Wave Weave Sono Obi is the original soundtrack by Alva Noto, composed for a film by Carsten Nicolai.
The project emerged from a collaboration with a 12th-generation kimono textile manufacturer in Kyoto, Japan.
At its core, the work explores the translation of sound into textile form: sonograms of musical compositions serve as the basis for woven structures, connecting acoustic frequency patterns with traditional weaving techniques.

Alongside the original soundtrack, the release includes an alternative soundtrack version and a photographic documentation featuring sonograms, soundtrack visualisations, and film stills.
