Ryuichi Sakamoto presents a production combining sound installation and musical performance. The music is taken from his new album async (2017) together with new material. Sakamoto and Shiro Takatani (Dumb Type) are currently developing unique visuals and a site-specific acoustic installation. The “cinematographic” music echoes both the visuals and sounds from the original acoustic elements, plunging the viewer into a universe of quasi-meditative discovery.

Concept and Music: Ryuichi Sakamoto / Visual Direction: Shiro Takatani / Visual Programer and Operation: Ken Furudate / Sound Programer: Satoshi Hama / Production Manager: Simon McColl / FOH Engineer: Jan Gieseke / Production Engineer and Associate Manager: Alec Fellman / Producer: Norika Sora
