A new form of art created by drawing and music, experimental performances by Ryosuke Kataoka and Daigo Sakuragi will take place.

The line is drawn by rolling a stone dipped in paint, and sound is generated from the vibrations produced in the process.

TONESTONES, a performance by artist Ryosuke Kataoka and musician Daigo Sakuragi in pursuit of "coincidence," is now being held at Sony Park Mini, an experimental pop-up space with a floor space of 3.5 square meters. The performance "TONESTONES" by Kataoka Kosuke and musician Daigo Sakuragi is now being held at Sony Park Mini, a 10-square meter experimental pop-up space.

The first performance, a fusion of drawing and music, took place on Wednesday, April 12 . On that occasion, Kataoka left the following words.

I find it interesting that the stone does not respond to my question, "Wouldn't it be interesting if I did it this way? I find it interesting that the stone does not always respond to my question, and that the line changes depending on the way the paint is applied. The fact that I cannot completely manipulate the lines even after many tests is one of the interesting aspects of writing with something other than a brush. . There is a certain amount of regularity in it, and I have set rules for myself. Just as you can see new scenery on the same road you take every day through repetition, such as taking a slightly different road, so you can create fascinating works of art through irregularities within a certain set of rules.

From these drawings, Sakuragi adds sound using a synthesizer as a starting device, giving the entire work depth and revealing a new aspect.

. there is no right answer , it is imperfect. . I think it is something that can be enjoyed for its imperfections and errors. . I think it is interesting in the sense that it can be interpreted by different people with different sensibilities, such as the musical element in the coincidence. Since it was the first time, I felt like it was an experiment, 'What will happen? I felt like it was an experiment. I would like to see what kind of soundscape the organic rhythms, similar to the flow of a river or the swaying of the wind, converted into synthesizers and rhythm machines will create in the next performances on Saturday, April 22 and Saturday, April 29," says Sakuragi.

The program "TONESTONES" took about a year from conception to realization.

Performances will be held on Saturday, April 22 and Saturday, April 29, to further update the space. The works will be available for viewing on other dates as well, so please be sure to visit "Sony Park Mini".
