Dumb Type is an artist collective based in Kyoto, Japan founded in 1984. Dumb Type is a group of creative art forms that express the new and daily life of the twentieth century modern and technological world of Japan. During the 1980s Dumb Type created their first show representing the idea of how technology is arising a dark matter through people's daily lives. Members are trained in varied disciplines, including visual arts, theatre, dance, architecture, music composition and computer programming. Their work ranges across such diverse media as art exhibitions, performances, audiovisuals and publications. Dumb Type is known for portraying a dark, cynical, and humorous world in which technology is a way of life. In a 1990 interview in High Performance, the late Teiji Furuhashi, one of Dumb Type's co-founders, described their work as political in nature: "Something Japanese theater never does. Japanese audiences don't want to see that. They want to avoid it. They just want entertainment.
