EYE

Yamantaka ∈Y∋ is a visionary of radical sound and image, best known as the founder of the‬ legendary avant-noise group Boredoms. Since the 1980s, his kaleidoscopic output—spanning‬ noise, psychedelia, performance art, and visual collage—has shaped Japan’s experimental‬ scene and reverberated globally. From performing with Sonic Youth and Nam June Paik to‬ launching a chaotic radio residency on NTS, ∈Y∋ is an architect of organized disorder. His‬ infamous performances, including driving a bulldozer into a Tokyo venue, are part of‬ underground lore. Still shapeshifting, he continues to push limits of sonic assault and ecstatic‬ form across media and continents.‬
