In addition to being a pioneer, it has 470 projectors spread over 10,000 square meters and 520 computers that were implemented by the artistic collective teamLab, which is the one that the urban promoter of the museum is collaborating with. All the works are made in real time, this means that they are not prerecorded.

The co-founder of teamLab, Toshiyuki Inoko, 41, explained that they had created a borderless universe composed of works of art “that travel alone, communicate with each other and sometimes mix with others”.

The collection of works of art makes you go through a day in which, according to your imagination, you experience a visual, bodily, auditory and sensory experience. In this way, with five different universes in the futuristic neighborhood of Odaiba, you can travel through a waterfall that descends at full speed through a wall that floods the room, fly through space jumping from a trampoline, walk between lamps where people can create their own art while they take a magical tea of flowers, walk in the middle of an ocean, and be part of a hundred dancers who are shown as translucent silhouettes.

The reason why they decided to introduce this new method was because the owners want to make art move people so that in this way, a perfect fusion between the public and art can be made. Its fundamental objective is to eliminate any type of borders that these two have, so that artists have the freedom they need with new technologies.

At any time, behind all this giant creation are 500 technologists: engineers, mathematicians, robotics experts, computer programmers and artists, among others who are there for any question at the end of the tour.
The entrance for the visitors has a cost of 28 dollars. So if you have a planned trip to Tokyo, do not forget to write your ‘Borderless Art’ on your list of tourist activities to visit it and live an experience
