NHK BS "Gokujo Bi No Kyoen"

Tatsuya composed music and sound design for the introduction movie about Soga Shohaku (Japanese painter of the mid-Edo period) for NHK BS’s program “Gokujo Bi No Kyoen.”


This movie features his most impressive masterpiece called “Dragon and Cloud,” which is one of the collections by the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, and now exhibited in Tokyo National Museum (March 20 -June 10) .

Tatsuya worked together with creative director Noriyuki Tanaka for the movie, and took a unique approach by using sounds of Japanese traditional instruments such as Taiko, Shakuhachi, and theatrical voices as often heard in Kabuki. Check out the program aired on May 23th (Wed).

This is the “first version” of “Dragon and Cloud.” In the final version which was actually used on the program, the percussion elements of the former part were removed.

「私が絵を描くのは、共鳴してくれる人を求めているからではない。ただ、私の孤独を表しているだけ」と篠田桃紅さんは語った。孤独とは「埋めるもの」ではなく「結晶化するもの」。欠落ではなく充足であり、それは「自由」の別名なのだ。「自我」や「存在証明」といった強い言葉を避け、「孤独」という表現に留める。そこに、執着を脱した篠田さんならではの「粋(いき)」が宿っている。

「言わぬが花」という言葉は好きではないけれど、我々は沈黙を大切な「知性」の一つとしてきた。でも、GoogleやAIは沈黙を検索することはできないし、機械は沈黙を知性だとは見なさない。無関心や沈黙、さらには「電源を切ること」や「回線を遮断すること」も知性の一つだと思う。こうした態度は、最近では「Attention Sovereignty(注意主権)」とも呼ぶらしい。人間が注意の主導権を奪還することができるかどうかは、つまるところ自分次第。

基本的に「音の人」である僕は、世界がますます言語偏重になっていくことを残念に思っている。言語モデル(LLM)が驚くほど沢山の知的タスクをこなせるようになったからといって、「言語化こそが知能の正体」だということにはならない。そこを取り違えると、人間は言葉の奴隷になってしまう。これをどう思うかGeminiに尋ねると、「AIは人間の知性を置き換えるのではなく、人間が持つ知性の“言語化された断面”を極端に肥大化させる装置なのです」。
