The performance of SHOJIKI by Muku Kobayashi (JP), Mitsuru Tokisato (JP) analogically connects the two movements of “Rewinding a magnetic tape” and “Rewinding a curing tape.” The magnetic tape, which is a sonic reproduction medium, is coated with a powder that can be magnetized, called a “magnetic substance;” on the other hand, curing tape is coated with an “adhesive agent.” Sounds can be recorded, played back and erased on magnetic tapes many times, and on the other hand curing tapes are made for temporary adhesion, and therefore can be taped on and peeled off several times.
