With the breakneck speed that Silicon Valley is moving, sometimes an opportune moment presents itself to stop and step aside to view something else from another perspective. At the Pace Art + Technology center, teamLab, a team of Japanese artists that focus on a harmonious circle uniting art, design, and technology, presented scaled media using modern technology, social integration of human involvement, and progressive innovation.

Crystal Universe (2015)



The most enjoyable feature of this exhibition is determining an equilibrium for the senses, for the visual sensation, for tactile approaches, direct interaction with exhibits and indirect responses to people's reactions.

I also visited the kid space in a separate building, and enjoyed coloring a fish, scanning it, and seeing it swim and dance on a seascape on a wall in a room.
