Inside teamLab’s “Bubble Universe: Spherical Crystallized Light, Wobbling Light and Environmental Light - One Stroke” (pictured above), visitors are presented with a constellation of spherical lights that appear to have crystallized and additional lights that resemble wobbling lumps of jelly. Based on teamLab’s concept of “cognitive sculpture,” the spheres of light and light jelly do not exist as physical objects, instead they are imagined sculptures created by light, the surrounding environment and the viewer’s perception.
To create the effect of continuous light and objects, the seemingly random arrangement of spheres in the space has been mathematically derived so that, starting from any sphere, a line continuously drawn to the nearest neighbor results in a single, connected path of light that passes through every sphere exactly once, like a unicursal stroke. The resulting artwork invites the viewer in as a participant and prompts them to question what is real and what is imagined.
