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.

白地に黒の四角が2個あった時、その間が徐々に狭くなって一つに見えてしまう仕掛けがあるとする。どこまで差が小さくなったら一つに融合して見えるかを測った時、2.1kHz(少し高めの音)を聞きながらその仕掛けを見た被験者は、その差の見極めが鋭くなったという。音で視力がよりクリアになったりぼやけたりするというのは、とても興味深い。私たちの五感は独立しているのではなく、脳の中で複雑に響き合い、一つの世界を作り上げている。

ジェームズ・クリアーは「環境は習慣を作る”見えない手”だ」と言い、自制心の強い人は、実は「自制心を使わなくても済む仕掛け/仕組み/ルーティーン」を作るのが上手い人のことだと説いた。離れた部屋で眠るギターを手に取るには強い意志が要るが、視界に入る場所に置かれたギターには、自然に手が伸びる。成長のための負荷を「良い摩擦」として残し、目的達成や成長を留まらせる「悪い摩擦」を減らす。仕組みや環境を見直し、アップデートしていこう。

「やる気」は過大評価されている。より大事なのは「環境作り」の方だ。 https://jamesclear.com/power-of-environment

ドキュメンタリー「イマジニアリング」を見て再確認できることは、テクノロジーはあくまで「手段」であり、クリエイティブこそがその「目的」であるという事実。 本来、表現したいものがあるからこそ技術は発展してきた。しかし、昨今は手段(テクノロジー)が目的(クリエイティブ・社会的意義)を飲み込んでしまっているようにも感じる。 だからこそ今、あえて「テクノロジーを使わないクリエイティブ」に宿る価値を、深く考える習慣を取り戻したい。
