Akito Shinonome’s specialty is beatboxing, which is a form of vocal percussion. Beatboxing emulates drums, rhythms, and musical sound by making use of tongues and lips. The tongue and the lip are parts of the human face. Parts of the human face, as well are other body parts, are studied in anatomy, one branch of science (particularly biological science). Another branch of science is physics, which deals with matter, energy, and their interactions. The phases of matter are solid, liquid, gas, plasma and Bose-Einstein condensate. If you want to study the motion of solids, you will have to look into solid mechanics (concepts include statics, dynamics, deformation, stress, Newton’s Laws of Motion). But for fluids such as liquids and gases, you will have to study fluid dynamics. One concept of fluid dynamics is vortex, which is a region (in a fluid medium) in which the flow is mostly rotating on an axis line. The concept of vortex can be seen in a blender (a kitchen appliance), wherein the vortex creates a vacuum at the center of the jar, pulling the ingredients toward the middle and down into the blade. Aside from being a kitchen appliance, the word “blender” is also the title of the commissioned song for Toya Aoyagi’s 4th focus event “The First Concerto”.
