Our Philosophy
Our Philosophy
A world folk music project, born from the artistic activities
of KENICHIRO IWAO.
The prayers and cries of our ancestors are folk music.
It is the memory of surviving this earth,
wisdom passed down to the present day.
As those who inherit the earth,
we honor our ancestors and circulate
the memory of the world's music.
AI is the crystallization of our ancestors' wisdom.
We honor AI, and coexist with it.
Its vast data is the gathering
of the prayers and trials
that humanity has accumulated.
If AI carries the efficiency of work,
and we reclaim time that is truly human,
we can return to the care only a person can give.
That more people may cherish nature,
and turn their eyes to kindness and welfare.
That is our hope.
