The "SUBARU NEW LEGACY Projection Installation" was an innovative approach to the Subaru Legacy and its appeal, a technology installation that received great acclaim from Subaru clients. Created for the Chicago Auto Show, the projection installation creates a virtual reality environment by projecting onto three screens, providing an immersive, experiential experience in a futuristic world. The Subaru Legacy is Subaru Motor Corporation's mid-size sedan, a high-performance vehicle that combines cutting-edge technology and design. The Subaru New Legacy Projection Installation, created from a unique perspective to maximize its appeal, left a strong impression on viewers. Creative Director Nobumichi Asai is known for his impressive work using computer graphics and technology. His work has garnered significant national and international attention and has won numerous awards.

This work is a computer-generated simulation of the workings of life, in which seven different types of life forms, each with different genes, are in a predatory relationship. They continue to live, age, die, and die in a single ecosystem. Within the limits of computer resources, each life form creates harmony and symbiosis. The computer simulation of the ecosystem of life gives us many insights into the nature of life.

About Works
This work looks at the civilization of mankind from the perspective of the evolution of 3.8 billion years of life on earth. Amoeba, amphibians, quadrupeds, apes, monkeys, human beings... The evolution of life is drawn by pantomime. Then, human beings who appeared at the end of evolution transitioned to a gathering life and a hunting life, and eventually they competed with each other and began to kill each other...
The evolution of humanity has always been with the evolution of technology and the evolution of weapons that are the product of it. And today, with advanced technologies such as nuclear, genetic engineering, and artificial intelligence, the danger of human destruction is higher than ever.
In this work, we will draw out the "barbarism" of humans as karma from the evolutionary flow of life. And where is the way to overcome it?
38億年の地上の生命の進化の流れから、人類の文明を捉え、その未来を志向する物語。アメーバから、両生類、四足動物、類人猿、サル、人類へと・・・生命の進化をパントマイムによって描いていきます。そして進化の果てに登場した人類は採集生活、狩猟生活へと移行し、やがて奪い合い、殺し合いを始め・・・。
 人類の進化は、いつもテクノロジーの進化と、その産物である武器の進化と共にありました。そして今日、核、生物兵器、人工知能といった先端テクノロジーにより、人類滅亡の危険性は今までになく高まっています。
 この作品では、生命の進化の流れの中から、人間の「業」としての「野蛮性」を描き出していきます。そして、それを乗り越えるべき、方途はどこに・・・。
About GLOBAL-CITIZENZ.COM Project
We recognize that "the world has truly become a fateful community" since the Coronavirus, and we are pursuing universal art that aims for the future of humanity, with the theme of global citizens. Hoping that the peaceful values will be transmitted and spread through the Internet, .com is attached to the project name. It was formed mainly by KYOICHI KITA, a pantomime artist who studied abroad with French master Etienne Ducre, and has been active overseas in Europe and the United States, as well as media artist NOBUMICHI ASAI who is world-famous for face mapping.
東京都のアート支援プロジェクト「アートにエールを」をキッカケに結成されたプロジェクトチーム。 コロナウィルス以降「世界は真に運命共同体になった」という認識の元、global citizenをテーマに、人類の未来を志向する普遍的なアートを追求している。ピースな価値観が、インターネットにより伝達、拡散されていくことを願い、プロジェクト名に.com付している。フランスの巨匠エティエンヌ・ドゥクルー に師事し、ヨーロッパ・アメリカなど海外で活躍してきたパントマイマーKYOICHI KITAと、フェイスマッピングで世界的に知られるメディアアーティストNOBUMICHI ASAIらが中心となって結成された。

From the new album 'One Hundred Billions Sparks', released 20 Sept. Pre-order with tour tickets from Max Cooper's official store: MaxCooper.lnk.to/Hope
I’m excited to show you this new video project, the first preview of my new AV album coming out on the 20th of Sep this year. Every track on the album was created with a visual story in mind, and scored to that aesthetic and narrative. I then collaborated with different visual artists for each chapter. The album is called “one hundred billion sparks”, referring to the action of the hundred billion neurones which make us, us. And this single release is a chapter called “hope”.
Hope comes early in the story of one hundred billion sparks, when we’re looking at the molecular mechanisms which create our experience. I spent a long time chatting to the video creator, Thomas Vanz, about action potentials, and neuronal signal transmission, so that he could interpret the process using his visual systems. We linked the idea of hope, in a personal, human sense, to the journey every ion has to make across the neuronal membrane – an infinitesimal part of the most complex machine, with each particle striving for it’s destination, driven by the charge gradient across the membrane. It’s not biologically accurate of course, it’s an epic-scale dramatisation of a fundamental process that is making you aware of reading this right now. Once again, borrowing beautiful ideas from nature for my music video projects!
Musically, I attempted an honest rendering of hope. Our experience of the difficulties of real life, combined with our capacity to imagine something better. I tried to find a way to capture that feeling tonally. Music can be quite a blunt form of communication in some ways, but hopefully you can hear the message in there. That’s also why I kept the whole thing stripped back to only a few elements, and without much percussion or any detailing, in order to try and maintain the clarity of that simple message, which is so hard to put into words, but can be richly expressed with music.
One interesting thing to add is that this epic journey of the ion as part of neuronal action, is driven by electromagnetic forces, of which the force carrier is the virtual photon, or light. So it’s not just a name I chose to sound nice, we really are one hundred billion sparks.

ps special thanks to Thomas Nau for linking up this project collaboration, without which it never would have happened!
Thomas Vanz: "Hope is a visual poem about the journey of a thought, with a scale transposition to the gigantic/cosmic, it tries to represent the brain's complexity and the birth of a feeling, as a charged particle travels through neuron and gives the power to create information and emotion.
It has been made using real shots of macroscopic chemical reactions, recorded with a 8k camera, with a 100mm macro lens, that turn the shooting into a microscopic observation and permitting to avoid CGI most of the time. Using this process allowed me to conceive the most complex figures possible, without getting rid of the natural beauty, and the extreme complexity of the neuronal system."
