A ensō appears in the space, and the body steps into that ensō. In the space, circles are drawn and swarms of butterflies fly about. When you touch a butterfly, it dies and falls. When you enter those circles or swarms of butterflies, an entirely different world unfolds inside. Ensō, one of the forms of calligraphy and painting in Zen—a circle drawn with a single brushstroke—was traditionally created by drawing a circular form in the air with a staff or similar object. It is said to symbolically express enlightenment and truth, the universe as a whole, and equality. It is also a circle that reflects the mind of the viewer, and its interpretation is left to the viewer.

A video that combines live action with Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF), an AI technology that reconstructs 3D scenes from multiple image datasets. This is the first advertisement in Japan to use NeRF. As a car commercial, it is believed to be the first in the world. In fact, the footage alternates between live-action material and NeRF material, and we focused on making those transitions as seamless and satisfying as possible. We crafted the video so that, together with the car, it feels like racing through a dazzling succession of moments. Reference https://cgworld.jp/article/nerfarata-fukoe.html
