“Communication with music can reach beyond borders both defined and perceived. Expressing this to its fullest potential is a new interactive & music event called “Synchro.” Making the connections across two sides of the globe are Tokyo and New York. These two meccas of avant-garde and cutting edge technology will provide a base for this new challenge in online collaboration. A new object called Synchrobot will be present to document the event in real-time, adding an element of atmosphere and inter-connectedness for the sake of viewers and performers on both sides. Two graphic artists make different objects based on the same way of thinking. New York’s SUPERCORE and Tokyo live space LOOPLINE will be the launching pad for this truly unique musical vision. We are going to be ONE.”
