Sawako live in Tokyo 2003.march.13  

  


Sawako  is a Japanese sound artist currently living in Tokyo. She did live performances in japan, usa, paris and london. She makes a soundscape graced with silences, the post-romantic petite sounds, mixer feedback, computer prossesing, field recording, and the various sounds of her immediate environment. Almost paradoxical in nature, Sawako's music encompasses both deep contemplation and a arbitrary randomness of having totaly no intentions. Recently she is co-editing/writing a book about electric music and sound art as collavolation with Andrew Deutsch.

This is the recording of sawako's live in warszawa, a club/bar in tokyo. In the live performance, she collavolate with the immediate environmental sound such as the street, audiences and the venue. Her thinking/attitude towars environment in live performance is coming from her experience of field recording. But also recently some people like Yoshihide Otomo, o.blaat, some people in Boston have interest and do activity about collavolating with the immediate environmental sound when they do live performance. I don't know exactly what thet think, but, it seems they are coming from their own original route to the attitude/thinking.
