Captain Funk-interview at J-Pop World thumbnail

Tatsuya had an interview with “J-Pop World (https://www.j-popworld.com/),” American website dedicated to promoting Japanese music and related artists from around the world. They talked a very wide range of topics, from his musical background, his thoughts about remix & collaboration, to recent activities and future visions at Tatsuya’s label Model Electronic. It is very rare for him to have such a long, deep interview like this (and he enjoyed it very much).

We would like to thank and give a shout-out to the interviewer Mark for his interest in Tatsuya’s music and, above all, his deep knowledge of Japanese pop music!

Hope you’ll read and enjoy, it’s rare to talk about the detail like this.

About J-Pop World (quote from the website):

90年代半ば、AIではなくAL(人工生命)や複雑系、カオス理論に魅せられ、浅い理解ながら本を読みあさっていた時期がある。現在それらの研究はデータサイエンスやネットワーク科学等に吸収・再編成されたが、当時の複雑系の世界は文字通り混沌とし、遊びと研究の境目もない熱気があった。そのムーブメントの中心にあったのが「サンタフェ研究所」だ。まだ健在だったとは。遊びと研究とビジネスが同義な世界、大好き(笑)。

これまで限界費用がゼロに近い高収益モデルで「いとも簡単に」莫大に稼いできた企業が、なぜインフラのような「しんどい」重厚長大ビジネスへ突進するのか不思議でならない。広告からサブスクへのシフトも、DisneyやNetflixのようにうまくはいかないだろう。ゴールドラッシュで本当に勝ったのはツルハシ屋やジーンズ屋で、一攫千金を狙って西に突進した山師達は彼らを潤す労働者と化してしまった — そんな歴史の皮肉を思い出す昨今のAI。

岡本太郎氏は「芸術は爆発だ」と言った。僕にとっての芸術もしくは創作は、初期衝動、怒り、問題提起といった「ヤケクソ」を美に換える作業だ。衝動のまま形にするのもいいが、ヤケクソを手なずけ、冷静に、丁寧に編集・構築・物語化することで作品に昇華する。そのために不可欠なのが、経験に裏打ちされた技術(アート)なのだと思う。ただ、技術があれば作品めいたものは作れるが、肝心のヤケクソを生み出すことはできない。
