What is TeamLab Borderless?
"TeamLab Borderless" is a museum located in Odaiba, Tokyo.
As the name suggests, we are aiming for a borderless "one world without boundaries", and you can enjoy your work as if you were exploring.
This time, we will introduce the charm of TeamLab Borderless.
TeamLabWhat is
TeamLab is a content production company that specializes in the fusion of digital technology and art.
Using the latest technology, we are creating experience facilities that are unique in the world.
Only "teamLab Planets" in Toyosu and "teamLab Borderless" in Odaiba can see the works together in Japan.
Team lab Borderless (Odaiba) works
Let's introduce borderless works.
The feature is that it is designed on the premise of taking a walk without intentionally creating a route.
The focus is on projection mapping works that project images.
Rock-possessed waterfall for people
It is a work in which the image of the waterfall falls.
It seems that when people stand or touch the work, the flow of water changes in tandem, but it is difficult to realize because there are too many people.
If you look closely again, you can see that flowers bloom where there are people.
The illuminated side does not know much about the situation.
Crows chased, crows chased, crows chased, a space that transcends
This is my favorite work in TeamLab.
It is a work with a sense of speed in which a crow of light flies around, and it is screened in a space like a hollow small room.
Depending on the time of year, it may be shown in a large hammock-like room called a "floating nest."
In the same work, which is permanently exhibited at the "ArtScience Museum" in Singapore, it was a production where you could enter a small room and enjoy the images in all directions.
I want you to reproduce it in Japan. (It may be difficult in Japan because the number of people who can see it at one time is too small)
Movie
I took a video, but I don't think it will be transmitted well, so let's go to the site.
By the way, I'm shooting without moving the camera.
Forest of Resonating Lamp
The mirror room is lined with lantern-like lamps.
It is a space that is a mirror and you can feel the infinite expanse.
Looking at the lamp from below, it looks like this.
It was made on the island of Murano in Venice, a sacred place for glass crafts.
The color of the lamp changes at regular intervals, so the impression you see will be different.
There are also seasonal colors, and in spring it turns cherry blossoms.
The mirror in the room is a magic mirror, so you can see the inside from the outside.
Since the number of people who can enter is fixed, if the timing is not right, you will have to wait for an hour.
Infinity Crystal Universe
A large number of elongated lights are hung, and you can experience the feeling of entering the light.
There is a tablet in the corner of the room where you can operate this work, so if you find one, let's touch it.
(It seems that you can do the same from your own smartphone if you download the app, but it didn't work well with my smartphone)
Only this work is also available at Planets (Toyosu).
Light sculpture
A lot of spotlights move with music.
This is all you need to write, but you can enjoy it more than you think.
There are various patterns such as fog and color change, and the range of quality is wide, so it is recommended to take a peek every time you pass nearby.
Forest of movement
Borderless also has an area where children can enjoy themselves with peace of mind.
We have a variety of works that children will be absorbed in, such as a little athletic work and a work in which the picture you drew begins to swim.
It is a place that was born with the aim of not only having fun, but also training the child's spatial cognitive ability and creating a "creative exercise space" that grows the hippocampus of the brain.
The point is, "If you play here, it's easy to grow up to be a smart child."
Other works
In addition, about 60 works, large and small, are on display.
It seems that the road changes regularly and new works are made, so let's take a walk and enjoy.
How is it different from teamLab Planets (Toyosu)?
The differences from Toyosu's "teamLab Planets" were summarized in another article.

Time required and congestion
Required Time
TeamLab Borderless takes at least 2 hours.
It takes more time than you can imagine to see all the works, so be sure to visit with plenty of time.
Congestion
Since there is no route, the number of people will increase as time goes by.
If possible, buy a ticket for the first time you can enter in the morning.
Many people line up before the opening, so please arrive at least 20 minutes before the opening time.
Precautions for clothing
About clothes
- There are places where the floor is a mirror, so don't wear skirts.
- Since there are many works that project images, it is easy to become one with the work if you wear white clothes.
- The coin lockers in the building are free of charge, so you can leave your luggage as much as possible to make it lighter.
- You cannot enter with high heels.For the time being, rental shoes are also available. (Not good)
- There is no work that goes into the water or goes barefoot.
How to turn efficiently
In TeamLab borderless, how to get around is important.
Think of this as a theme park and act accordingly.
Basically, the strategy is to start with works that tend to have long waiting times.
Efficient way to turn
XNUMX. XNUMX.Floating nest
Please do it first.In some cases, there are days when they line up for nearly an hour.
↓
XNUMX.Lamp forest
It may line up here for almost an hour as well.It's a little far from the entrance, so I chose the second one.
↓
XNUMX. XNUMX.Crows chased, crows chased, crows chased, a space that transcends
It's not particularly lined up, but it's an easy-to-miss work, so let's keep it in the beginning.
Depending on the time of year, it may be screened in "XNUMX. Floating Nest".
↓
XNUMX.Light sculpture line
You don't have to line up here either, but it's surprisingly easy to miss.
I think that "where there are a lot of spotlights" will be conveyed to the staff.
↓
XNUMX.Then turn around as you like.
(Since the concept of the museum is also based on the premise of walking)
Even if you look at the map inside the building, you won't know where it is, so ask the local staff and go around efficiently.
I think it takes at least 2 hours to walk, 3 hours to go around normally, and 4 hours for a family.
If you want to take a break, have a cup of tea at "EN TEA HOUSE" on the 3rd floor.
The price is 500 yen for a drink, and some works can only be seen inside the store.

There is a parking lot nearby, but it is often crowded, so let's go by train.
It's about a 10-minute walk from Odaiba, so it's recommended to combine it with sightseeing spots in Odaiba.

Finally
At TeamLab Borderless, there are only works that you can't experience anywhere else.
However, if you do not turn well, it will take a long time to line up, so move firmly and systematically.
After seeing the crowded works, we recommend that you take a walk as you please.
