The Human Light — DJ OOF: The Man Who Collects Light and Mixes It Back

We are photographing creators in Paris and Japan.
A new portrait is now live on The Human Light —
a DJ who has spent thirty years mixing sound, image,
and other people’s fragments into something whole.
パリと日本で、表現者たちのポートレートを撮影しています。
「The Human Light」に新しい記事を公開しました。
30年にわたり、音・映像・人々の記憶の断片を一つの作品へと編み続けてきたDJの物語です。

Alongside music, he has built one of the more significant private collections of psychedelic art, and now leads “Be the Change,” a global project asking 80 people around the world what they believe could change it.
