Fumio Yasuda and Stefan Winter create three soundscapes. After the catastrophe of Fukushima Stefan Winter travels through the Land of the Rising Sun to find specific noises and sounds in order to produce a new acoustic environment in conjunction with Fumio Yasuda's musical compositions and improvisations. Photographs by Nobuyoshi Araki.
Part I (The human being lives in present and primeval times at the same time) - songs 1-3
Part II (The human being searches for a faraway land of peace, harmony, and bliss) - songs 4 - 7
