Why We Wanted Android Communication to Convey a Dialogue with the Future
How can you tell the depth of non-linguistic communication using the work?
I felt that it is difficult every day. However, I think that this is how to interact with the future.
I, Akane Kikuchi continues to convey “Shosa” as one of the communication methods using physical behavior, which do not rely only on words. It is not easy to understand because it is a concept of non-language that is not a word.
This autumn, I went to the place where you can experience Shosa.
It is a place where you can actually understand what communication is not using words, and I am looking forward to publishing it.
Shosa Future ue
It is an installation work that explores the expression of human mind byRobot robots and works created by encountering Kikuchi and Ishiguro.
You can get a chance to think from a new perspective about the “beauty of mind” and the “beauty of mind” of human beings through the “work” which is a way of expressing mind.
It is an attempt to convey the spirit behind the scenes to the future generations and the world with further creativity.

Future 、ue is an installation that interacts with Android. Android will talk to you, so let’s mimic it. The light and sound of the room are changed in conjunction with the depth of communication.
The light and music of the room express how harmonious your mind with Android. WhenAndroid feels harmonious, the color and size of the space, the speed of the sound and the sound floor change. It is designed so that the heart of harmony is swelling. Enjoy non-linguistic communication with Android, aiming for more heart-blowing communication.
There are other works that change the light of the space according to human movement. However, this is the first attempt to read and reflect changes in mind from movement, not only to adapt to movement.
How rich can I communicate with other people without using words? I think that the ability to interact in non-language is the power required for this future, which is becoming more and more popular.
Future Homeue Experience the communication using Shosa.
