I want to create video not as something to watch or as a medium for conveying information, but as a device that transforms space. I installed a video in the entrance of a tenant building in Yokohama. When the door opens, I aimed to create a striking, beautiful space that gives the illusion of being lost in another world.

Trailer movie for the werewolf action game “Datsugoku Gokko Pro” In conjunction with a major renewal, we handled everything from planning and direction to CG production. The theme is “companions.” We made this with the hope that people would build new relationships with their friends in a new place, after connections had grown tenuous during the COVID-19 pandemic.

01/ The main visual for this edition was born from the idea of “interaction between scientists and artists,” my own concept of points in two forms connecting to create surfaces, and dialogue with Sakurai, who has handled the main visuals up to now, designer Maki, and Tsuboi of the Fundamentals Program. The organic forms built from layered lines symbolize the “artist,” while the geometric three-dimensional forms enclosed by planes symbolize the “scientist.” Using a program, I created an animation in which the points of each form connect at random, continually generating new surfaces. The movement of each individual form represents the act of thinking, while the surfaces that are randomly generated and disappear express phenomena that arise incidentally from the dialogue between the two. In addition, by carrying over the circular geometric forms used in previous visuals, this work also suggests a connection to the visuals so far. 02/ At the Fundamentals Fest, the final presentation venue, we used the main visual created for the first time and, by employing printmaking and a plotter, attempted two new experiments: “expanding expression” and “generating in the real world and returning it again.”
