This play is a reflection on the (im)possibility of accepting diversity and the other. The fragmented body of the neoplasm—the fruit of unstable conditions—overcomes barriers, loves and denies itself and others, wanders around, forgetting its profession. It frequently and with pleasure divides, goes through dangerous palpation, questions the possibility of contact with the experience of the other. Poorly brought up but very successful, it invites us to a trans-species transition.

In Dual Quartet, Kosugi uses four plexiglass tubes containing small speakers that hang from the ceiling aiming sound into the space. Each tube makes a separate sound that corresponds with four small canvases that create light patterns from LED's behind them.
Artist Statement
There are 4 electronic oscillators to produce different audio signals, with pitch-shifters for the 3 of them. The signals are distributed into 2 of the 4 channel amplifiers, as each signal is to be divided into 2, the one to the sound transducers (piezo speakers), and the other to the light transducers(LEDs). The sound transducers are put into plastic tubes and are hung from the ceiling by cables, and the light transducers are put inside the canvases arranged on the wall.
Exhibition
Takehisa Kosugi incorporates mixed-media sound performances and installations that combine everyday materials with electronic technology.
