Synopsis

“Combining the comical and the absurd, I created six funny faces to animate the images of Japanese vowels: A I U E O NN in “Image”, “Letter”, and “Voice”. A I U E O NN Six Features is a video piece in which I have simultaneously examined the relationship of words in the Japanese and Roman alphabets with sound and image. The words are very basic letters of vowels which do not have any particular meaning. They are visual representations, yet the form of Japanese hiragana and the Roman alphabet is quite different. The sound comes from an undistorted voice which is initially synchronized with the image, but is later de-synchronized. The images are distorted from the real’ image with a computer (System G developed by Sony).
