Soap bubbles and sound harmonize to compose an immersive sound installation. In March 2019, this became the first work in the world to program together immersive sound with live electronic music and soap bubbles. In further evolution from his previous works, such as a permanent exhibition at Miraikan - National Museum of Emerging Science and Innovation, and audio-visual presentation at SXSW 2019, this work will include 15- minute long live performances that will interact with audience and evoke a sense of cohesion. Through an unconventional, yet ambient, mesmerizing atmosphere, the work will express moments of beauty and fading ephemerality, asking the audience the meaning of life and existence.
