Outline

“Film Competition for Imaginary Film Music” Screening of winning works + commissioned works

Venue: FRANK cafe/gallery (2F/3F 2-4-19 Ekidori Yamaguchi City) / 12:00-17:00/admission free

Commemorating our 10th anniversary, YCAM asked three composers selected by Ryuichi Sakamoto (10th Anniversary artistic director) ― Masahiro Miwa, Koji Ueno, Ichiko Aoba ― to create “film music for an imaginary film” and called for video submissions inspired by the music. Among 122 applications, winning works are shown at YCAM and other locations in Yamaguchi City, along with related exhibition and screening of works by our commissioned film directors.

Winning works and commissioned works will be shown at FRANK cafe/gallery. What sort of interpretation could serve as a basis for such visual work? Wouldn’t this create an opportunity for us to think again about the meaning of film music, including the relationship between images and music?
