The aim of these new experiences is to change people\u2019s values and make the world a better place.<\/p>\n<p>What was also there right from the start was the belief in the power of digital technology and in the primal power of creative collaboration. teamLab quickly became involved in numerous projects spanning diverse artistic genres. The collective grew \u2013 and is still growing \u2013 concurrently like a fungal network that is multiplying from itself and spreading across the entire world. Today, the collective has several hundred members who repeatedly join their artistic forces in changing project teams that depend on the type of project. The individual members are all experts from a range of areas.<\/p>\n<div  class='hr av-42s8bh-803135692315c428d374ba1f77730923 hr-small  avia-builder-el-6  el_before_av_hr  avia-builder-el-first '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>\u201eBy experiencing that, you might think that everything in this world may be borderless, and that the world without boundaries is beautiful.

The basic premise of its art is to explore just what digital technology can do in an artistic context. In other words, digital technology no longer needs to rely on the materials to express itself, thus enabling an infinite number of new forms of expression. Over most of human history, creative expression has been conveyed through static media, often using physical substances like canvas and color. The emergence of digital technology is allowing human expression to break free of physical constraints and to exist independently of a physical construct.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<div class=\"flex_column av_one_full flex_column_div  avia-builder-el-10  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock \"><div class=\"swe-special-images swe-special-images-2 subtitle\"><div class=\"image-container image-container-image-1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sonnenallee.sma.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/teamlab_798x547-1.jpg\" class=\"lightbox\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sonnenallee.sma.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/teamlab_798x547-1.jpg\" alt=\"teamlab borderless Nature Sustainability Art Digital\" aria-label=\"The artworks interact with the visitors and are continuously changing as a result.

A utopian superelevation, a perception-enhancing experience and an intensified encounter with our present reality \u2013 using digital media alone. Through a confluence of different disciplines, the collective manages to create something new with its joint efforts, to generate an enhanced awareness of the flow of life.

The fascinating thing is that teamLab does this directly where this continuous transformation takes place: in nature.<\/p>\n<p>An important utopian element of teamLab\u2019s art becomes apparent here: to capture the essence of nature using digital technology and transform it into art without manipulating and harming it.<\/p>\n<p>The digital representation of nature, in this case the vast rock faces, caves, woods and gardens of the spiritual sanctuary Mifuneyama, encourages visitors to think about the significance of the continuity of life.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<div  class='avia-video av-kd027jkm-b7e00950172ea9f10d688b5855455744 avia-video-16-9 av-no-preview-image avia-video-load-always av-lazyload-immediate av-lazyload-video-embed'  itemprop=\"video\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/VideoObject\"  data-original_url='https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=nmCaGTKxy54'><script type='text\/html' class='av-video-tmpl'><div class='avia-iframe-wrap'><iframe title=\"teamLab: A Forest Where Gods Live - earth music&amp;ecology\" width=\"1500\" height=\"844\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/nmCaGTKxy54?feature=oembed&autoplay=0&loop=0&controls=1&mute=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div><\/script><div class='av-click-to-play-overlay'><div class=\"avia_playpause_icon\"><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-hm5a1-4-50d773936cf112ce203272349c63287a'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p><strong>The presence of others as a positive experience<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>teamLab uses digital technology to create interactive art that treats people as part of the artwork and makes them part of something whole. A basic characteristic of interactive art is that the existence and behavior of the beholder can influence the art, thus blurring the boundaries between art and the observer. The artwork consists of both the art itself and the observer. This creates a shift in the relationship between the art and the observer, and between the individual observer and the group. Suddenly, certain factors become important \u2013 such as the question of whether there were visitors looking at the work five minutes ago, or what the visitor next to you is doing right now. This gives the art the ability to influence the relationships between the observers standing in front of it. And if the presence of another person has a positive effect on the art, it is possible for the presence of this person to be a positive experience in and of itself. The other is no longer regarded as a disturbance, but as an enrichment.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-hm5a1-3-78c0b0e74c24fa69874ebdfc9305f7ed'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>A small slide show of great artworks<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<div  class='avia-content-slider-element-container av-kd032tzl-ba9f694e29657b08f444ff813c23fdc7 avia-content-slider-element-slider avia-content-slider avia-smallarrow-slider avia-content-slider-active avia-content-slider-odd  avia-builder-el-15  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock  av-slideshow-ui av-control-default av-nav-arrows-visible av-nav-dots-visible av-no-slider-navigation av-slideshow-manual av-loop-once av-loop-manual-endless avia-content-slider1' data-slideshow-options=\"{&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;slide&quot;,&quot;autoplay&quot;:false,&quot;loop_autoplay&quot;:&quot;once&quot;,&quot;interval&quot;:3,&quot;loop_manual&quot;:&quot;manual-endless&quot;,&quot;autoplay_stopper&quot;:false,&quot;noNavigation&quot;:false,&quot;bg_slider&quot;:false,&quot;keep_padding&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;hoverpause&quot;:false,&quot;show_slide_delay&quot;:30}\"><div class='avia-smallarrow-slider-heading  no-content-slider-heading '><div class='new-special-heading'>&nbsp;<\/div><div class='avia-slideshow-arrows avia-slideshow-controls' ><a href='#prev' class='prev-slide ' aria-hidden='true' data-av_icon='\ue87c' data-av_iconfont='entypo-fontello'  tabindex='-1'>Previous<\/a><a href='#next' class='next-slide ' aria-hidden='true' data-av_icon='\ue87d' data-av_iconfont='entypo-fontello'  tabindex='-1'>Next<\/a><\/div><\/div><div class=\"avia-content-slider-inner\"><div class=\"slide-entry-wrap\"><section class='slide-entry av-363ks3-ea93a858405f22d2e2c2afa62bb907cf flex_column av_fullwidth post-entry slide-entry-overview slide-loop-1 slide-parity-odd  first'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='slide-entry-excerpt entry-content'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-3111 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/sonnenallee.sma.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Teamlab_Nature_Art_Sustainability.png\" alt=\"Teamlab Nature Art Sustainability\" width=\"798\" height=\"547\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sonnenallee.sma.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Teamlab_Nature_Art_Sustainability.png 798w, https:\/\/sonnenallee.sma.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Teamlab_Nature_Art_Sustainability-300x206.png 300w, https:\/\/sonnenallee.sma.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Teamlab_Nature_Art_Sustainability-768x526.png 768w, https:\/\/sonnenallee.sma.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Teamlab_Nature_Art_Sustainability-705x483.png 705w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 798px) 100vw, 798px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em style=\"font-size: 13px; font-style: normal; margin: -15px 0 15px 0; float: right; width: 100%; text-align: right;\">teamLab Planets, Tokyo \u00a9 teamLab<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"font-size: 20px; clear: both;\">Drawing on the Water Surface Created by the Dance of Koi and People \u2013 Infinity<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A feast for the senses: Visitors walk across real water right in the middle of the museum.
