Tujiko Noriko (ツジコノリコ, born 28 August 1976[citation needed]) is a Japanese musician, actor and director, from Osaka. She has released music on the Austrian label Mego and the German label Tomlab, among others. Much of her music is composed on a laptop and consists of layered samples, electronic beats, keyboards, and vocal melodies.[1] Her lyrics are in Japanese and English. She is currently living in Paris and is also working on experimental short films.
In 2004, she teamed up with Peter 'Pita' Rehberg as DACM, making the album Stéréotypie. In 2005, she collaborated with French artist Saâdane Afif to create film using four texts by French artist Lili Reynaud-Dewar. She also collaborated with Lawrence English and John Chantler on U (2008), and with Nobukazu Takemura on East Facing Balcony (2012).
She has completed two films: Sand and Mini Hawaii and Sun.[2] In Spring 2012 she was artist in residence at WORM, a Rotterdam-based institute for avant garde music and art to record new music. In 2019, she co-directed, starred in, and composed the soundtrack for the film Kuro.
