the artistic greats who created visual art inspired by music and vice-versa, Otograph has utilized modern technology to enable the visibility/audibility of the sound (oto) and images (graph) that reside within all people. Otograph generates numerous scenes intertwined with people’s feelings and memories such as musically constructed scenic images and “Sounds in Motion”. Main activities include video and installation announcements such as the web project room of DINTER FINE ART (New York), shin-bi (Kyoto), ”Leonardo Exhibition: DiVA-Kansai,” audio-visual exhibition (Kyoto University), ”small-ness” Exhibition (Kyoto). In the project “Otograph,” they mainly produce electronic music and conduct live performances in order to sensuously practice their approach to their main concept. In this project, they give more pop-style feedback about the results of the trial and error in their joint productions. In 2004, Otograph released their first album “from shine” from Ryoondo-tea, and in the following year their second album “sounds in motion” was simultaneously released in Japan, England and France. In 2005, Otograph performed in the soundtrack of the DVD “VISIONS OF FRANK” released by PRESSPOP MUSIC as well as producing the BGM and SE for the Playstation 3 puzzle simulation game “PixelJunk Monsters” released on the PLAYSTATION Network in December 2007. A common theme throughout all their music is the unique floating ambiance and distinctive feeling of balance.
