Wataru Iwata's Letter:

Dear Charles Guiliano, Editor, Berkshire Fine Arts,
 
This is Wataru Iwata emailing from Japan. I’ve been working as a pianist, music composer, visual artist and recently putting more time into digital art.
 
My friend, Erica H. Adams offered to introduce me to you after she viewed and listened to a file I’d sent her of my recent stage work [Miroirs].
 
This is a visualization of the music Ravel composed. Around 100 years have passed since Ravel composed "Miroirs", and we are now able to visualize the vision in that suite through contemporary music (3D audio), body (contemporary dance), and visual programming by 8k projection.
 
Here is the archived movie from last year performance:

On 3 November, we will replay this work with changing plot and direction with updated images.
 
There will be a live streaming also, so I would like to ask you for the review if you're interested.
 
Here are more details about our next performance;

Thank you very much in advance and I hope you find an interest in our work.
 
 
Sincerely yours,
