"Memorize"

8ch multi-channel sound installation within the Moerenuma Park glass pyramid



8ch sound installation “Memorize” set on the 1F floor “Hidamari (Sunny Spot)” of the glass pyramid within the Moerenuma park in Sapporo. A single acoustic work was produced based on the musical materials collected with the cooperation of the “Pioneer Memorial Museum”, comprising a variety of sounds related to winter and historical ancient winter sounds around the theme of the “Hokkaido winter”, commissioned in 2009 by the Moerenuma Park. (Otaru herring fishing shouts, horse tramway sounds, ice hole sounds etc.) A specially-ordered box for installing speakers was created, and exhibited by hanging from the top of 8 pillars towering over the 1F of the glass pyramid.
