Generative Art Project: A Program in Partnership with the Agency for Cultural Affairs Project to Support Emerging Media Arts Creators
2025/2/15 Sat. ～ 2025/2/24 Mon.
The Generative Art Project, one of the Toda Corporation’s arts programs, explores human motion in urban spaces, creating new opportunities for communication through art that connects the creator and the viewer. In the foyer along Chuo-dori Avenue on the 4th floor of the Toda Building, inside Toda Hall & Conference Tokyo, an ultra-wide projection wall (approximately 2.8 meters high and 45 meters wide) will be maximally deployed to present a work made by a generative artist using cutting-edge technologies.
Message from curator
In present-day urban spaces, we are under observation by ubiquitous cameras and sensors continuously recording data. This project uses live camera footage as source material for generative art, revealing urban rhythms that transcend the framework of digital surveillance. By extracting usually hidden layers of data, this art offers a chance to examine our relationship with the city from multiple perspectives. Rather than making definitive statements on issues of privacy and control, the project quietly presents us with images of the “recorded city.” The process of rendering data visible facilitates new encounters with the realities of urban life, and hints at resonances between contemporary creativity and our advanced information society.
