teamLab通過藝術作品《Matter is Void》，探索着所有權的概念。

這是一個NFT作品。這個作品只有一個NFT，但這並不意味着它是獨一無二的。無論是誰無論是多少人，都可以下載並擁有這件作品。換句話說，無論是否擁有該作品的NFT，被下載的作品都是相同的，它們都是真品。

作品顯示的是由teamLab選擇的文字“Matter is Void”。只有NFT所有者可以任意修改文字，而修改後的文字將反映在世界各地的人下載的作品中。

根據NFT所有者選擇的文字，作品的價值將發生變化。如果NFT所有者改寫的文字具有價值，更多的人可能會選擇擁有該作品；而如果這些文字不具有價值，人們可能不再選擇展示該作品。改寫一個很多人看的作品的文字可能有很大的價值，反之，改寫一個不受人關注的作品的文字則沒有什麼價值。這也就是說，根據NFT所有者改寫的文字，這件NFT作品的價值也可能發生變化。

此外，即使NFT所有者在將文字改寫成其他文字后，重新將其改回 "Matter is Void"，這些文字也會呈現出不同於初始的狀態。最初的 "Matter is Void "一旦被修改，將無法再看到相同的狀態。


被寫在作品中的文字，會不斷地公轉和自轉。不停旋轉的文字，我們也許能在某些角度認出它們，也可能會在某些瞬間辨認出文字的整體含義，接着它們又會再一次變回難以辨認的文字。文字的公轉，在視覺上既是順時針的，又是逆時針的，它會隨着觀賞者的意識，呈現向左方向或向右方向旋轉的形態。

Multiple seasons exist simultaneously, changing gradually across the installation space. The seasonal flowers repeat the cycle of life and death in perpetuity, and the places where they grow change. When people touch the flowers, the petals scatter, and when they keep their hands still, more flowers begin to grow.
The world of the artwork changes with the real flow of time of its location. The artwork grows brighter as the sun rises and darker when the sun sets. 
The time experienced by the viewer’s body, the time of the location, and the time of the flower's repeating the cycle of life and death, all intersect and overlap, whilst remaining connected to the body, the place, and the world of the artwork. In the artwork space different times and spaces overlap.
The artwork is not a pre-recorded image that is played back; it is created by a computer program that continuously renders the work in real time. The interaction between people and the installation causes continuous change in the artwork, so previous visual states can never be replicated, and will never reoccur. The picture at this moment can never be seen again.

The contours of life’s existence are not the surface boundary of the body, but something ambiguous that includes the environment that is continuous with it.
As long as people live, they dissipate energy and affect the environment, such as the flow of air.
In this artwork, the existence of a person is depicted through the energy dissipated by people into the world for as long as they live.

Being consists of the mind, the body, and the environment that is continuous with them.

Objects like stones and man-made creations so far have maintained a stable structure on their own. But life is different. Whereas a stone can continue to exist in a closed box, sealed off from the outside world, life would cease to exist.

Life is like a vortex created in the ocean. A vortex forms and exists in a flow of matter, and the boundaries of its existence are ambiguous.  

Although a vortex is steady, it is constantly moving and swelling like a powerful life-form. The vortex cannot maintain a stable structure on its own; rather, it is created and sustained by water that continuously flows inwards and outwards.

The same is true of life. It consumes external matter and energy as food and discharges it, sustaining its ordered structure as the energy dissipates. In other words, life does not exist by itself. It is the environment that is continuous with it that maintains the structure of life.

Life is a miraculous phenomenon that emerges from a flow in an open world. Like an ocean vortex, it is an existence with ambiguous boundaries in an infinite continuity.

To be alive is to be inseparable from the world, constantly dissipating energy into it.

自律抽象畫。
光點存在固有的明暗與色相周期。彼此靠近的光點之間會出現同步現像，彼此靠近的光點的明暗節奏和色相會逐漸接近。人如果接觸這些光點，光點的明暗與色相周期就會產生變化變得各不相同，之後彼此靠近的光點間的明暗節奏和色相會再次逐漸接近。
每個光點在每次明暗閃爍時都會響起一個音調。空間中，只有這些音調串聯後發出的聲音，而我們在這個空間裡感知到的音樂，也只是由明暗閃爍串聯起來的音調而形成的。

同步現像是指不同的節奏之間相互影響從而變得一致。比如，掛在牆上的兩個掛鐘的鐘擺會逐漸同步擺動。眾多螢火蟲聚集在一棵樹上時，會同步閃爍並產生更大的光亮。構成心髒的細胞們同步律動使得心髒得以產生跳動。這種影響在物理現像、神經生理學、生命系統和生態學等許多領域與系統中都可以見到。即使每個個體不具備審視整體的能力，也會由於個體的自律行為最終形成一個有秩序的大結構。這種自發地生成秩序的現像可以稱之為自組織現像。

在宇宙中，熵（用於表示物質系統無序程度的物理量）只會保持不變或增加（熵增定律），物質或系統則會在這個過程中逐漸崩潰。但盡管如此，太陽誕生、行星誕生、生命出現、社會存在，這些事情想來都是非常不可思議的。宇宙中的生命，自然與社會之所以依舊得以成立，大概就是因為在向失序發展的同時，仍然有自組織的現像的普遍存在，使得秩序能夠得以生成吧。也就是說，這個宇宙，以及自我的存在，也都是由同一個現像、持續不斷地產生的秩序。
