電輪塔│Denrin-Tower (from "ELECTRONICOS FANTASTICOS!") ［Installation / Performance］
　
リズミカルに明滅するブラウン管テレビが埋め込まれた電波塔。テレビから発せられる電磁波ノイズを中波ラジオで受信することで音を鳴らす。ラジオを持って近づいたり遠ざかったり、ラジオの種類を変えたり、チューニング・ダイヤルを回したりしながら、様々な音色を空間に鳴り響かせる。やがては空間に複数本の《電輪塔》を建造、受信と送信の舞いを踊りながらその周りを練り歩く『電磁念仏祭り』を構想している。
This tower is fitted with a cathode ray tube television set that flickers on and off rhythmically. If you bring a radio close to the tower, the radio receives the electromagnetic wave noise emitted by the televisions, making sounds in sync with the flickering light. The quality of the sound can be varied depending on the distance between the tower and the radio, or the radio type, and by adjusting the tuning dial on the radio. By constructing multiple Denrin-Towers in a space and changing the way each one flickers, an Electromagnetic Bon Festival is born out of performers processing around the towers in a dance of receiving and transmitting.
