A collaborative project by Leo Okagawa and Simon Whetham, 2019.
Leo Okagawa and Simon Whetham met in Tokyo in 2017 after sharing works with each other. They already began discussing some way of collaborating, not simply by sharing sound recordings but in a more conceptual way.
Leo suggested they compose a short piece each, with a concept in mind, and once complete would share the result with the other, but without explaining the concept behind the piece. Once this stage was complete, Simon had the idea to recompose the other's piece, with their own idea of what the concept was. They then shared the works, once again not explaining the concept behind the recomposition.
The works are almost complete, and it's your turn now. As the next step, please try and guess what the concepts are behind the works. The artists are curious to know the listeners' imaginations
