This video was created as an innerscape, based on the intuitive visions that arise from hearing her sound, as well as the “poetry” or “words” shared in response to the music she creates, following those impressions.

About - melt into space vol.5 The event “Melt Into Space,” which focuses on ambient and minimal music, will be held on Sunday, October 12 at Otani Memorial Hall, Sapporo Otani University. For its fifth edition, the event welcomes Salamanda from Seoul, Korea, who have earned high praise for their ambient and Steve Reich-inspired minimalist sound, and who also drew attention this year for their duo show with LAUSBUB at WWW. From Osaka, ast midori will perform; they released the EP nnn this past March and present a minimalist soundscape that blends four-on-the-floor beats, glitch, and live instrumentation. From Sapporo, the lineup includes organizer Tsubasa Sato, Junichi OGURO, an official Ableton trainer and professor in the Music Department at Sapporo Otani University, and olololop, a band based in a mixed-use building in Sapporo’s Shiroishi ward known for weaving intricate rhythms. On the visual side, ITOAOI, who has worked on 4s4ki’s music videos and collaborations with MINERAL Osaka and was also nominated for 100 Japanese Video Artists, will present VJ visuals across the entire hall wall. The decorations will be handled by 2=, who have transformed venues for Rising Sun Rock Festival, the hatch’s “The Justice,” SOUNDCAMP, and more. On the sub stage, Rico from LAUSBUB, who recently performed with Salamanda at WWW, will appear as a DJ, and Mei will perform live. Also featured are fui from Kyoto, who participated in the compilation Water Bodies featuring Salamanda’s Yetsuby; arow from Tokyo, who runs the multimedia platform CCCOLLECTIVE and is also active as Cryfff’s dub specialist; Layali, who hosts the regular event “SOKALL” at Salon Tareme; and Yoshihiro Tsukahara, a part-time lecturer in the Music Department at Sapporo Otani University, who has worked on game music and commercial music for titles such as Suikoden and Mario Party. For decoration, MomoMichi, who holds “Momomichi Curry Research Institute” once a month at Salon Tareme, will also join. In the POP UP area, in addition to participants who are also appearing as performers, VJs, and decorators—fui, ITOAOI, and MomoMichi—the unit Kankaku Ijo by Kaito Sasaki, Kaito Hayashi, and Momoha Funaoka, as well as the Sapporo-based coffee shop C-origin, which also has booths at YAGI and PARCO, will be present. In a space that stimulates the senses through multifaceted presentation of sound, image, decoration, and taste, it will be a day where artists gathered from Korea and across Japan come together under one roof.

[iona] First Solo Performance “The Cube of Disquiet” ~ the cube of disquiet September 5 (Fri), 6 (Sat), 7 (Sun), 2025 @ Sunabako, Shimokitazawa [Cast] iona Haguri Kosuke Kento Kanzaki O B A At iona’s first self-produced performance, I created a three-screen video for Act 4 (approximately 8 minutes). The production process itself was also an experience in which my own “inner self danced.”

"Link" is a piece created with the only shared information being the album title and the fact that it is a track using tapping sounds, with pre-existing information (language) kept to an absolute minimum. It is a subjective visual interpretation, approaching the music more sensorially by perceiving the sounds themselves and the “feel” of those sounds. It is a sensory communication trail, and an experiment, exploring the subjective and sensory images received from sound (music), and the “individuality” that emerges when translating those sounds into visual expression. It examines how these elements “resonated” (linked) with the track created by Japanese Footsteps. The project was an experimental process in which ITOAOI created the visuals purely based on the "sound" of the track, imagining and interpreting it through sensory perception. Due to the lack of linguistic constraints, the work evokes a sense of space resonating with the sounds themselves, the overflowing continuity of sound, and the feeling of sounds trapped within. These elements were translated into ITOAOI’s high-purity, subjective imagery and movements. This piece represents the "individuality" that emerged when ITOAOI translated the subjective and sensory images evoked by the music into a visual expression, and how that "resonated" (linked) with the sounds created by Japanese Footsteps—an exploration of the sensory communication between the two.
