Artist Statement:
Through a process of trial and error while tinkering with Braun tube televisions, Ei Wada discovered their inner workings. He developed a playing technique using his hands as pseudo antennas and the televisions and PC-controlled video decks as musical instruments, or ‘light synthesizers’.
This project is part of the international cooperation Exchange Emergences between the Japan Media Arts Festival (jp) and the Coded Cultures Festival (at).
