- intext "Voice Transaction"
As global communication through AI and automated translation expands, messages become detached from their original intent and start to take on different connotations, are misunderstood and become consumed. This exhibition explores the implications of this phenomenon.

Graphic designers Yusuke Mimasu, Hiroshi Toyama and programmer Takehisa Mashimo form intext, reconsidering the present state of text, image and sound media communications, instead giving rise to a universal message in relation to language and culture. Their usual day jobs concerning graphic design or programming requires the mediation of adequate information for humans and computers respectively, but their focal interests lie not in the contents of the mediated information, but rather in the message or experience contained within text, image and sound themselves that help transmit the information. Their works have been shown at a joint exhibition at The National Museum of Art (as phono/graph, a group of artists that intex belongs to), Osaka, Japan Media Arts Festival, Kyoto, and Art Basel Hong Kong (Hong Kong) and others. They joined a joint exhibition “Dicoding Wonders” curated by Kodama Kanazawa in Kyoto in 2024.
