An honor for the AVA Animation & Visual Arts Inc team to collaborate once again with Director Michiyuki Ishita on the Tokyo Night and Light project.

“Eudaimonia” is a form of happiness, but not the kind obtained by avoiding suffering and seeking pleasure, but rather the one that comes from consciously trying to be better each day. The sense of joy that comes from living life with a “good spirit” by working daily on doing our best, no matter the circumstances, leads us to the highest and most lasting form of personal and collective happiness. "Eudaimonia" was commissioned by the Tokyo Lights Festival, where we had the honour to participate as guest artists and Judges. With this theme, we tried to imagine how our invisible connections could look, like a complex puzzle of mechanisms and dominoes. We tried to visualize how a good action can spark a mesmerizing chain reaction of positive consequences and how happiness can be contagious and change the world's colors. We tried to materialize gardens of joy and the shapes of the future that humans could build together for the greater good. #projectionmapping #projection #tokyo #videomapping

Another year, another successful edition of "Light up the Dark" at the Aga Khan Museum! Once again, we had the opportunity to collaborate with OCAD University alumni and share our love for projection mapping through our content-creating workshops. Together, we transformed the museum facade and engaged the audience with stunning art. Special thanks to Philippe Blanchard, Chair of Integrated Media and Digital Painting & Expanded Animation at OCAD university (DPXA), Sasha Priewe and Marianne Fenton from the Aga Khan Museum for their trust and to all the artists for their hard work: Belinda Zhang Derya Ozparlak Ghazal Vakilzadeh Isaac King Marcella Moliner Peter Rahul Teodora Pencheva Tommy Truong Vladimir Kanic Yiyun Zhang #projectionmapping #videomapping #mapping
