ステートメント

私の作品ではラジオを音響装置として使用し、見えない・聴こえない電波と、見える・聴こえる環境音をリア

ルタイムでコラージュします。

Radioの語源の通り、Radiant：放射された電波に接続するラジオは、ヴォイス―ノイズ―サイレンスの境界

を自由に往来でき、チューニングによって異なる音像へ移動します。

そこに物理的な移動を加えることで、その瞬間その場所の偶然性を取り込んだランド/サウンドスケープを

提示しています。

もちろん聴衆も、環境に影響を与えるアンサンブルの一部です。

Artist Statement:

In my works, I utilize the radio as an acoustic instrument to collage both invisible/inaudible radio

waves and visible/audible ambient sounds in real-time.

True to the etymology of “Radio,” radio freely traverses the boundaries of voice, noise, and si-

lence, connecting radiant waves. Through tuning, it can move amongst various sonic landscapes.

By physically moving the radios, I present a landscape/soundscape that captures the sponta-

neity of that moment and place. Of course, the audience is also a part of the ensemble which influences the environment.

Stephan’s ever-evolving music now revolves around modular explorations, infused with a playful touch of electronic dance-oriented experimental beats and breaks. His tracks are led by a colorful palette of emotions while embodied in textural rhythms, soothing vocals, and ambient soundscapes.
