Nostrils for shots, belly buttons as record adapter and mouth-purses to carry your coins: Gore Galore To Go
What is your relationship to meat?
I've always loved science fiction and horror since I was a kid. When I released my 1st album "PANIC", I made a human flesh MPC and used it as a jacket to convey that I like not only music, but also science fiction and horror. I thought that a musical instrument made of human flesh is full of my favorite elements and everyone will be happy. Since then, I've been making various human flesh items to convey what I like to everyone. I hope everyone will enjoy it.
How did you get the idea to create objects similar to human flesh?
When I turned on the TV at midnight, the movie "The Fly" played on TV, and I thought it would be interesting if humans and something were united. I think I was lucky to turn on the TV.
What materials do you use - how did the idea go into production?
I use silicon. I'm always thinking about what kind of feel and what kind of item it would be interesting to have. It's already a habit. So when I'm shopping or eating, I suddenly come up with ideas. For example, I want to make a shot glass made from my nose.
What inspires you the most at the moment?
Movies, music videos and comics. I like Chris Cunningham's video and Junji Ito's comics. And I was inspired by my friend Yujiro Koyama's funny and crazy comic "TONKATSU DJ AGE-TARO" that theme of DJ and pork cutlet, Disney's work, whatever I'm interested in.
What is your favorite meal and why?
I like natto and I definitely eat it every day. I also like rice because I don't get tired of eating it every day. Of course I like meat.
What are you currently working on - normally you produce music/beats?
Yeah, I always make music. I think most of the songs I make recently include hip hop and techno elements. I also started to make stop motion animation of human flesh items as a new experiment because I was spending more time at home because of corona. I'm making everything from shooting to music, so please check it out.

The future is ...
There are so many things happening all over the world right now and I think we need to work together. I've been influenced by so many people all over the world, so I'd like to make something that many people can enjoy. I will continue to make works, so please look forward to it. Thanks.
