From Yukihiko Yoshida: Avant-garde-like “Super-flat”, Web 2.0 media dance performance tool in Archidemo by Gekitora Gackt from “inetdance Japan”. Gekitora intends “Dance-performance that can be appreciated from any angle 360 degrees”, and does various experiments in Archidemo.

Gekitora choreographs both dancers and avatars. It is fantastic experience for him to choreograph avatars, because artist can share only pure movement of motion with many users in Internet. Now, A series of four dances can be tested with the dance-pad. A free body expression act is done in the weightless space. Those expressions reminds users of the space suit of “2001: A Space Odyssey”.

I think that Metaverse tends to imitate space recognition of the physical-world with gravity, and those expressions might be able to works in more multi-dimensional environment after the development of virtual environment, such as Second Life. This challenge produces the space recognition with the movement of the body without the wall and the floor might be a prototype of “Architecture in Metaverse”. The activity of Gekitora in the future will come to be excited.

Everyone can test it freely at NikkeiBP here.
