Hekohyon Nine | FICFYON NINE [2009 remix] | Re-edited in 2009 (original version produced in 2006) | 5 min. 48 sec. This work was planned and produced in conjunction with participation in “Toride Art Project 2006.” Except for the puppets in the work, the riverbank, buildings, river, sky, and other elements are all real things filmed while staying in Toride City. By collaging these elements and layering model animation, a “landscape of memory” that does not actually exist was reconstructed. The exhibition presented at “Toride Art Project 2006” was a video installation (image projection on walls) in a former sewage treatment tank space within the site of an abandoned sewage treatment plant called “Shuumatsu Shorijo” (“Final Processing Plant”). The excessively wide aspect ratio of the screen was determined by the proportions of the concrete wall at the time. (Width: 7 m; using three projectors) For a solo exhibition the following year, in 2007, a first “re-edited version” was produced. Materials obtained during a trip to the Spring Koshien tournament (people, national flags, audio, etc.) were added. In 2009, a second re-edited version of this work was produced. With music and sound design by Morihiko Hara, all audio was replaced.
