The "Yaoyorozu" visualized through AR
This work is aimed to visualize in augmented reality "Yaoyorozunokami"(millions of god), the various gods in whom Japanese people has believed since ancient times.
Particulary spirits "Chi" has been believed to dwell in natural objects, both animate and inanimate objects., and the appearance of their mighty power is called "Chihayaburu".
In this work, I put the QR code on the wall and the ground, which are the major elements that compose of the space, to express spirits flowing around from the objects and released from them with music.

A moving theater Truck loaded with Taiwanese Opera Theater carries the degeneration and chaos of the traditional values.
The phrase "禮崩樂壞" is an ancient Chinese idiom that translates to "the collapse of tradition and the destruction of music". It suggests that in the chaotic situation of modern society, people no longer give importance to traditional values.
This AR work is about people's adaptability to rapidly changing values. Using the form of the traditional Taiwanese Opera, this work is about the idea when the traditional values collapse as a natural phenomenon, how can we human try to adapt this in an absurd, unbalanced and kind of chaotic way. The virtual opera truck stands around 40-50cm height. When viewers try to watch the opera, they got to bend over while they follow the moving truck.

Augmented Reality as a continuation of the transportation act
We are proudly announce to conduct Tokimeki(heart-pounding) Transport rookie training. Since our establishment at the end of the Edo period, we, Tokimeki Transport, have been proposing to society our feeling of distance and time as “a transport company that transforms the gap as its into the Tokimeki.” This year’s Tokimeki Transport rookie training program will take place in Ueno, where our company was founded. The content of the training went back to the original point of our origin, “Box Carrying”. You are going to take a box at the “Inuzuka Shoten” fish store in Ameyoko, which has been around since the black market days, and walk around town reading the slip and deliver the box to it’s warehouse “Inuzuka Building”, not far from there. Please read the QR code in the box once it has been successfully delivered. Voices and memories of the city will appear in a room of the old building. If you find something exciting there, it will become an important core of your work in the future.
You can experience this AR work only during the exhibition period. Please check the following URL for the dates and details of our rookie training.

An object appeared in a vacant land, what is happening behind the ground.
There is a vacant land in town. Land for sale, land to be built on, land that is just vacant all the time and has only bare foundations and weeds. You have a ticket to call an individual to occupy the space on the land you like. Stand in the middle of the vacant land and bring out the AR individual. A vacant land, may or may not have an explicitly declared "vacant" period of time, is the existance buried in the city for those who do not own it and make it a destination. In the mere empty spaces between solid buildings, there are layers that we do not usually perceive and things may be happening. Contacting the expanse of space, free from human-centered time and spatial perception. Humans live in a city that is finely divided. Buildings and vacant lands also have their owners, the human body is inaccessible, but the virtual space does not yet belong to anyone.

Experience the album as a single space.
The era of the CD album has moved away, and music is now easily available for online streaming.
It has become more convenient, but in the days when CD albums were the main source of music, it was possible to physically touch and understand the artist's own sensibilities.
In this work, based on maco marets 3rd album "Circles", a new space was created by superimposing the "Laundromat", the worldview of the album, on the real world using AR technology.
This work was created by hearing the maco marets' own favorite color scheme and specifications.
I believe that AR technology can shorten the sense of distance between you and the artist by making you feel closer to the world of the album.
I would like to propose this work as a new approach to CD album promotion.

Let’s create AR content with STYLY Mobile
STYLY Mobile is a smartphone application that allows you to experience AR scenes delivered to STYLY by loading markers called “STYLY markers” in STYLY Mobile. In the future, users will be able to experience VR scenes delivered to STYLY on STYLY Mobile.
STYLY is a VR/AR/MR creative platform of space expressions for artists, allowing them to create conceptual shop spaces, installations, galleries and other spaces that express the artist’s imagination in unlimited ways. It is also possible to share experiences that have never been possible in reality to the world of the Internet through this space.
You can create xR space using only a web browser, and it is compatible with Mac and Windows, and it can be used on any PC even on non-VR-compatible PCs. In addition, since it is linked with 3D software such as MAYA and Blender, as well as services such as Youtube and SoundCloud, it is possible to import various materials and utilize them for space creation without complicated operations.
