「3-part in(ter)ventions」 Yasuhisa Tone / Yoshio Otomo / Jim O'Rourke List Price: ¥ 2500 New, unopened. #Yasuhisa Tone / Yoshio Otomo / Jim O'Rourke #CD/DVD A session with Yoshio Otomo and Jim O'Rourke, featuring new work by avant-garde composer and artist Yasuhisa Tone, who resides in New York. This is a complete recording of a live performance held in 2009 at a venue utilizing a port warehouse in Yokohama. ■About 3-part in(ter)ventions: This was a live event held as part of the "YOKOHAMA INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL 2009." Unfortunately, Tone was unable to travel to Japan due to ill health. However, two new recordings of his planned performance piece, "MP3 Corruption Piece," were delivered for this occasion. The event proceeded with Otomo and O'Rourke performing, as per their wishes, in Tone's absence. The live performances by the two artists, who deeply admire Tone, captivated the audience, and the event was a great success. ■From the liner notes: The performance was incredibly fulfilling, compensating for Tone's absence. Or rather, perhaps Tone's absence itself was the focal point of this event. The duo of Otomo on turntables and O'Rourke on laptop featured many delicate and serene moments, creating a texture that invited deep listening to the sounds themselves. In contrast, in the trio with Tone's recordings added, the moment Tone's sound was emitted (the playback timing was left to the PA staff), the atmosphere of the venue seemed to transform, and the change in the speed of the sound itself was perceived as a change in the sense of time. Tone's sound resonated as if it were the sonic visualization of digital data processing speed, and his collaborators responded by increasing the tempo of their own performances. - Minami Hatanaka (Chief Curator, ICC) Recording Information Track 1. 17:41 Yasuhisa Tone "MP3 Corruption Piece" <Solo> Track 2. 30:31 Yoshio Otomo × Jim O'Rourke <Duo> Track 3. 25:32 Yasuhisa Tone ("MP3 Corruption Piece") × Yoshio Otomo × Jim O'Rourke <Trio>
