    After composing a number of musical pieces Ei Wada (1987) subsequently switched his attention to outmoded electrical appliances, interested in their supposed obsolescence. He modified and recontextualized them to be played as musical instruments. This work culminated in what is now the Open Reel Ensemble, a performance with Kimihiro Sato using remodeled reel-to-reel tape recorders, which was shown at the SIGGRAPH ASIA 2009 Art Gallery. His latest performance work, Braun Tube Jazz Band, won the Art Division Excellence Prize in the 13th Japan Media Arts Festival.
