Entitled, "Taikoz: Taiko, Tradition and Today", the presentation included a talk on the backgorund and cultural context of taiko in Japan, some aesthetic concepts, the internationalisation of taiko, the history and raison d'être of Taikoz, plus lots of photos and videos of taiko in rural Japan, matsuri (festivals) and Taikoz's own original productions. Ian also performed his solo work for kanade-okedo, Waves. Here are a few shots from the day, courtesy of the SSO, AIM and photographer Tim Walsh.
