In 1971 he presented an installation incorporating fire at Gallery Tamura (Tokyo), and produced Alchemy (1971), inspired by the structural film movement.

In the late 1970s he began creating video art, and obtained backing from JVC to produce the video piece Artificial Paradise (1983), which was later screened at Documenta 8. In 1983 he joined forces with Video Cocktail, a group of young video artists, and organized exhibitions at galleries and museums. In 1986 he became Assistant Professor of Conceptual Design at Kyoto City University of Arts.
