I had the incredible honor of collaborating with 新素材研究所 (New Material Laboratory), the architectural firm of Tomoyuki Sakakida and renowned photographer/architect Hiroshi Sugimoto and Japanese/Global fashion brand Goldwin on the interior design of their new flagship stores in London and Seoul. As a composer/sound designer, I created a 70 minute composition that explores themes of coexistence and harmony between humanity and nature. The piece I wrote is composed of numerous asynchronous layers slowly evolving over time and is dispersed through custom speakers by WHITELIGHT and is composed from field recordings collected from around the globe.I am grateful for the opportunity to collaborate with a team who recognizes what a critical role sound plays on one’s perception and experience of a space and as a key component of overall interior design. Big thanks to @goldwin_jp @goldwin_global @goldwin_london @goldwin_seoul hiroshisugimotoart @masashisansan @yimanaka photography by @takashi_kawashima Next up New York, Tokyo and Kyoto.

We lost Lauren a year ago today. Our hearts are profoundly broken yet at the same time so full of love and gratitude for all she was and is and will continue to be.

Really missing Lauren today. She was my light, my love and my song. It’s crazy to think it’s nearly been a year. Time distorts and expands and contracts but the grief and loss remain an atemporal constant.

I directed, filmed and composed the music for this film for Loewe to commemorate the opening of their new flagship store Casa Loewe Omotesando Tokyo. #loewe #loeweomotesando #coreydavidfuller

ALTERNATIVE KYOTO | AUDIO VISUAL INSTALLATION

Synichi Yamamoto and I were invited to present our audio visual installation work Sanctuary at ALTERNATIVE KYOTO, an art festival held across various locations in Kyoto Prefecture, Japan.
The installation was hosted at the Muko Shrine, a historical shrine founded in 718 AD in Muko City, Kyoto Prefecture, and was created using a 12 x 3m LED screen and was reconstructed from a 2020 work by Corey Fuller by the same name. The ambient artwork, with its slowly shifting, vibrant sonic and visual landscapes created a warm and healing atmosphere in the tranquil space of the shrine after sunset. The space was crowded not only with fans of digital art but also with families and residents who spent long hours gazing at the ambient artwork as time passed by imperceptibly.

THE NEXT CHAPTER | ORIGINAL FILM SCORE + INSTALLATION

I was commissioned to score Sora Hokimoto’s next film その次の季節 (The Next Chapter) a feature length documentary about nuclear tests conducted by the US government in the 1950s in the Bikini Atolls and the Japanese fishermen that were inadvertently exposed to the nuclear blasts. As a prelude to the film, Hokimoto held an exhibition at Machikado Gallery in Kochi, Japan featuring a multimedia installation with scenes from the film. It featured a new multi-channel long form compostion for piano, cello, electronics and field recordings made in the fishing villages in Kochi, Japan as well as several other compositions from the film score and offered a preview of the upcoming film and soundtrack.

SANCTUARY | QUIET SOUNDS FOR A TIRED CITY | AUDIOVISUAL INSTALLATION

20 FEBRUARY-22 FEBRUARY 2020 | YOYOGI GYMNASIUM, TOKYO, JAPAN

DURATION: 35:00

Sanctuary
sanc·tu·ary | \ ˈsaŋ(k)-chə-ˌwer-ē

1. refuge or safety from pursuit, persecution or other danger.
2. a nature reserve.
3. a holy place; a temple.

SANCTUARY is a audiovisual installation made in collaboration with visual artist Synichi Yamamoto. Commissioned by H.P. France for Rooms 40 at the Kenzo Tange designed Yoyogi Gymnasium, SANCTUARY was designed to provide a quiet space amidst a bustling arts trade show where visitors could seek respite and find solace. It was conceived to address the question, “What is a sanctuary in modern urban society?” Historically, temples, shrines, cathedrals and nature provided a tired population a public space for collective and personal solace. As the role, presence and significance of each of these has diminished, where can we find find quiet now? The places where we seek solace is obvious…smartphones, TV and increasingly virtual spheres have become the preeminent forms of escapism, and yet none of these seem to quiet our souls. Why does quiet space seem more elusive than ever? SANCTUARY offers one such response to this question. Consisting of a long form composition of slowly modulating sound and imagery for a multichannel, generative sound environment and overlapping and evolving processed landscape projections, SANCTUARY creates stillness and space; an urban sanctuary.
