performance based on the synestesia. The confusing of the senses special strong with new born. i the first 6 months of our lives the brain can not discriminate between the senses. so taste becomes light, light becomes pain, sounds become visual. the same kind of mix was happening at a politic level in japan . no clear direction and osawa started to define it.

a performance I have done with monique van kerkhof, bo, nie and zowi oudendijk and many more performers at the unu in shibuya tokyo. the performance was layout and tested in a 3d model of the space.

16 inches is the offset of a stone at stone hedge that was errected in 1965 after it felt down. but was placed 16 inches of it original place. At that time the people doing the restoration thought they where exactly. But later computer simulation showed that the original placement was 16 inches off. With all our technology and pretensions we where so much more inaccurate then our before-before-before grand parents. This concept was used in a performance that Monique van kerkhof and I did in New York to illustrate the lack of consciences of current societies about out past. the flyer was also 16 inches, represented by a closeup picture of a stone on the edge of the dover channel.
