This is an animated research work that deconstructs the everyday visual experience of a “room tour” through the manipulation of perspective. Its approach lies in continuously transforming the perspective by distorting the structure of the entire room, while leaving all objects within the space—furniture and small items—completely still. By representing space itself with motion graphics, the work induces a visual illusion in which stationary objects appear to acquire autonomous movement, blurring the boundary between 2D graphics and 3D spatial perception, and unsettling the viewer’s sense of “what exactly is moving?” in this experimental approach.

This is the first installment in the short anime series “What Kind of Home?” featured on TV Tokyo’s “Shinapushu.” Inspired by the Japanese concept of “yaoyorozu no kami” — the idea that countless deities dwell in all things — this work was created around the theme of turning our attention to the small lives and subtle presences that reside in nature. With the hope that children can freely expand their imagination in nature, we aimed for a simple, gentle style of expression by stripping away as many elements as possible. In addition, we focused on a minimal character design with infants’ visual perception in mind, along with movements that feel lovable and endearing.

Music video for “Wonder,” a track from Dangle Candle, the solo album by Kohei Kamoto, who is also a member of DYGL. In this work, we sought to visually express the melancholic texture of the song while also rendering a sense of drifting aimlessly, as if with nowhere to go. Drawing mainly on the texture of 2000s-era games, we constructed a virtual game-like space and created the 3DCG work by combining 3D models, environments, and motion graphics made from scan data of Kamoto himself within that space. By incorporating the uncanny quality of game-like visuals, as well as expressions that intentionally evoke incompleteness and instability, we attempted to expand the song’s world.
