Audiovisuelles Werk
Created in 2014, xtx to is an audiovisual piece that focuses on Raymond Queneaus’s text
‘Exercies de style’(1947), translated into Japanese, as a visual image and sounds of
reading. ‘Exercises de style’ is a collection of 99 retellings of the same story, each in a
different style. In this piece, I attempted to create a new variation by developing a
phoneme by reading the text. In the musical part, all sounds are created by sounds of
reading aloud, and for the visual part, I used scanned images of the translated text of
‘Exercises de style’ as visual image.
