This installation utilizes antibubbles in water as a medium. Through computationally controlled droplets, the antibubbles form various patterns on the water’s surface. Then they start to float in the water and disappear after a while. These periodic phenomena shows continuous morphing from computationally controlled forms to organic ones mediated by the environment.

What were the earliest musical Instruments of mankind? How did humanity start enjoying music? This work attempts to transform emotions into simple signals produced by blowing air on bottlenecks, which is directly controlled by brain waves. Like the hand of a pioneer musician, the users explore the boundary between sound and emotion with their brain waves.
