Tomoko Kawasaki x Masashi Tsuji "Music and Seitai 1: Conversations for Befriending Sound"

Kawasaki: Tsurusaki, when do you listen to them?
Tsurusaki: I don't remember why I started listening to them, but it might have been in one of the random albums I borrowed a long time ago. Kicell's songs, the moment they start playing, I feel this "fuwaa" feeling in my chest (laughs).
Kawasaki: (laughs)
Tsurusaki: So I listen to them sometimes. It just feels good, a "fuwaa" feeling.
Kawasaki: You keep saying "fuwaa fuwaa." Is it that you want to keep listening to this slow feeling?
Tsuji: Yes, that's right. It makes me want to walk, and I totally understand the "fuwaa" feeling (laughs). It feels very airy, like it invites the wind in.
Tsurusaki: It has a nostalgic feel, like I can see colors. Like the colors of a sunset. The sensation is just "fuwaa."

Starting from Noguchi Seitai, Tomoko Kawasaki, a Seitai instructor who views health education as an artistic activity and has expressed her philosophy through publications such as Sadosha's "Seitai Taiwa Tokuhon" series, now presents a new book about music and seitai. In this conversational book, she interprets music from the perspective of "seitai" — focusing on the body's movement characteristics, body types (taikei), and qi — using songs brought in by participants as material.
From Bob Marley to Fishmans, Jimi Hendrix to RC, Kicell to CAN, Taeko Ohnuki, Shuta Hasunuma, Fuyu ni Wakarete, Umibi, and Weather Report. By exploring how we listen to music—influenced by personal worries, memories, and environment—we can understand the state of our bodies, comprehend health, and ultimately recognize the body's "demands."
This book practices and highlights that the indescribable pleasure and comfort felt while listening to music, and the memories and experiences associated with it, are intensely personal yet can also be shared by spending time listening together—and that this act itself is therapeutic. It also includes columns titled "Music and Seitai Talk" interspersed throughout the dialogues.
