GINZA 456 ＆ teamLab：Catching and Collecting Flutter of Butterflies Beyond Borders
The world brought about by 5G will be a borderless world. The boundaries between the real world and the digital world will disappear, as will the boundaries between the world and language. KDDI and teamLab started this project in order to let you experience such a future.

Until now, the world of your physical body has been the real world, and the world inside your smartphone has been the digital world. The digital world is entered through the screen of your smartphone. However, in the borderless world brought about by 5G, the boundary between the real world and the digital world will disappear.

This exhibition at GINZA 456, Catching and Collecting Flutter of Butterflies Beyond Borders is a new learning project based on the concept of Catch, Study, Release, in which people explore the world with their bodies, discovering, catching, and broadening their interests based on what they catch. Explore with the dedicated smartphone application for GINZA 456, capture various butterflies, study them, and create your very own collection book.

Butterflies move between the physical world and the world in your smartphone without boundaries.

With the power of "communication" and "creativity," we will turn imagination into experience.

Catching and Collecting Flutter of Butterflies Beyond Borders

The Catching and Collecting Flutter of Butterflies Beyond Borders is a new learning project based on the concept of Catch, Study, Release, in which people explore the world with their bodies, discovering, catching, and broadening their interests based on what they catch. Explore with your smartphone app, capture various butterflies, study them, and create your very own collection book.

Various butterflies live in the forests. When you touch a butterfly, it will escape and fly away.

Download the dedicated smartphone application for GINZA 456 & teamLab.When you use your smartphone's camera to look at a butterfly moving in the space, and then shoot a "study arrow" at the butterfly in the camera’s view, the arrow flies out from your phone into the real space. When the butterfly is hit by the arrow, it disappears from the space and is added to your smartphone’s collection. Information about the butterfly you capture will be stored in the app's collection book.

When you throw a captured butterfly towards a location you can see in the app’s camera, the butterfly is released and returns to that location.

The more you capture the same butterfly, the more detailed information you can record in your collection book.

ARTIEST

teamLab

teamLab (f. 2001) is an international art collective. Their collaborative practice seeks to navigate the confluence of art, science, technology, and the natural world. Through art, the interdisciplinary group of specialists, including artists, programmers, engineers, CG animators, mathematicians, and architects, aims to explore the relationship between the self and the world, and new forms of perception.

In order to understand the world around them, people separate it into independent entities with perceived boundaries between them. teamLab seeks to transcend these boundaries in our perceptions of the world, of the relationship between the self and the world, and of the continuity of time. Everything exists in a long, fragile yet miraculous, borderless continuity.

teamLab’s works are in the permanent collection of the National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne; Art Gallery of New South Wales, Sydney; Art Gallery of South Australia, Adelaide; National Gallery of Australia, Canberra;  Amos Rex, Helsinki; Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles; Asian Art Museum, San Francisco; Borusan Contemporary Art Collection, Istanbul; and Asia Society Museum, New York, among others.
