Toshiya Tsunoda


Toshiya Tsunoda is a Japanese sound and installation artist based in Yokohama, Japan. Much of Tsunoda's field recording work intends to capture the character of spaces generally perceived as inert through their subtle auditory characteristics, including those imperceptible to the naked ear. Vibrations, often recorded with contact microphones, therefore feature prominently in his work.
Tsunoda holds an MFA in oil painting from Tokyo University of the Arts. In 1994, he co-founded the WrK record label with Minoru Sato, and would release his first solo LP on the label in 1997.
