未来の地層 Digging the Future

日本科学未来館のシンボル展示「Geo-Cosmos」の新コンテンツとなる映像作品を制作しました。大気化学学者のパウル・クルッツェン氏が提唱する「人間活動によってつくられる地層を”人新世(アントロポセン)”という新たな地質年代として位置づける」という仮説をもとに、地球の誕生から現在までを概観。特撮やアニメーション、CGなど多彩な手法を用いた映像に、環ROY + U-zhaanらの音楽を乗せ、”僕らの時代は、地球史になにを残すのだろうか?”という難解なテーマをポップに表現しました。
2019年制作

We produced a new video content for the symbol exhibit "Geo-Cosmos" at the National Museum of Emerging Science and Innovation (Miraikan). Based on the hypothesis proposed by atmospheric chemist Paul Crutzen, which positions the stratum created by human activities as a new geological epoch called the "Anthropocene," the video provides an overview of Earth's history from its birth to the present. Utilizing a variety of techniques such as special effects, animation, and CGI, the video is accompanied by music from artists like Roy + U-zhaan, expressing the complex theme of "What will our era leave in Earth's history?" in a pop manner. Created in 2019.
