” Production is more about being a “sensitive receiver” than creating and expressing. Listening intently to all kinds of surroundings and then to choose. The attentiveness to never fail to hear a small, whispering voice, and the ability to properly judge things that do not need to be heard. Believing in that kind of will and sensibility increases the density of work and also supports myself. 

– Makoto Nishikawa
