基礎や基盤を意味する インフラ INFRAという名前は、アーティスト、参加者にとっての新しい基盤を意味しています。

Berlin’s 3hd Festival and Tokyo-based EBM(T) Gallery are combining forces to work on インフラ INFRA 2017 in Tokyo, running August 19 to 26.

An ambitious festival of art, music, and thought in the digital age, the program unfolds in museums, galleries, clubs, and online.

The name インフラ INFRA is a play on the abbreviated form of ‘infrastructure,’ and breaks new ground for participants.

Artists

Aurora Sander

The Berlin based duo consisting of Ellinor Aurora Aasgaard and Bror Sander Berg Størseth constantly serve up fresh perspectives on the world, tongue in cheek, jaws scraping off the ground. The objects produced by the duo are caught in between form and function, art and design, discourse and disgust. Aurora Sander reacts to the intrinsic structures of the art world, of socialization, distribution, value creation, judgement, and accruement, to turn some tables, but making sure the tables look damned good on the way round.

Nobukazu Takemura

Nobukazu Takemura is a Japanese artist and a composer with a child’s sensibility. He’s been active since the early 90s, focusing his activities on order formation and its processes, quests, and spontaneity through play and affect. Takemura has occupied a unique space between post-rock, electronica and modern experimental music, producing albums Child and Magic, Songbook and Zeitraum. He has broadened his creative output from music into video, installation, painting, poetry, and theater from the turn of the millennium.

DJWWWW

DJWWWW’s unique style has been often described as the sound of the internet. Raised in Yamaguchi, he is co-founder of the blog SIM and the label Wasabi Tapes. His album “U.S.M!” released in 2015 has been cited as the best work of the year from The Wire. His cassette album Arigato, released on Orange Milk Records, was selected in Tiny Mix Tapes as one of 2016’s favorite 50 music releases.
