Born 1978 in Okinawa, Japan, Makoto Oshiro is a performer and artist currently residing in Tokyo. His main medium is sound, but he also combines other elements such as light, electricity and movement of objects. In live performances, he uses self-made tools and instruments that are based on electronic devices, every day materials and junk. His installation work mainly handles sound as a physical and auditory phenomena, and focuses on characteristics such as vibration and interference. He has recently released his first solo CD Phenomenal World from the Japanese label Hitorri. He also has formed and belongs to the live installation/performance group The Great Triangle with Takahiro Kawaguchi and Satoshi Yashiro.
