“Itoshima Art Festival 2014 Spring” Itoshima Arts Farm, Fukuoka, Japan

 
For about 40 years “Tokichiro” was doing business. The owner of “Tokichiro” was honest and kind. They used to have a menu filled with lot’s of variety. People loved this restaurant. I interviewed and recorded with a cassette tape with the people that went there to eat who knew the restaurant well. I put the tape all over the room and played with a tape player. You can hear the voices that the people talk about the memory of the restaurant. Slowly the tape moves. Later you can’t hear the voices in the room because the tape stretched.
