In Takahashiʼs work, “Tsukuba rock” (granite) produced at Mt. Tsukuba is used as the
material. With the rock likened to a contrabass bridge, strings (lines) are stretched on the earthʼs surface by using wires. They are connected to a real contrabass covered with plates oflead. The idea is to release sound from the earth / the earth surface / nature such as wind, intothe atmosphere.
