Tokyo University of the Arts diversity monthly project
Talk about “music” of people who can and can not hear

What is the music of people who can not hear?

People who have different experiences, such as deaf performers and artist listeners, musicians, think and talk together to explore new possibilities of music that are different from the “music” that has been captured so far.

Deaf film director Yuri Makihara has considered that “there is music born from silence.” For example, she says that “music” can be felt from the musical film “Westside Story”, the Awa dance, and the dance of the Pina Bausch dance group. And she produced the movie”Listen” (2016) with deaf’s dancer DAKEI. In the silent 58-minute film, the work in which various “music” expressions created by Deaf people have received a great response.
