Aki Onda is an electronic musician, composer, and visual artist. Onda was born
in Japan and currently resides in New York. He is particularly known for his
Cassette Memories project – works compiled from a “sound diary”
of field-recordings collected by Onda over a span of two decades. Onda’s
musical instrument of choice is the cassette Walkman. Not only does he capture
field recordings with the Walkman, he also physically manipulates multiple Walkmans
with electronics in his performances. In another of his projects, Cinemage,
Onda shows slide projections of still photo images, shot by himself, as a performance
or installation.
Onda has
collaborated with artists such as Michael Snow, Ken Jacobs, Alan Licht, Loren
Connors, MV Carbon, Oren Ambarchi, Noël Akchoté, Jean-François
Pauvros, Jac Berrocal, Lionel Marchetti, Linda Sharrock, and Blixa Bargeld.
