Video installation featuring sixteen 85-inch large monitors arranged in a 16 m x 8 m gallery space. The looped video on each monitor is paired with a different sound and chord, and as the visuals and audio played at their respective cycles mix together in the large gallery space, they create a one-of-a-kind, once-in-a-lifetime experience.

I directed the opening visuals for the TV anime Detective Conan. Rather than simply putting together a standard opening, I wanted to somehow incorporate a “mystery,” and after thinking it through, I based the concept on the fact that the mysterious character revealed in this film is the one-eyed man, and decided to embed a message in the visuals when the left eyes of the main characters appearing in the footage are closed. To tie in with the film title as well, I structured the sequence so that Conan runs from Shibuya to Takeshiba Pier, and came up with a gimmick in which letters appear when half of the screen is mirrored along that route. During the broadcast period, I couldn’t help feeling like I was being chased by many detectives, so I couldn’t relax, but it seems many people took on the challenge of solving this mystery, and as a result it became a very enjoyable opening sequence for me personally as well. I was quite anxious because I couldn’t find the letters “W” and “T” for a long time, and I still remember the strange feeling of joy and relief mixed together when I finally found them at the intersection of the Shibuya pedestrian overpass and Shinichi’s Bridge. I would be happy if those who watched it would take a moment to think about what kind of mystery might be hidden within it.
