自由と無限空間「大調和」世界観のを捉えるdーk ライブ。
D-K LIVE COVERS A VIEW OF THE WORLD OF
FREEDOM AND UNLIMITED SPACE, 'A GRAND HARMONY"

In ancient times, art and science were one. The work of Leonardo Da
Vinci is an example. Similar to a heartbeat, science and art expanded
in different directions, with their forms of expression and
information becoming separate entities, and so gained their “freedom.”

However, just as a heartbeat, these two must necessarily fuse
together again, and become one. In this dynamic, yet exceeding
dialectical contradictions, is the next stage of a new truth…
Computer technology is one of the ultimate achievements of modern science.

Kakejiku is a uniquely Japanese form of artistic expression that has
survived the test of time.

Bringing them together in a moment of inspiration is an example of
science and art being reunited. The result is a change in the way
people respond, think and shape their future.

I have no doubt that DK will become an inspiration for great visions
and practical discoveries around the world. Within this I find its true essence.
