2. Notice
I’m not able to speak english well.
I will try to my presentation today, in my broken english.
My first message, with apologies to Bruce Lee(李小龍),

3. self-introduction
My name:Masakazu Takasu
I’m a maker from japan.
I love [Make:]
Tokyo2009- Bay area2012 Taipei 2013 ShenZhen 2014

4. Taipei 2014 Maker’s Block MakerFaire

5. I’m here,MakerFaireTrondheim!

6. The Next….

7. Today’s Theme
1st Japanese Unique DIY Culture
2nd Prototyping Everything

8. 1st
Japanese Unique DIY Culture

9. We are fab-geeks / makers / tech-enthusiasts from
Japan.
We don’t just read or write science fiction,
we do science fiction.

10. The US creates devices for first-person
shooters;
we use them to shake hands with
virtual idols

11. Virtual Reality in Japan

12. We love to “Make: technology on our time.”

13. We love to have fun using technology
Trial and error is the best part of development.
Debugging is fun in programming, isn’t it?
It is the essence of development - so we don’t
hide our failures.

14. Stories drive our motivation
Scientist Masahiko Inami invented his Optical Camouflage
technology inspired by Ghost in the Shell.
His favorite quote: “Any sufficiently advanced technology is
indistinguishable from magic.” -Arthur C. Clarke
Engrossing stories encourage others to act.
They push fiction to become reality.

15. Stories drive our motivation
Award-winning science fiction author Hosuke Nojiri (@nojiri_h)
is also an active member of Nico-Tech.
He says “I don’t just write science fiction, I do science fiction,”
and engages in various maker activities:
• Launching homemade rockets
• Creating ornithopters shaped like underwear

16. Stories drive our motivation
Nojiri’s latest novel is a story of the future where
a Fablab style open-sourced factory develops
a spaceship and eventually achieves
spaceflight.

17. The future can work out without
silicon valley
We created the ASIMO for our longing of Astro Boy.
We long for Hatsune Miku and strive to make her real.
There is no Apple nor Google in asia.
But we do have stories - and we think that brings us very close
to the future. We walk different paths from silicon valley, but
all roads lead to the future.

18. DIY Community in Japan
• DIY Music Tune
• 1200 DIY Tunes. Every tune Over 100000 View.
• Over 500 DIY Music Maker.
•
DIY Animation,Manga
• We Japanese can make 3 hour concert.
Every song’s are DIY Tune,
Every dance’s are DIY animation,
Every cloth are DIY Manga.
•
This is voice synthesizer “HATSUNE MIKU”.

19. We love HATSUNE MIKU.
She is the Diva for the rest of us.

20. This presentation was crowdsourced
online by Japanese Makers
Our motivation is fun.
Fun is what makes the future.
We look forward to see you at
Maker Faire Tokyo 2014,November!

21. 2nd
Prototype Everything

22. ultra-technologists group
teamLab

23. About teamlab
teamLab is an ultra-technologists group
made up of information specialists including;
engineers
(user interface engineers, data base engineers,
network engineers, robot engineers, computer
vision engineers,
software architects),
mathematicians, architects, CG animators, web
designers, graphic designers, artists, and editors.
400 employees work in tokyo. 70% engineers.

24. Characteristic of teamLab
Creation without boundaries
between Design and Art

25. There is not much of a border between
Design and Art because we focus on the
digital domain.
We sell art works at the top world art
markets, such as Art Basel. We also find
solutions for new products.

26. Example

27. Technology, Design, Art, Science.
27

28. We are creating works through
"experimentation and innovation"
making the borders between Technology,
Art, and Design more Ambiguous.

29. Example

30. Example

31. Example

32. Today’s theme
Prototyping methods
Multi diciplinary co-working
Interactive design from Japan

33. Example
Sketch Aqualium

34. Theme
How to Make Educational
by Technology and Art.

35. Theme
Today's children is always
using smartphone and pad.

36. For the children,
Digital world is fun.
Real world is too boreing.

37. On the TV,
Mario and Angry bird are jump,play with friend.
But child is lie down.
These are bad things for growth.

38. teamLab future park
We maid it “Real Super Mario World”!
To play with friends using the brain and
physical.

39. Example
Hopscotch for Geniuses

40. Example
Sketch Aqualium

41. Example
Sketch Aqualium

42. Concept
Co-Creative by children
-A line drawing for coloring
-Physical drawing
-Every drawing in same Big screen
-Aqualium by Everybody

43. Augmented Field
Silicon Valley way is Augmented Human.
Empowerment myself.
Our way is Augmented Field.
Empowerment people together.
Person People

44. Team Sketch Aqualium
Drawer (U.K)
Graphic Designer(Japanse)
Computer Vision engineer(Japanese)
Unity 3D engineer(Japanse)
Around 2 month.

45. 1st Prototype
Image by Drawer

46. Adam Booth(Drawer)
Adam Booth is an English-born master of
Nihonga, a kind of painting that uses
traditional Japanese methods and styles.

47. 2nd Prototype
Make 16m 3D world
by Unity3D engineer.

48. Sugi-cho(Unity3D engineer)
Sugi-cho is an Graduation of Technology
polytechnique and Art university.
He is founder of our interactiveTeam.

49. 3rd Prototype
More visual effect,light, perspective
by Unity3D engineer and Designer.
Before effect
After effect

50. 4th Prototype
Move and Visual design by engineer and
mathematics
pos.x = A * sin(t);
pos.y =
B * noise(pos.x,t);
pos.z =
C * cos(pos.x/C+t);
noise(x,y):

51. 5th Prototype
Algorithm
Fish swim aim target
Same shape fish
same target,
making squadron
Escape from the Shark
When Escape and Find
food are more fast.

52. 6th Prototype
Visual and Move Making(important!)
Understandable, Look so good,not borling
Every moveing has meaningful.
Meaningless moveing is borling.
Still same move is borling.

53. 7th Prototype
Interaction Design
How to get drawing in display
The fishes are touchable?
The fishes eyes are able to see us?
How to connect Virtual and Physical.

54. 8th Prototype
Choose tool
We use scanner and IR Camera.

55. Example
Sketch Aqualium

56. How to Multi diciplinary co-working?
Prototype is best way,not need language.
“Two heads are better than one.”
Don’t think alone,All right!

57. One More Thing
Make:technology on my time
I told about our business product.
But next thing is not out business Prototypeing,
Made by only our mind.

58. This is our toilet.
Our office toilet is few.
Typical Enginner is male.
Toilet for male always under heavy
traffic.

59. Heaven’s door
An engineer want is "don't stop my hacking".
An engineer want to recognize his toilet are “open"
or “closed" at his desk.
Therefore we made it.

60. Toilet door

61. With mouce

62. Click!
Click by door!

63. The mouse send a toilet situation to
server.
toilet
Server (laptop)
Apache web server

64. heaven's door is browser extension.
Become a able to knowing toilet situation
when still my eyes gazing computer.
1 click change few second.

65. Do It With Others
Heaven’s door

66. Do It With Others “heaven’s door”
@nazoking
I make it web user interface!
When toilet open,send alert from web page.

67. Do It With Others “heaven’s door”
Other Enginner makes:
Heaven's door become adapt cacti
(network graphing solution).
We can recognise heavy traffic time.

68. We are the Future!
