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.

数か月前にウォーキングマシンを購入して以降、外の坂道ウォーキングの時間を半分に減らしている。そのお陰で足裏の調子は随分良いのだが、太陽の光を浴びる時間も半減してしまった。日照(メラトニン)不足対策としてLEDの室内灯を仕事中煌々と照らして使うのだが、6、7年使っているもののこれの効果はさっぱり分からない。で、いつも「常夏の島で毎日、太陽の下でランニングするのが一番」という、当たり前の結論に達する。

最近「糸川英夫」にハマっている。そう、あの小惑星「イトカワ(ITOKAWA)」の命名の元になったロケット研究者だ。ただ、糸川氏のことをロケット研究者と呼ぶには、彼の功績は多岐に渡りすぎていて、少し気が引ける。彼の著書は中古で1円から数百円で手に入るが、書かれている内容や発想の面白さはその何百倍もの価値がある。昔よくやっていた100円のレコード箱漁りと同じく、僕はそういう拾いものの本を探すのがメチャクチャ好き。

元Googleの思想家ジェイムズ・ウィリアムズは著書『Stand Out of Our Light』で、哲学者ディオゲネスとアレクサンダー大王の逸話を紹介する。アレクサンダーがかの有名なディオゲネスだと知り、「私にできることはあるかね?」と尋ねると、朝日を浴びていたディオゲネスは「そこ邪魔。光を遮らないで」と返した。ウィリアムズはここから教訓を引き出すが、僕は面倒な相手を動かすより自分が光の方へ動く方が手っ取り早いと思う(笑)。
