DAY1_B：pray with kodou: Imagining the Light of Life (with Kosuke Matsushima)


All things, big or small, are in constant flux, swaying and flickering. Life, too, vibrates from deep within. What does it mean to immerse yourself in the gentle life of the inner, in this age filled with stimuli from the outer? Our participatory art project “pray with kodou” uses little spheres that link to and radiate the light of your heartbeat: a way to sense the calm beats of your life in the dark and pray. This time, we will be using our new iPhone app to allows us to connect to people’s heartbeats beyond borders and cultures. Join us for this interactive art session – to imagine: “What if life was light?
