"the GARDEN" by Yukitomo Hamasaki
"The GARDEN" is a work based on the methodology of field recording. However, the natural and urban sounds in this work were not recorded by the artist himself. Instead, all sound materials were recorded or downloaded from various websites in the Internet.
Yukitomo considers the inside of the Internet as one of the new fields for “behaviors”. The field recording sound, both natural and social sound, can be regarded as traces of “behaviors.” In other words, the “behaviors” include all phenomena in our community, on the earth. The “behaviors”, which are done in the real world, are done in the online world as well. The Internet can’t make natural sound by itself. However, we can listen natural sounds in the Internet world. The real and online world is not contrasting structure, and the Internet world is the new field, new locality and new domain/territory/region for the “behaviors.”
In “the GARDEN,” all sound materials were selected arbitrary from the online world, and there are no relationships between each sound. All natural sounds in this piece were recorded in various time and space, and all performed sound were created based on various thoughts, tastes, genres and cultural background. Then, all these sounds were edited to compose as one piece. “The GARDEN” is the work with removing personal ID and locality of sound files, then, reconstructing them in the new context based on the aesthetic of the artist
The working method of “the GARDEN” followed models of planting process of Japanese and European gardens. The gardeners gather stones and plants from various places in the natural world. The stones and trees in the gardening process have similarity with the sound files, which are edited and processed in the composing process. Like sound files in “the GARDEN,” the temporal and spatial meanings of building materials are detached and modified in the gardening process. The garden is constructed as the new land as the result of bricolage of natural materials coming from various time and space, which is conducted by the aesthetic of creator.
The process of making gardens is directed by the form of personal aesthetic ultimately and has the similarity with the concept and working method of this work. The title, "the GARDEN," comes from this reason.
In addition, we’d like to mention that some ironies were included in this work, which was started to produce after March 11th of 2011 in Japan.

" the GARDEN "はフィルドレコーディングという手法をベースに制作された作品です。しかし、ここで使用されているサウンドファイルは、外の自然や街中で作者自身によって録音されたわけではなく、全てオンラインの様々なwebsiteから録音およびダウンロードされたものです。
Yukitomo Hamasakiは、インターネットを新しいフィールドのひとつとして捉え、オンライン上に存在する音をcaptureし、プロセッシングし、今回の作品すべての音をcomposeしました。
フィールドレコーディングの対象となる音は、自然の音も社会的な音も、すべて「営み」だと言えます。つまりこの「営み」とは、地球という共同体の中で起こっている全ての事象と言い換える事もできるのです。そして、現実の世界で行われている営みは、オンライン上でも同様に行われています。
インターネットは、こういった営みの中の１つの存在です。インターネットそのものは、自ら自然（の/に）音を発することはできません。しかし、我々がインターネット上で自然の音を聴く事は出来ます。実社会とインターネット社会は対比構造なのではなく、場所的・領域的な意味での新しい１つのフィールドが立ち上がったと考えています。インターネットの世界は「営み」のための新しいフィールドのひとつなのです。
Yukitomo Hamasakiが今回素材として使った音は、それぞれのサウンドファイルの間には関連性が一切なく、恣意的に選ばれたものです。使われた自然音は様々な時間や場所で録音されたものですし、演奏されている音はプレイヤーの趣味思考/宗教観/思想が様々なものをチョイスしました。こういった音が、最終的に作者によってエディットされひとつの形に構成されています。言い換えるなら、今回の作品は、そのサウンドファイルの持つ場所性やパーソナルなIDを最終的に排除し、作者自身の美意識に従って変容され構築されたのです。
今回の作業行程は、日本庭園やヨーロッパの庭の制作プロセスを模範しています。「庭」という空間は、作者が他の土地からの石や木々を一カ所に集め穴を掘り水辺をつくって空間を変容させて行くという行程によって、出来上がります。この庭園製作行程における石や木々は、composingにおけるサウンドファイルのエディットやプロセッシングにおきかえることができるでしょう。
庭園作家は、自然界に存在する石や植物をあちこちから集めてきて一つの庭を構成しますが、庭園における植物や石も、今回の作品のサウンドファイルと同様に、日時や存在としての意味性から切り離された存在です。実存する自然界の物を他の場所から持ってきて、構築し、庭園作家の美意識に基づいて新しい空間を作り上げます。
これらに着目し制作された本作は、最終的に個人的な美意識の形式(form of personal
aesthetic)に回帰するというコンセプトと庭を作るプロセスの類似からヒントを得て、" the GARDEN
"というタイトルにされました。
去年の3.11以降から制作を開始された本作は、いくつかのアイロニーを含めて制作されたということも同時に示しておきます。

+ Michal Martychowiec
Born in 1987 in Lublin, Poland. He studied visual arts at Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design in London (2009-2011) (graduated with a Distinction).
In 2012 he moved to Berlin, where he lives and works.
From 2007 Martychowiec has been creating a number of topical photographic series, as well as video projections and extensive installations using diverse media: photography, film, drawing, objects, text, neons.
Artist’s practice is a means by which to explore, by alternative means, philosophical ideas that complement his research. He applies notions of Eastern philosophy with a direct reference to the European aesthetics. He is concerned with historic phenomena brought into contemporary contexts, by creation of which he questions and reinterprets existing forms and ideas. His work is characterised by minimalistic aesthetics.
At the same time, Martychowiec collaborates on opera productions creating installations, which are specific reinterpretations of time and space, and incorporate different media.
The artist creates documentations of considerable problematic exhibitions by raising an individual dialogue with history and art.

Andy Graydon
Andy Graydon was born and raised in Maui, Hawaii and originally trained as a filmmaker. Both experiences have been influential on his current work, which is focused on the interaction of media and environment in the forming of personal and social subjectivities. Taking the form of projected light and video installations, photographs, sound works, and architectural interventions that are attuned to site and context, Graydon’s work explores the interplay of phenomenal, ecological, and social constructions that make up our composite notion of place.
Much of this work uses cinema and pseudo-cinematic forms (including sound) to address concerns familiar to environmental art, while extending concepts of the environment to encompass the role of mediation in constructing and modulating natural and built environments, as well as "the environment", or the ground of our existence.
Graydon describes many of his projects as “science fiction ecologies,” suggesting that what is most important are the speculative potentials that circulate through an environment ? the what-ifs and the parallel dimensions; real and potential traumas and erasures; reversals of scale and time course; conflations of fictional and factual existence. Graydon’s work tries to engage the future dynamic latent within the present material existence, inviting transformations of both the environment and the perceiving subject.
Giuseppe la Spada
Giuseppe was born in Palermo in 1974. In 2002 he graduated with honors in Digital Design at the European Institute for Design in Rome, where he remained as a professor until 2004.
In 2002 he was invited to “Opera Totale 7” as one of the five best emergent Italian web designers.
In 2006 the European Institute for Design in Rome conferred him the prize for best carrier in Visual Arts.
In 2007 he won the prestigious Webby Awards, thanks to an ecological web project: the website “Mono No Aware” in support of the project “Stop Rokkasho” founded by Oscar winner Ryuichi Sakamoto. That same evening also David Bowie, Beastie Boys and YouTube founders received an award. In 2008 he worked with Sakamoto and Fennesz during the tournèe “Cendre”, which ended with the unforgettable show at Ground Zero in New York.
In 2009, together with the musician Con_cetta, he gave life to “Afleur”, a live show which in 2010 he also declined in a very particular object-book, featuring high artistic and ecological value.
In 2011, with the participation of more than 600 people, he staged an impressive human tree in Piazza Duomo, Milan, in order to raise public awareness on the problem of pollution.
The exclusive use of natural elements (water in the first place) positions him as one of the artists most sensitive to environmental issues. One of his peculiar characteristics is the ability to translate communication needs and raw ideas into 360° creative projects, making skillful use of all the different media available today. He lives and works in Milan.

Jacob Kirkegaard
Jacob Kirkegaard is a Danish artist who focuses on the scientific and aesthetic aspects of resonance, time, sound and hearing. His installations, compositions and performances deal with acoustic spaces and phenomena that usually remain imperceptible. Using unorthodox recording tools, including accelerometers, hydrophones and home-built electromagnetic receivers, Kirkegaard captures and contextualizes hitherto unheard sounds from within a variety of environments : a geyser, a sand dune, a nuclear power plant, an empty room, a TV tower, and even sounds from the human inner ear itself.
Based in Berlin, Kirkegaard is a graduate of the Academy for Media Arts in Cologne, Germany. Over the last fifteen years, Kirkegaard has presented his works at exhibitions and at festivals and conferences throughout the world such as Club Transmediale in Berlin, James Cohan Gallery and Diapason in New York as well as Museum of Jurassic Technology in Los Angeles and Museum of Contemorary Art in Denmark. He has released five albums (mostly on the British label Touch). Jacob is also a member of the sound art collective freq_out.
