100 Keyboards

Japanese sound artists creates harmonic clouds with 100 toy keyboards

100 Keyboards is the landmark performance by Japanese multi-instrumentalist Asuna Arashi, who tours it around the world. By putting small pieces of wood between the keys of 100 plastic toy keyboards, Asuna makes the keyboards keep the same tone for a long time. The result is a hypnotizing yet imperfect harmonic cloud - because of the cheap instruments’ impurities, the timbre and overtones constantly evolve. A mesmerizing listening experience that will make you forget about time.

ASUNA’s live performances are an experience; textured soundscapes that blur the lines between art and music.”
