Video link: https://vimeo.com/166030181 Ruin Porn is an intense sensorial journey into the future past of a dance as a ritual and of a theatre as a site. Four personas that are gradually materializing out of the cloud of light and sound, are both pathetic ruins of what was before and a never fulfilled promise of what is yet to come. They are creatures forever caught in between departing and arriving into the present moment of the performance.

In Search of Japanoise Globalizing Underground Music
16 In Search of Japanoise Globalizing Underground Music David Novak In 1990, I had just returned from a year of teaching English in Japan, so I was surprised when I came back to college in Ohio and started to hear about “Jap- anese Noise Music.” Some cut out the “music” idea altogether and called it all “Japanese Noise,” and others just compressed it to “Japanoise.” The name was supposed to identify a specic Japanese type of “Noise,” which was already a pretty vague genre name. Some friends added that its top artists mostly came from the Kansai region and the cities Osaka and Kyoto where I’d been living. I’d run into some noisy punk rock and experimental music in little under- ground record stores and small clubs around Japan … but Japanoise? I had never heard of it until I was back in the United States, when the Boredoms’ LP Soul Discharge found its way to the college radio station where I was a DJ, and tapped into the emerging independent music scene. At the time, the ow of underground cassettes, CDs, and vinyl into the station was increasing on a daily level. But dropping the needle on Soul Discharge released the most spectacularly dissonant racket I’d ever heard, tog- gling through a spectrum of styles and sounds. Sometimes Boredoms sounded like a hardcore band, sometimes a random Dada cutup of popular culture: it was desperately heavy but also funny as hell. You couldn’t possibly take it seriously, but, at the same time, it demanded your full attention.

KLUBB KANIN presenterer: KK NULL / JULIEN OTTAVI/ GISLE FRØYSLAND/ CLOUDBUILDER Den japanske noise legenden KK NULL og multikunstneren JULIEN OTTAVI er på Europa turné sammen med VJ og kunstner GISLE FRØYSLAND. Oslobaserte CLOUDBUILDER åpner kvelden! ROCKHEIM Lørdag 22. oktober kl. 20.00. GRATIS INNGANG! Konserten avholdes i samarbeide med Musikkteknologidagene, MUSTEK, NTNU. --- KK NULL http://kknull.com/en/ (real name : KAZUYUKI KISHINO) was born in Tokyo, Japan. Composer, guitarist, singer, mastermind of ZENI GEVA and electronic wizard. One of the top names in Japanese noise music and in a larger context, one of the great cult artists in experimental music since the early 80's. In 1981 KK NULL studied at Butoh dancer, Min Tanaka's "Mai-Juku" workshop and started his career by performing guitar improvisations in the clubs in Tokyo. He continued by collaborating with MERZBOW for two years, and joining the band YBO2 (with Masashi Kitamura, the chief editer of "Fool's Mate" magazine and Tatsuya Yoshida, the drummer of RUINS) and starting the improvised noise/rock trio ABSOLUT NULL PUNKT (with Seijiro Murayama, the original drummer of Keiji Haino's FUSHITSUSHA), and also GEVA2 (GEVA GEVA) with Tatsuya Yoshida (RUINS) and Eye Yamatsuka (BOREDOMS). In 1985 he established his own label NUX ORGANIZATION to produce & release his own works and subsequently the bands such as MELT-BANANA and SPACE STREAKINGS. He also produced the series of "Dead Tech" (compilation albums by Japanese bands) which heralded Japanese alternative music boom internationally from the early 90's to date. In the early 90's he gained world-wide recognition as the mastermind, guitarist and singer of the progressive hardcore trio ZENI GEVA with their extremely heavy sound, releasing five albums produced by STEVE ALBINI (two on Jello Biafra's Alternative Tentacles label) and a few more on other labels such as NEUROSIS's Neurot Recordings.

Hikikomori: ("pulling inward, being confined"): a Japanese term to refer to the phenomenon of reclusive adolescents or young adults who withdraw from social life, often seeking extreme degrees of isolation and confinement. Laser: “Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation” The catastrophe is not coming, it is here. We are already situated inside of it. When the world is holding itself together through the infinite management of its own collapse it is useless to wait for a breakthrough. In fact, to go on waiting becomes madness. That we are deriving pleasure from the repetition of our habits in the midst of the catastrophe is what makes this repetition into a ritual.

Boundary-stretching guitarist Richard Pinhas, founder of the influential French electronic-rock band Heldon, teams with two icons of the Japanese avant-garde – drummer Tatsuya Yoshida, mastermind of warped-prog legends Ruins, and Masami Akita, a.k.a. noise guru Merzbow – to summon a brutally honest, politically potent, sonically tumultuous reflection of the last gasps of the industrial age. Process and Reality, due out September 16, 2016 on Cuneiform Records, marks the first recorded convergence of these three avant- rock giants, though Pinhas has recorded with both Yoshida and Merzbow in the past and all three have toured extensively together in Japan (often joined by the equally iconic guitarist Keiji Haino). The album, recorded in Tokyo during a recent high-profile tour, captures the fevered intensity and violently textured depth of the trio’s collaborative improvisations.

Costume: Cédrick Debeuf Stage Design: Etienne Bideau-Rey Make-up, FX effects: Rebecca Florès Light Design: Abigail Fowler Technical Director: Stéphane Monteiro Graphic Designer: Grégoire Gitton Traductor: Stéphanie Memeteau-Gitton Production & Booking: Guillaume Bordier [email protected] / +33(0)6 64 81 07 98 Production: Tazcorp/ Co-Productions: Ville de Strasbourg (confirmed), Emmetrop (confirmed), CCN Roubaix/Ballet du Nord - accueil studio (confirmed), Centre national de la danse - résidence augmentée (confirmed), Le Générateur (Gentilly) - Accueil en résidence / dispositif DRAC IdF (tbc). La Ménagerie de Verre (Paris) (tbc), etc. For some years now, Guillaume Marie - a French dancer and choreographer, Igor Dobricic - a Serbian dramaturge and philosopher and Kazuyuki Kishino - a Japanese Noise Music composer, collaborate and create together, choosing recent evolutions of the Japanese society for their strong symbolism as the basis of their reflexion. This long-winded work has resulted in the cycle of performances called EDGING THE APOCALYPSE. The first part, EDGING, was first shown in the Ménagerie de Verre in Paris in 2013 and was inspired by the hikikomoris. For this second piece of work, RUIN PORN, the artists have chosen the phenomenon of haikyo (the Japanese word for « ruin ») and related it with dancing, performance and noise music. RUIN PORN is performed by four dancers and a musician. After starting our choreographic and dramatical research with EDGING (2013), we keep on investigating the phenomena that have recently appeared in Japan.
