“Imaginary Rhetoric” is the concluding piece of “blank project”, started by the artist in the aftermath of the Great East Japan Earthquake. This sound installation utilizes “bird call” instruments to emit sounds that mimic birds chirping. Bolts screwed into pieces of wood are rotated at random via programmed motors, making squeaking noises. How will humans react the moment they realize that what they thought were natural sounds are in fact generated randomly by man-made devices? We hope that you’ll listen attentively to the sounds in each location throughout the venue.
