Team Lab Digital Art Museum
Breakfast: Nigiri (rice ball), miso soup, apple juice
9:00 AM We left for Team Lab digital museum on the Kasuga Metro line which was right across the street from our Toyoko Inn.
We'd been to a couple of other teamLab digital museums and were looking forward to seeing this new one at Azabudai Hills.
Art had bought tickets online and the QR codes were sent to us just the day before.
It really was a lot of fun.
We bought the ice cream and tea to see the digital effects on it.
The digital branches, leaves and flowers would grow on the surface of your tea and ice cream. It was mesmerizing to watch.
Everything was light, colors and movement.
We were there for three hours!
We were told that we might not see cherry blossoms since they'd started blooming a couple of weeks before we'd arrived.
However, there it was! Absolutely beautiful.
And yup. We just picked up some sushi bentos for dinner and went to bed. We were tired and tomorrow would be a long train travel day from Tokyo to Kobe.
I've heard about those museums and seen lots of pictures from them but have never been in the same town when they've been there. They look spectacular to experience though so I hope someday we'll cross paths.
ReplyDeleteYou all are so modern (in the best way possible)! I have never heard of a digital museum and now am checking....

It looks like a delightful experience.
ReplyDeleteI'm not familiar with the team lab digital art museum, but it certainly looks like it would be loads of fun to visit. I'm definitely going to check it out if I ever get to visit Tokyo..... but I have no idea when that might be!
ReplyDeleteA digital art museum, how cool! Technology is leaving me behind but I do know how to use QR codes.
ReplyDeleteOh my, that really does look like so much fun! Wish I could have been with you!! Now Kay, hope you don't mind me noticing this but it says "2015" for your date instead of "2025". Hope you don't mind me pointing this out, my friend!
ReplyDeleteKay of Musing: Thank you for watching my back, Kay. I had been rushing to get my posts scheduled before my son and family arrived from overseas for a their month long stay and I’ll bet there’ll be lots more errors. I would love for you to let me know when you find one.
DeleteI've never heard of Team Lab. I will have to research it here. Didn't you suffer from vertigo a while back? Did the lights affect you?
ReplyDeleteIt sounds extraordinary and quite mind-bending.
ReplyDeleteIt sure looks like it was fun. Thanks for bringing this adventure to life with pictures and text.
ReplyDeleteThank you for introducing me/us to a digital museum. I have never heard of it before reading about it here. I hope all is well with you and your family. I hope you are having a wonderful 4th of July, my friend!!
ReplyDeleteThere's a tremendous amount that can be done with light these days.
ReplyDeleteWe should have a digital museum in Hawaii! It could be such a tropical wonder. Me thinks you will be having a fantastic visit to Japan this time.
ReplyDeleteVery interesting to have things dancing across my tea. Hmmm. Linda in Kansas
ReplyDeleteOh that digital museum is amazing. I think I would immerse myself in it and never come out!
ReplyDeleteI, too, am fascinated by the digital art museum. I tried to see if anything like that is located near us, but it seems the nearest one would be in NYC.
ReplyDeleteKay, thanks for sharing this. I'd never heard of a digital museum before... kind of reminded me of those holograms (?) on Star Trek where people could virtually live out a fantasy onboard ship.
ReplyDeleteThat museum looks amazing! I would spend lots of time there. What wonderful adventures you're having!!
