Born in Osaka, 1980.In 2000, Kawaguchi started thinking about field recordings. His interest lies not in the kind of field recordings that focus on sound tones obtained in the field, but on the configuration of sound in a specific space. He creates recorded works using sound-making objects, presents installations, and is active in the field of improvised music.
He plays solo performance, installations, and the member of following groups, Hello (Shinjiro Yamaguchi, Satoshi Kanda, and Takahiro Kawaguchi) / Off Cells (Seiijiro Murayama, Taku Unami, Utah Kawasaki and Takahiro Kawaguchi) / Akibin Orchestra (Masafumi Ezaki's orchestra for empty bottles)
/ Active Recovering Music (Masahiko Okura Slide Whistle Ensemble) / ucnv band

Composing the Whole of Space.
The objects used in Kawaguchi’s performances and installations apparently seems strange, but most of them are the emsemble of phenomena which surface by liberating the daily goods from their uses or definition. Kawaguchi uses things anyone can get; converted kitchen timers, electric fans, and so on, but the effects are far more extended from their original potencial ones. Works made of them are shown with it’s most suitable formats; performances, installations, and CDs. All of them are site-specific, and makes the audience realize the time strongly. He focuses not only playing sound, but on composing the whole space by arranging sound and light.
