XG 1st WORLD TOUR “The first HOWL” FINAL Landing “SHOOTING STAR”

2025
The Tokyo Dome performance held as the finale of XG’s first world tour, 【XG 1st WORLD TOUR “The first HOWL”】. COSMIC LAB created the content by building a unique system that seamlessly and freely integrates live camera footage with motion graphics and real-time VFX. It was an electrifying stage worthy of the finale of a world tour that spanned nearly a year, and a night that made the future of live camera direction feel within reach.

NHK E-tele’s “Mittsuketa!” “Mouretsu ni Hassan!” music video. This song’s theme is to sing, dance, and “Hassan” away the stress you carry every day. From the nostalgic feel of the melody, we aimed for a high-energy video with a cheap, funny vibe reminiscent of the early days of CG in the Showa and Heisei eras. I was responsible for the direction, CG production, and editing, including compositing. Editing software used: Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects

Tohji - Jungle Man

2025
00:02:35
We explored how to create visuals that could stand shoulder to shoulder with the intensity of the track “Jungle人.” As part of that approach, we used motion capture throughout the entire piece to express the raw, visceral movements of the human body. In addition, for certain cuts, we synchronized the movement of a live-action camera with a camera in Blender, incorporating the subtle fluctuations unique to live-action footage into the CG camerawork. Centering the work on “physical movement” that goes beyond computational control, we created a piece that visually maximizes the momentum of the music.

Experience the moment when sound does not merely get “played,” but rises up as a living creature. Sound takes on form, overlaps to create relationships, and behaves like a flock. Changes in intensity and pitch are directly transformed into expressions and movements, unfolding organically within space. By interacting with sound as if touching it, the work offers an intuitive experience of enjoying its transformations. craymons are monsters with clay-like qualities that can take any shape and visualize sound.

Odd

2024
00:02:46
Odd is a video work that focuses on the contradiction between the “mechanical impression of being regularly arranged despite being plants” and the “form that gives the impression of organic movement,” both of which are characteristic of bizarre plants. Real plants are static beings. “If they were to start moving, how would their forms move and change?” By using 3DCG, these elements are blended together, and regular forms are reproduced with photorealistic textures. By expressing organic movement through simulation and animation, a strange and captivating world has been created. Bizarre plants are originally plants that grow in dry land, yet they carry an eerie, damp atmosphere. In other words, by incorporating the Japanese sensibility of “humidity” into the video, the work expresses the “strangeness” inherent in bizarre plants.

Suspensions

2026
Stone, camera, and display are suspended in a straight line. While the camera and the display each perform pendulum motions with different phases, they capture and present the stone in real time. The motionless stone, within this linkage, is constantly transformed as an image. What emerges here is not the movement of the object itself, but a relational fluctuation made visible by the phase difference between the apparatuses. While identification with the camera draws the subject as an “eye” into the interior of the image, the movement of the screen pulls it back into physical space as a body subject to gravity. The shift produced by the asynchronous movements of the camera and the screen, in this back-and-forth, gently suspends the very framework of seeing itself.

Orb / Rot

2026
A display suspended by wire ropes continues its back-and-forth rotational motion according to the principle of a torsion pendulum. The screen shows footage shot while circling a motionless stone. The rotating display and the camera that captured the footage have different periods, and their relationship repeatedly shifts between synchronization and asynchronization. Within this, two appearances emerge in the image: the motion of circling around the stone, and the motion in which the stone itself appears to be rotating. Through both, the work moves between an optical/distant mode of visual experience, which has assumed identification with another point of view, and a tactile/near mode of visual experience that comes into presence through the viewer’s bodily involvement.

Description: This video installation consists of a display that moves up and down and footage of falling rocks projected onto it. The work addresses three spatial dimensions: the “space of images” created by the video, the “real space” in which it is viewed, and the “virtual space” that connects them. In cinema, events and spaces outside the frame are called “off-screen,” and their presence is suggested through sound or the reactions of characters. However, in the contemporary age, where video experiences through computer multi-window displays have become commonplace, it is also possible to recognize the video content itself as an object off-screen. In this work, the bodily act of following the moving display with one’s eyes, together with the reciprocal experience of the video in response, evokes the singular event of “falling rocks.” Yet the visual synchronization/asynchronization produced by the mismatch between the movement of the display and the rhythm of the video continually shifts the perceived location of the object in our minds. Where, exactly, is the stone falling?

Satoko Shibata "Miscellaneous Thoughts"

2022
00:05:02
We developed the idea while exploring a method of adapting the “visual experience that traverses fiction and reality,” which the artist collective Yofu has long valued in its work, to the filmmaking process itself—from shooting to post-production. In practice, the piece was created through a one-take long shot and time-axis manipulation in post-production. During the one-take shoot, the condition for realizing the concept of this music video was that, throughout the chorus as confetti fell through the air, only Satoko Shibata would remain perfectly still. By applying detailed time-axis adjustments to specific sections in post-production, the confetti alone—falling around the motionless Shibata—could be made to move in various ways, such as reversing direction, being drawn toward the center of the screen, or becoming extremely compressed and transformed into a noise-like texture, even though Shibata herself showed no change. The contrast between stillness and motion creates a distortion of reality that forms the basis of the direction. In the middle section as well, by moving the camera while keeping Shibata’s framing fixed, even the background is warped and distorted, and the shimmering paper fragments drifting down in time with the song’s progression create a striking scene that gives the impression of an unreal world, somewhere at the edge of the galaxy. Yofu also created “Behind the scenes of Satoko Shibata ‘Understood’ Music Video” (https://youtu.be/xOK0IlVjdH8), which captures the behind-the-scenes process of the one-take shoot.

This work is an immersive projection mapping piece that sets out from the wall of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building, the heart of Tokyo, and takes the viewer on a journey through the “evolving city of Tokyo” from the perspective of a single person. Depicted through three-dimensional, geometric, and organic imagery, it portrays an individual as a living cell within Tokyo, merging into the core of Metabolist architecture and continually growing, dividing, and being rebuilt together with the city and its music.

At Expo 2025 Osaka-Kansai Expo, in the dedicated theater “499 Seconds: My Gattai” within the Signature Pavilion “Shin-Life Adventure” produced by Shoji Kawamori, 30 participants don VR headsets equipped with cameras and, through VR and MR technologies, simultaneously experience a universe-scale food chain—traveling beyond time and space from memories of the past in an immersive exhibition available nowhere else in the world. Through the “universe-scale food chain” envisioned by Shoji Kawamori, creator of numerous sci-fi works, visitors can experience the pavilion’s theme: “Life is fusion and transformation!” We were responsible for the direction and animation of this hyperspace theater “499 Seconds: My Gattai,” and, using spatial audio technology developed by SoVeC Inc. and Terasaka Bio Inc., we combined it with spatial audio produced by Sony PCL Inc. (hereafter Sony PCL), delivering a completely new audiovisual experience unlike anything before.

A rapidly shifting urban landscape — waves of people, railway networks, buildings, and city lights generate an immense torrent of information. This work intensifies that “excess” through visual techniques such as slit-scan and delay, making the speed and density of changing information visible. Screened at “Toki-no-ma,” an immersive gallery created through the adaptive reuse of the former Hino Junior High School in Hino Town, Tottori Prefecture. Presented in the first opening program, “A Classroom Where the City and Satoyama Intersect.”

At Tokinoma, an immersive gallery in Hino Town, Tottori Prefecture, housed in a repurposed former school, we held the special exhibition “A Classroom Where the City and Satoyama Intersect.” As one of the screening works in the exhibition above, this piece focuses on “satoyama,” and abstractly expresses both its beauty and the issues present in the region.

"Light’s Ancient Strata" Old Rice Warehouse Installation #Hino Town, Tottori Prefecture

2025
00:05:43
This work, presented on August 13, 2025 at the “Neo Lantern Festival” held in Hino Town, Hino District, Tottori Prefecture, simultaneously unfolded a visual presentation and an illumination design that enveloped the entire space. Set in an old warehouse once used for storing rice, it repurposed a dormant space and transformed it into a place that connects local memory with the future. The illumination is not merely decorative; it is an essential element that shapes the rhythm of the space in response to the imagery. Light placed along the walls and beams overlaps with the abstract layers of the video, spreading outward as if embracing the audience’s bodily sense. In a space where the festival’s defining “light” and the installation’s illumination coexist, the traditional light of the festival and the light of contemporary digital art intersected. The theme of the work is “reconstructing the landscape.” It captures fragments of nature and daily life from the Hino District (Hino Town, Kofu Town, and Nichinan Town), then reassembles them into abstract designs. The video evokes memories of the landscape, while the illumination serves to extend those memories throughout the entire space. Viewers can experience the moment when the familiar appearance of the land is transformed by light and imagery, discovering another kind of beauty hidden within the region’s scenery. Underlying the work is a desire to reuse local resources and foster cultural regeneration. By reviving an unused rice warehouse as an art venue, it became an attempt to create new value that honors memories of the past while opening toward the future. The closed-off space of the warehouse was opened up, creating a place where local people could share an experience of being surrounded by light. This installation functions as a mediator that connects land, people, and memory through the unity of video, illumination, and the local community.

Burger Satiation

This video is composed entirely of Chinese characters from start to finish. Using the radicals and structure of the Chinese word “漢堡,” which means “hamburger,” it explains the fictional psychological phenomenon known as “漢堡飽和.” This is a phenomenon in which, after staring at “漢堡” for a long time, one suddenly no longer understands what it is. It is said to be caused by neural inhibition, which prevents the brain from focusing on anything more than a part of the hamburger, causing the whole to be lost and its meaning to suddenly feel unfamiliar. This work is one part of the animation anthology Burger Order.

KIRINJI - Room Dancer feat. Tomomi Oda

2026

A minimal visual work that neutralizes the solitude of the urban dweller through the private ritual of dance. It coolly documents the rough, impulsive movements of a lone girl—gestures intended for no one's eyes but her own. The surreal lexicon scattered throughout the lyrics is rendered via AI-driven 'video-to-video' synthesis. Shunning overt sentimentality, the visual design maintains a detached, almost clinical gaze upon this personal indulgence, yet manages to evoke a strangely intimate proximity.

WonderRoom2.0

2024

This is a music video created for the doujin creative event VOCADUO. It is an experimental work that marked the first time I incorporated character modeling, rigging, and animation into my production process. “Wonder Room” refers to luxury goods and curiosities in Europe around the 16th century. It is said by the composer, sanmal, that the song WonderRoom “2.0” was created with the idea in mind that there is a similar underlying impulse to modern internet content consumption. The video was made with a pixelated visual style that also evokes a sense of nostalgia, depicting a world where one explores a digital realm. Since both the characters and backgrounds were created in CG, pixel-style look development took time. Rather than following a scenario-based flow like an animated film, it was produced with a concept that extends from motion graphics.
