“The image is always first and I think of it as a graphic score: a visual basis for composing music”.

Makino Takashi (1978) is an experimental film and video artist living and working in Tokyo. Treating image and sound as elements of equal importance, he produces immersive, cosmic, organic works where music - usually composed by cult musician Jim O'Rourke, with whom Makino Takashi has developed a regular collaboration - unfolds over skilfully created, often abstract images, expanding together into richly layered and dense experiences. Following the screening, Makino Takashi will discuss his work with Floris Vanhoof.
