teamLab: Resonating Life in the Acorn Forest

The Kadokawa Culture Museum calls the collection of oaks and other deciduous broadleaf trees of Musashino the Musashino Woods. These Musashino Woods transition through the greens of spring and summer, display beautiful autumnal leaves from fall until early winter, and are home to ripe acorns in autumn.

Deciduous broadleaf forests were widespread in Japan during the Jomon Period. These forests were home to acorn-bearing trees, and acorns were a major food source for the Jomon people. During the Jomon Period, many people existed alongside the acorn forests, living easily with this abundant food source.

teamLab’s Digitized Nature art project uses non-material digital technology to transform nature into art without having a physical impact on it.

teamLab: Resonating Life in the Acorn Forest will transform the acorn forests of Musashino into an interactive art space which changes due to the presence of people.

Artwork

Resonating Microcosms - Liquified Light Color, Dusk to Dawn

With sunrise, the ovoids begin to reflect the world around them. When pushed down by a person or blown by the wind, the ovoids fall back and then rise releasing a resonating tone. The ovoids around it also respond one after another, continuing to resonate with the same tone.

As the sun sets, the ovoids shine by themselves. When an ovoid is pushed by a person or blown by the wind it falls down and then rises, a sound resonates out, and it emits a light color specific to the sound. The ovoids around it also respond one after another, making the same tone sound, and emitting the same light color that continues to resonate out. And the surrounding Resonating Trees also respond and change continuously.

The ovoids begin to flicker slowly when the wind is quiet and people do not push them.
Because the ovoid colors are produced by light, it is possible for them to change into liquified light colors.

Resonating Trees

The trees shine brightly. The light of each tree is autonomous, blinking as if breathing slowly.
The light transmitted from Resonating Microcosms - Liquified Light Color, Sunrise and Sunset causes the trees’ lights to change color, and a tone specific to that color resonates out. The light of a tree is transmitted to the surrounding trees one by one, continuously emitting the same tone.
If a wave of light comes from the other side, it signifies the presence of people there. People gain a heightened sense of awareness of the existence of other people in the same space.

Heading to Saitama, the 'teamLab: Resonating Life in the Acorn Forest should be at the top of your VIP priority list. Visit Tokorozawa’s Musashino Woods to see this constantly changing Digitised Nature exhibition which evolves with the presence of people. Forests like this were one of the primary food sources to people in the Jomon period (14,000 - 300 BCE) who lived in harmony with nature and this exhibition wants to celebrate that deep connection. Using digital technology, nature is transformed into interactive art you can be a part of. (Excerpt from the text)

Kadokawa Culture Museum: Landmark by Kengo Kuma Offers Limitless Discoveries

Within a 10-minute walk from the Higashi-Tokorozawa Station on the JR Musashino Line, an impressive, irregular-looking granite structure looms over a slightly elevated hill. Surely, it is a man-made building. But for a split second, the structure looks more like an unusual tectonic mass created by mother nature herself. A closer look gradually reveals its multi-dimensional façade, alongside a shallow pool reflecting its image — a striking contrast against the suburban landscape. (Excerpt from the text)

ARTISTA

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.
