SUPPORTED BY
Futori: Born in 1972. From graphics to illustrations, he creates a variety of works in order to spread cheap and pop arts to the public. He takes creating the mass consumption art, which look as products, as your mission. To achieve this mission, he has created characters, logos, design works and animations with his support members. Contributed to "Cyzo" magazine, "Wired" magazine and the game "Jetset Radio". His works were featured in Hong Kong's popular magazine "Milk" and "American Illustration" in 2002. He also regularly provides his works to Sega and Vibe.
Nordform Crew: They have been organising many underground events at Soul Masters Cafe since 2000. Established "Nordfrom Crew" in 2002 in order to take a new step with the theme: life, sound and design. Not only as a residential DJ for "Dot Soso", but also they deal with an interior design as well as an installation. Their original label has started since this year. As the first movement, a compilation CD will be released in June.
