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.

生成AIの検索1回には、従来のGoogle検索の約10倍の電力がかかるという。僕はSDGsや循環型社会を唱えまくる人間ではないけれど、僕が暇つぶしにくだらない質問を投げかけ、AIが長文で回答を返すまさにその瞬間、どこかのデータセンターのサーバーがフル稼働し、(スマホを数分充電する程度の)電力を消費してCO2を排出している。半導体景気に狂喜乱舞する昨今、自分も含めたこのアンチ・サスティナブルな暴走の矛盾に、ふと寒気がする。

かつて若手ピアニストがアーマッド・ジャマルに「あなたの演奏は空白(間, space)が絶妙ですね」と称賛したら、「あれは空白じゃなくて、自制心(discipline)と呼ぶんだよ」と返されたという。音を増やすより減らす方が、遙かに経験や訓練を要するのは当然だが、「(少ないが)足りている」のと「(何かが欠けて)足りない」の差は大きい。この差の間に「ミニマリズム」の答えがあると思う。

以前、英・中・西の3言語で世界の3分の1(約28億人)という話を書いたけれど、日本語の話者は世界で約1.5%程度。ネットであれ現実であれ、日本語だけが交わされる空間は、小さな部屋に人が密集している状態だということ。その密度の良し悪しは人それぞれだけど、世界の98.5%の人はその中でのせめぎ合いを全く知らずに過ごしている。そう考えると、日々の些末なことがあまり気にならなくなるのでは?パゴーヂ(サンバ)の名曲で良い週末を。
