About Takami Nakamoto
Takami Nakamoto is a Japan-born, France-based musician, visual artist, 'sound sculptor' and former architect who creates ethereal performances, immersive installations and dreamlike environments that envelop viewers and attempt to challenge the fabric that separates the real from the virtual. In 2011, with French illustrator Noemi Schipfer, Nakamoto co-founded Nonotak, a collaborative project known for their numerous installation and performance pieces based on utilising new and custom built technology to study space using light and sound. Nonotak have shows pieces as well as performed all over the world and collaborated with brands such as Hermes and Adidas. Since releasing his début EP Opacity (2014), made up of coarse grained textures and soaring synths, Nakamoto devised a new and energetic live A/V performance with drummer Sébastien Benoits called Reflections that featured an elaborate lighting set up of strobe lights, projectors and 32 LED bars resting on microphone stands. Nakamoto and Benoits (longstanding collaborators who had chart topping success together as members of their French metal/post-hardcore quintet, Doyle Airence) released the music from the show as an album in 2017 and toured the performance heavily. Now working on a stripped down and immersive solo AV set as well as numerous large projects with Nonotak, Nakamoto looks to establish a release catalogue to go alongside his esteemed installation and performance portfolio.
