an excerpt of one of two films about the Japanese shamanic improvisation duo IRO (Toshio and Shizuko Orimo). IRO’s music combines influences from punk, 1970s Free Jazz and ethnic music with ancient Shinto rituals and indigenous ceremonies. Their musical experimentation goes hand in hand with their activist involvement in the peace and anti-nuclear movement and a free-spirited way of life which vehemently opposes commercialism in all its forms.
For Holzfeind’s film project the duo performed in various locations of the Inter-University Seminar House in the Tokyo suburb of Hachioji, a unique example of modern architecture designed in 1964 by Japanese architect and thinker Takamasa Yosizaka. Yosizaka’s ideas about the relationship between humans, nature and architecture, individuality and community, sustainability and peace, as well as his critique of Western civilization in many respects concur with the couple’s animist and pantheist weltanschauung.
Holzfeind juxtaposes IRO’s performances at the Seminar House recorded in the fall of 2018 with their last punk concert in 1987 and found footage of protest movements. The visual juxtapositions and acoustic superimpositions yield an astonishing synthetic impression of their artistic collaboration which spans more than four decades.
