Mifuneyama Rakuen was created in 1845, in the late Edo period, on a site spanning 500,000 square meters. Over the course of long, long time, immense rocks, caves, and forests took shape here, and in each era, people have found meaning in them. One can feel that one’s own existence lies upon the long-continuing, seamless continuity of the workings of nature and humankind. teamLab’s “Digitized Nature” is a project in which digital technology, itself immaterial, allows “nature to become art as nature.” Using the forms of the giant rocks, caves, forests, and the garden itself, which has endured for centuries, as they are, we find meaning in these presences that transcend the self through a long passage of time, as “continuous life.” And in the present day as well, we wish to continue layering new meanings onto this place.

A game in which you draw a fighter jet on a card and place it on a monitor, where the fighter jet is scanned and battles against other fighter jets. The fighter jet's attack power, defense, speed, and other parameters, as well as its weapons, are determined by the color, size, shape, and other features of the fighter jet you draw, allowing you to create your very own fighter jet.

An exploration of the tactile textures of the natural world by Onesal What is ASMR? The Japanese art studio Onesal has launched a series of four short films that offer a fresh, visual approach to expressing ASMR. It is called Visual ASMR, or Visual Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response. ASMR is a subjective, euphoric experience characterized by a combination of imaginative emotions and electric-like tingling sensations. Covered in organic elements of vivid colors, natural sculptures set in landscapes that are at once strange and earth-like evolve and grow at a microscopic level in each film. Everything takes place across four otherworldly landscapes, categorized to closely examine interaction, movement, and evolution with surrounding elements. Each shot is composed using elements of nature, architecture, and time-lapse. The work examines textures and tactile elements that morph and interact in unreal environments. This endeavor began by balancing nature and design, and by blurring the boundary between simplicity and complexity in an abstract way.

A video essay that organizes methods for structuring thought by using mind maps, based on the content of a lecture held in the same year. It was created with 3DCG and motion graphics, combining a wide variety of visual expressions. The tree-like diagram of thought is depicted through the metaphor of a maze, with “the fun labyrinth” set as the key visual.
