Set in Tokyo. A message to everyone who pushes beyond their limits and soars higher. With the power to believe in yourself, we’re sure to connect with one another. Moved by the brief from Jordan Brand, inspired by the cast’s stories up to this point, stunned by the staff’s unyielding, never-give-up spirit, and, together with everyone involved, we kept the passes moving like a basketball team, all aiming for the same goal.

SOUL MOTION is an interactive map that uses location tags embedded in uniforms. The sensors capture real-time data and also display records of the past three days, such as weather, total communication volume, visitor numbers, and individual trajectories. When visitors approach the “soil” or “sofa” zones, virtual microbes swarm to those locations, showing how they multiply or decline depending on environmental conditions. A light touch on the sensors makes them scatter, revealing a constantly changing, dynamic map. By visualising invisible processes such as microbes, technology, and the delicate rhythms of human relationships, SOUL MOTION prompts us to reconsider the hidden environments around us and creates an opportunity to rethink the connections between people and between people and nature.

We do not perceive the world we see. We see the world we perceive. Countless spheres of light. As people approach the spheres of light, they shine more intensely, and the surrounding spheres respond in turn, continuing one after another. If you widen your field of view and stare, spheres of darkness, like lumps of darkness that has solidified, also begin to appear. However, these spheres of light and darkness do not exist. The spheres of darkness do not even appear on camera. Nothing such as glass or any other object is present on the surface of the spheres of light; these spheres are made only of light. There is no material boundary surface, and the boundary between the sphere and the body remains ambiguous in perception. However, in this universe, light does not solidify, and it never forms into spherical masses by itself. In other words, these spheres of light do not exist. These spheres are not present in the physical world, but are sculptures that exist in the world of perception: "Cognitive Sculpture / Sculptures of Perception." Their material consists of light, the environment, the body, and perception. Shaped by the experiencer’s own dynamic body and perception, they appear and exist in the experiencer’s own perceptual world. When they exist in perception, that is existence. And the spheres cannot exist even in the world of perception on their own; they are created by the environment. The phenomena produced by the environment are the existence of the work.
