A world of fragmented images and a gramophone DJ. Tetsuya Nagato's video works are now available on YouTube.

YouTube has established itself as a place for personal expression. Today, it has become the world's largest tool for transmitting information, regardless of genre or whether you are a professional or amateur filmmaker.

People who have been looking for a place to express themselves in the real world are also entering the market one after another, partly due to the influence of Corona. Despite the negative aspects, it is nice to see that users can easily come into contact with quality content.

Then, in late August. Tetsuya Nagato, a talented artist who has worked as a book director for Undercover and KIJIMA TAKAYUKI, as well as an artist in his own right, launched his own channel.

The two videos released to the public are titled "Seed Fire 1: Gramophone DJ" and "Seed Fire 2: Gramophone DJ. Based on the images and sounds of the gramophone DJ recorded in a studio in Tokyo, the work is a superimposition of the scenery of Aso, where he lived after 3.11, and fragments of footage he had taken.

With rough music from a gramophone as background music, the images, which we do not know when or where they are from, continue to appear in small pieces. . Although the images of the ages and places come to mind, the discrepancy between the sound and the images leads us to a strange sensation.

In this day and age, some people have become distant from art. For those people, I recommend putting on earphones, turning the volume up loud, and immersing yourself in this visual world. The site will be updated on an irregular basis in the future, so don't forget to subscribe to the channel.
