What’s up My Future Friends, this is KITE0080 From Musics the Hang Up… Welcome to the official release of “A Book of Visual Signalwave”. In this book you’ll experience the feels and emotions found in Japanese television from the years 1980 to 2001. The world of Signalwave and its music has always had a visual side. I wanted to contribute to it in a different way with a focus on a period of time, the commercials, tv and more that we get from the genre. This book is pure Signalwave for the eyes. I hope it sparks creativity in your mind~ — KITE0080

Weather is the state of the atmosphere, such as changes in temperature and pressure. In a broad sense, it refers to various phenomena that occur in the atmosphere in general, including phenomena of various sizes and appearance, from small whirlwinds to global jet streams. In the modern age, TV programs were used to inform us of predicted weather patterns.

In the 1980s, compact cassettes with built-in FM tuners became mainstream in cars. People were able to buy and listen to pre-recorded commercial tapes but more than that, they could use cassette tapes for free music by recording from their own records or FM radio etc. It was a breakthrough for the masses to play in their cars. Here the great hobby of music dubbing began.

At the “prime time” spot during an episodic broadcast, commercials from individual companies would advertise their products and services. Advertisements contained the product names, images and video clips in quick 15-60 second segments. As such, companies would often try to educate, entertain or otherwise turn their product into a household name through rapid showings.

About This Book Now that you’ve experienced the book without explanation, let me introduce you to what I had in mind while creating it. This started off as a couple of tv commercials I was trying to turn into art. As I started making some that were pleasantly aesthetic to myself, it hit me: There are actually a lot of subtle experiences in just looking at a couple of frames. So I started creating what felt like comic book stories out of commercials, which then turned into “How can I take these frames and tell my own story without changing the order the scenes were originally created in?” With the same ideologies that produce vaporwave music, I present to you this book of visual aesthetics. All commercials, TV scenes and everything in between are from the years 1980 to 2001. I found all the clips on YouTube, so I have to say a huge thanks to all those channels who uploaded them. Of course, leave them out in the cold, so I’ve created a playlist that includes all these commercials plus more, so you can experience these scenes in their original form. Thanks for the support. Thanks for allowing me to create this book. Thanks for being part of my artistic expression. — KITE0080
