RESOBOX

RESOBOX is the name created from a mashup of the words Resonate and Box.
This Resonating Box envisions a space where artists can meet and collaborate to create new and innovative arts. The space within this Box Resonates, too, shaking up everything inside.

Japanese artists are welcome, and so are the many non-Japanese artists who understand and find themselves being influenced by the arts of Japan.
These artists can meet in RESOBOX, and create new works by adding and mixing in their sensibilities, playing a great role in preserving, and even developing Japanese arts.
In today’s global environment, Japanese arts might not always emanate from Japan alone, but also from places like New York City, where art is highly concentrated and widely disseminated to the world at large.
The founders of RESOBOX believe that by promoting such artists, truly innovative and more sophisticated Japanese arts can evolve, resonating with people all over the world.

The concept of RESOBOX was originally created in August 2009 as a personal art project by Fumio Tashiro – New York composer, bassist and videographer.
Mr. Tashiro and his artist friends created acclaimed works, including the music video The Return of the Jitney Man by Jeff “Tain” Watts, which won an award for best music video at the 2010 Summer NY Awards of The New York International Independent Film & Video Festival.
