Resfest Tokyo

Resfest Tokyo will start this Thursday. The day I will attend is most likely Friday, to the the By Design and Cinema Electronica events, in which our video for Hifana’s Wamono is included. I think Gino and I may say a few words either before or after this show. I talked a lot about this video earlier in relation to Nagi Noda, and speaking of which, she is a featured director in the Triple Threat series.

Takagi Masakatsu’s Bloomy Girls

Our video Exit/Delete First Sight which is included on Takagi Masakatsu’s album Coieda is also included in the By Design show, although I didn’t work on that one so much, and I’m not sure Takagi himself actually wants it to be associated with his name: Being the audio-viusal auteur that he is, he usually creates all his own video work himself.

Also, the Resmix Electronica program, which is basically Cinema Electronica but composed only of Japanese works, contains two other pieces on our label: Takagi Masakatsu’s Bloomy Girls (meditative, textural video oil painting), and Hifana’s Bangzai Cooking (Iron Chef spoof comedy show with Hexstatic-style editing), both of which are pieces I quite enjoy.
