After each coming to the U.S. from Japan in the early 1990's, Reiko and Max met at the New School for Social Research in New York, where they were both studying alternative media in the Media Studies Graduate Program.
With Reiko's strength in writing and visiual storytelling and Max's deep insight on sound and music in film, they started to incorporate thier talent. In 1994, they established MRex Productions and began filmmaking together with strong belief in the fusion of form and content, and the power of media as a communication tool among people.
Though their respective roles in the unit have expanded and overlapped over the years, their visions as the recently arrived residents of the U.S. and their earnest passion for creating crafty multi-layered media art remain consistent and the fiery sparks between visual, audio and story elements in their work continue to be the essence of MRex.
Reiko and Max live in Brooklyn, NY with their daughter Moie and their dog Mr. Bo Bo.
