Tokyo Wonder Site (TWS) hosts an annual sound festival which presents truly experimental projects. This year, from all over the world, many next-generation artists who keep on seeking new expression will be gathered to Tokyo.
Under the unprecedented disaster, the Great East Japan Earthquake, what kind of direction should Tokyo, and indeed Japan as a whole, take in the future? What are the "experiments" that are truly required right now ?
24 projects will be given by the participants who are selected from an open application process, award winners and invited artists.
In addition, Ensemble Modern & TWS Academy and Ken'ichi Nakagawa's performances will be held at the same time.
